About the story
Lies of P is set in the late 19th Century to the early 20th Century of the Belle Époque Era in Europe within a city called Krat. The city of Krat was once a beautiful place but has now become lost and turned into a living hell that is filled with unspeakable horrors due to a deadly plague. Krat is featured as a grim city where multiple automatons now roam almost every part of the center, from the streets, rooftops, alleyways, and within buildings. As you start your adventure in Lies of P, you play as the puppet mechanoid Pinocchio who awakens in an abandoned train station not knowing where he has come from and what his purpose is. As we all know the famous fable of Pinocchio, Mr. Geppetto carved a wooden puppet named Pinocchio and was visited by the Blue Fairy who granted Mr. Geppetto's wish by transforming the puppet into a living being, that being said, Pinocchio sets forth into reaching his goal of becoming a real boy.

By Ben RaynerLies of P is an addictive Soulslike with a unique take on the genre and is certainly one not to be missed (especially if you have Game Pass).
Pixel Arts
By Danial DehghaniLies of P is one of the successful titles inspired by FromSoftware Games. This game borrows bold features from beloved titles and by combining them with a series of interesting innovations in the heart of a classic and familiar story that is memorable to us but we have never seen it in the way that Lies of Pi depicts, to It finds a formula that guarantees its success. If you are a fan of FromSoftware games or in general, you want a hard and challenging but exciting and high-quality action role-playing game, you should not miss Lies of P!

By Eser GüvenTake our word for it, this is the best soulsborne clone we have until From Software does better. This is a great game that has done its homework and successfully applied its own touch to the genre without being lazy.

By Luis AlvaroFor those willing to overlook its shortcomings, the game provides a unique, albeit flawed, experience that adds a new chapter to the ever-expanding Souls-like genre.
