However, these clips only provide the video and audio from one side of the conversation, requiring the player to determine which clips may match the other participants, as well as potential interactions with around 30 other people. The player has the ability to search the hundreds of video segments on keywords as to piece together timelines, events, and interactions, all to try to understand why the four central people have been the subject of electronic surveillance, as well as the nature of the player-character's role in these events this character appears female and can be seen in a virtual reflection of the in-game computer screen to the actual player. Telling Lies provides the player with numerous video segments that in the game's narrative, cover a two-year period and which have been stored on a stolen hard-drive taken from the National Security Agency.
The reflection of the player-character can be seen off the virtual monitor.īarlow describes Telling Lies as a "desktop thriller" like Her Story, where the player becomes involved in a drama that is played out through stored video clips and other information presented on a virtual computer desktop. It may even allow copy-paste.Telling Lies is played out on a virtual desktop computer screen with its own operating system. I've heard playing on a different device via XCloud is much nicer since you need to do so much typing. I personally played on Xbox with a controller and was not a fan. The game will take less than 2 hours easily using a guide, but could even be under an hour. I would like to thank Vudix for originally compiling the list of necessary search terms!
To unlock all achievements, you will need to watch every single video in the game and screw around on the desktop for some miscellaneous achievements. You need to keep watching videos that you have not seen to progress toward the end of the game (this is tracked via the clock/time moving forward as you watch new things). When you type in a word, it pops up videos where that word is said. To progress in the story, you use this database to look up search terms and watch videos of other live-action actors talking to the camera (like video calling). This strange game involves your live action character sitting at a desktop.
