Lies of P

Lies of P is a remarkable soulslike from Neowiz that takes the familiar Pinocchio story and transforms it into a dark, atmospheric adventure set in the fictional city of Krat. The game's central mechanic — lying — has meaningful consequences that ripple through its narrative in unexpected ways. Combat channels the best of the genre while adding its own wrinkle: a weapon assembly system that lets you mix and match blades and handles to create your ideal build. Its surprisingly affecting story and polished production raised the bar for soulslike games not made by FromSoftware.
