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 as good as Her Story
This game disappointed me. It wasn’t nearly as good as Her Story. The ending is easy to reach early on in the game, and then you pretty much just need to piece the story together.
Here’s when it gets disappointing, because the story seems like a bad attempt at crime noir. The main character’s motivations seem rather stupid with little to no explanations offered. After a point, the plot gets convoluted more for the sake of drama than good storytelling.
I will, however, give kudos to the incredible actors. You might recognise a lot of them from movies/tv shows. But even good acting cannot save a lukewarm script.
Update: On seeing a YouTube video by the Questrium Channel where the videos were played side by side, the story really came alive. I wish the game had this built in, especially after you found two clips of the same conversation. It would have made the plot a lot more engaging.
