Independent studio Lunar Games has unveiled My Father Lied, a first-person point-and-click mystery brimming with eerie Lovecraftian undertones. Inspired by 7,000 years of Mesopotamian history, the game follows Huda’s desperate search for answers about her father’s two-decade disappearance—unfolding through striking 2D and 360° imagery that caters to both high-end and more modest PC setups.
A free demo is available on Steam, inviting players to unravel an ancient enigma right now, while the newly released official trailer offers an alluring first glimpse into the game’s haunting atmosphere.
“I fell in love with these ancient myths and felt compelled to bring them to life,” says creator Ahmed Alameen. “With 360° visuals, optional ‘mighty puzzles’, and an emotional core story, we hope players will uncover secrets that feel both timeless and deeply personal.”
My Father Lied has been crafted in such a way to deliver an experience meant to immerse and unsettle. Balancing the heartbreak of a missing parent with the revelation of ancient lore, the game delivers narrative depth and puzzle complexity for fans of slow-burn storytelling and rich world-building alike.
Set to launch in May 2025 on PC via Steam, with a mobile release (iOS & Android) planned for a later date, the game promises to weave emotional storytelling with hidden secrets that will keep players enthralled at every turn.
Key Features:
360° Immersive Environments: The Game employs both 2D and 360° imagery to create expansive, visually captivating spaces—without overwhelming lower-spec PCs.
“Mighty Puzzles”: Optional yet challenging riddles that reward persistent problem-solvers with hidden lore and voice recordings. They deepen the mystery for those who choose to dig further—while keeping the main path accessible.
Emotional, Lore-Heavy Narrative: Discover Huda’s family secrets against a backdrop of mythic Mesopotamian elements. Expect surprising twists, eerie undertones and a story that pulls at the heartstrings.
Hand-Drawn Cutscenes & Original Soundtrack: Frame-by-frame artistry and a meticulously composed score amplify key story beats, ensuring every moment feels steeped in drama and suspense.
