Clues can be hidden throughout clips, such as one person appearing in multiple locations.Īrrows connecting words like Government and protest, with lists of characters and their connections to one another, where they appeared, and what they were doing. For example, I collected pages and pages of notes and keywords that individuals brought up in conversations to use later to find new connections and secrets. The footage here truly feels found, which gives it a deliciously gripping overtone, as you try to watch everyone’s body language and see how they react to certain events or people, replaying clips to see if you missed something just out of focus.Īs the game doesn’t give you any kind of hint as to what you are searching for, clues and revelations come far more naturally than in Her Story. The footage is shot from their bedrooms, their cars, whilst they are out on the street, and as they are chatting to other people. Where Telling Lies exceeds Her Story is that you feel like you are getting a window into the lives of these individuals. Your goal is to search through these videos, discover the lives of four individuals, who they are, their relation to one another, who is lying and what is hiding behind those lies. You should be going into this game as blind as a bat. Other than that brief, there is nothing else you need to know about Telling Lies’ plot. A great new addition is the ability to bookmark clips making them easy to get back to, as well as applying tags to clips, granting you the valuable capability to sort through footage early on. But, there is a catch you are only able to view the first five videos that appear. For example, ‘Love’ pulls 34 videos from the database.
Much like Her Story you are able to type keywords into the database, which will list all the videos with that word in it.
Telling Lies offers more than 150 pieces of footage to sort through using strategic searches.Īnd that’s it: you are set off to control the pointer of the laptop, with not much direction other than a small document from the person who gave you access to the database. Once on, a database server called Retina appears on your desktop, allowing you to search a vault full of footage.
