Fatherly Deception Unveils Enigmatic Puzzler for Mobile

In a world brimming with video games, finding a truly unique experience can be challenging. My Father Lied, however, stands out with its captivating narrative. This mystery/Lovecraftian puzzle adventure isn't just another game; it's a story waiting to be uncovered.

My Father Lied: An Indie Developer's Vision

The game's creation story is as compelling as the game itself. Ahmed Alameen, the developer, initially pursued writing and filmmaking. A collaborative game project with a college friend fell through, but the core narrative remained. Alameen, driven by his vision, independently learned 3D modeling and Unreal Engine, bringing his concept to life. Even the title itself resulted from a collaborative brainstorming session with his wife.

Unraveling the Mystery

My Father Lied plunges players into a world steeped in ancient Mesopotamian myths, secrets, puzzles, and surprises. Players assume the role of Huda, a young woman grappling with a twenty-year-old mystery: the disappearance of her father. The truth, as the story unfolds, proves far more complex than anticipated.

Blending 7,000 years of Mesopotamian culture with modern storytelling, My Father Lied offers a unique blend of ancient lore and contemporary narrative. The gameplay is intuitive, featuring simple point-and-click mechanics, stunning 2D visuals, and immersive 360-degree imagery.
