Myst-Inspired Lovecraftian Adventure 'My Father Lied' Arrives on Android

In a world brimming with video games, finding a truly unique title can be challenging. My Father Lied, however, stands out with its compelling narrative and intriguing blend of mystery and Lovecraftian elements. This puzzle adventure game boasts a captivating story, making it a standout in the genre.

My Father Lied: An Indie Developer's Vision

The game's creation story is fascinating. Ahmed Alameen, the developer, initially pursued a career as a writer and filmmaker. A collaborative game project with a college friend fell through, but the underlying story remained. Driven by his vision, Alameen independently learned 3D modeling and Unreal Engine, ultimately bringing his concept to life. Even the game's title was a collaborative effort with his wife.

Unraveling the Mystery

My Father Lied plunges players into a captivating mystery steeped in ancient Mesopotamian myths. Players assume the role of Huda, a young woman grappling with a twenty-year-old question: what happened to her father? The answer, as the story unfolds, proves far from straightforward.

Blending 7,000 years of Mesopotamian culture with a modern narrative, My Father Lied offers a unique experience. The gameplay features simple point-and-click mechanics, beautiful 2D visuals, and immersive 360-degree images.
