Description
A Video Game About Private Conversations
An investigative thriller game with non-linear storytelling, Telling Lies revolves around a cache of secretly recorded video conversations. Starring Logan Marshall-Green, Alexandra Shipp, Kerry Bishé, Angela Sarafyan and directed by Sam Barlow, creator of Her Story and Silent Hill: Shattered Memories.
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.

Ratings and Reviews
Not finished
I haven’t finished the game so I guess these comments are probably ‘half baked’ but I agree with there not being a tutorial of some kind.
But in the instructions on how to use and arrange the videos I think I understood what the game is about.
To watch vids all the time can get a bit boring so I think there needs to be a bit more (phone calls, visits from people, other pieces of information).
Other than that I am finding it engaging and thoughtful.
Great immersive experience
Much like the previous game by this studio, the interactive design and cinematic effects definitely gave this piece of work uniqueness. It takes a bit of thinking to figure out how to piece the story together ; for those who gave low ratings just because they couldn’t understand the game please read the description before buying or see a doctor to fix their pathetic brains
A tutorial would ruin this
The whole point of this game, as with Her Story, is that figuring out what you are meant to do is part of the game.
I would call this an interactive story, rather than a game.
You don't need to be a gamer to enjoy it.
There are a whole lot of lies to sift through, to find the truth.
I was lucky and worked out the ending within an hour. Of course I then kept picking away at it to see how we got there.
I can't recommend this highly enough.
