Lies of P, an innovative interpretation of the classic tale “The Adventures of Pinocchio,” has captured the attention of gamers with its distinctive blend of narrative and gameplay elements. In this nightmarish rendition, players find themselves in the fallen utopia of Krat, a city corrupted by mechanical puppets run amok, with Geppetto, their creator, mysteriously missing. The protagonist, known simply as “P,” embarks on a quest to locate Geppetto and save the city.
This game weaves a familiar story in an unfamiliar way, drawing players into a world filled with malevolent puppets, eerie alleyways, perilous rooftops, and the grim aftermath of a corrupting Petrification Disease. The setting, inspired by France’s Belle Époque era, offers a unique blend of science and artistry, with intricate architecture and steampunk-like technology. As players explore this haunting environment, they will encounter characters reminiscent of the beloved tale, such as P (Pinocchio), Gemini (the cricket), Geppetto, and Sophia (the fairy), each contributing to character development.
Incorporating elements of the Soulslike genre, Lies of P challenges players with its high difficulty level, requiring patience, strategy, and mastery of combat mechanics. The game rewards well-timed parries and attacks, and like other titles in this genre, it punishes recklessness. The promise of unraveling the mysteries lurking within the game’s fog-covered world provides a compelling incentive to persevere.
One of the game’s intriguing features is P’s unique ability to lie, a trait unusual among puppets. Players will face moral choices where they can choose between comforting lies or unvarnished truths, adding a Soulslike layer of complexity to the narrative. Lies of P is set to launch on September 15 for Digital Deluxe Edition purchasers and will be available on Game Pass for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows starting September 19. This innovative game invites players to experience a dark and twisted adaptation of a beloved tale while embracing the challenge of the Soulslike genre.
