Web of Lies - Spreading Misinformation

Can you get yourself and your partner out of your web of lies?
You and a friend of your choice will play as 2 suspects in a mysterious murder case. You both seem to have amnesia, but are getting questioned by a sharp and fierce detective...

Can you keep your stories straight? Will you rat out your partner for a crime you might not even have done? Or will you turn on each other?

Made for Howest's Game Jam 2025.

- Instructions -

In this game, there are 2 phases: The Story Building phase and the Questioning phase.

In the Story Building phase, you have to lie and make up a story by choosing the answers given to you. In the Questioning phase, you both have to stick to the lie, and answer correctly to the detective's questions. Do not get caught in your lie!

The suspicion meter will rise when the detective thinks you’re lying. If the meter turns full, the detective will assume that you’re guilty.

As the players, you have to work together, passing the mouse between each other while answering the questions.
