About This Game

Hell of a Lie is a point-and-click adventure with detective and psychological elements where you play as a demon intern working in Hell’s bureaucracy.

Your job is to make deals for human souls. But nothing is ever simple — every person has their own fears, dreams, and weaknesses that must be uncovered first.

To close a deal, you must investigate people's lives and understand what they truly desire: love, power, success, money, revenge, or something else.

Investigate Human Stories

The gameplay focuses on investigating the lives of different people.

You will explore locations connected to each character, such as:

  • apartments

  • offices

  • streets

  • personal belongings

  • photographs

  • letters and messages

In these places you must search for hidden objects, clues, and evidence that reveal a person’s personality and hidden desires.

You may discover:

  • letters

  • photographs

  • diary entries

  • scattered objects

  • strange symbols

  • memories from the past

Every clue helps you better understand the character.

Puzzle and Deduction

Each discovered object becomes part of a larger puzzle that helps reveal what truly motivates the person.

Players must analyze information and connect clues together.

For example, finding unpaid bills, a photo of a former partner, and a diploma from an abandoned career may reveal that the character fears failure and loneliness.

Understanding these motivations is the key to making a successful deal.

Deals for Souls

After gathering enough information, you confront the person and offer them a deal.

Your offer must reflect their deepest desires and fears.

Each deal becomes a moral decision:

  • exploit their weakness

  • manipulate their dreams

  • refuse the deal

  • choose an unexpected outcome

Your choices determine the fate of the character.
