Description
Telling Lies is the new video game from Sam Barlow, creator of Her Story and Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. An investigative thriller game with non-linear storytelling, Telling Lies revolves around a cache of secretly recorded video conversations. It stars Logan Marshall-Green, Alexandra Shipp, Kerry Bishé and Angela Sarafyan.

How does it work?
Telling Lies sits you in front of an anonymous laptop loaded with a stolen NSA database full of footage. The footage covers two years in the intimate lives of four people whose stories are linked by a shocking incident. Explore the database by typing search terms, watch the clips where those words are spoken and piece together your story.
Unlike anything you've played before, Telling Lies is an intimate and intense experience. A game where you decide the truth.

I really enjoyed her story so i thought i'd give this game a shot too despite all the negative reviews. while yes, it is annoying that the clips are on average 5 minutes long, compared to 15 seconds in her story, what's
Nice & interesting, with a running time of your average feature film and way better than many A-movies. HOWEVER, the idea of having to watch one side of a dialogue (with the actor reacting for 30s to the other side's
Well, this game is exceptionally well-designed in terms of the acting, realism, and the very precise writing that's necessary to ensure the player uncovers the story gradually but reliably, but it's quite poorly
"Telling Lies" hinders the detective work due to the lack of a few key features that, in my opinion, would significantly improve the flow and clarity of the gameplay: - Enable Jump to Start: Add a quick "jump to 0:00"
