Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Telling Lies (stylized as telling l!es) is a Full Motion Video Interactive Fiction game, developed by Sam Barlow and Furious Bee, and published by Annapurna Interactive.You have obtained a hard-drive from the National Security Agency that contains hundreds of videos of calls and recordings taken on the phones of four individuals over the course of two years. You must search through the database to figure out why the four central characters have been the subject of electronic surveillance, as well as the nature of the player-character's role in these events. However, each video you uncover only contains one side of a conversation, requiring the player to find the complementary video to fully understand the conversation.Telling Lies is the Spiritual Successor to Sam Barlow's previous game Her Story, with a similar presentation and highly similar gameplay. It also expanded the scale - while Her Story has just under two hours worth of video to watch, Telling Lies has about 10. Additionally, Telling Lies has a diverse range of filming locations and stars a wide cast of actors, whereas Her Story was restricted to one location and only had one actor.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })This game stars the talents of Logan Marshall-Green, Alexandra Shipp, Kerry Bishé and Angela Sarafyan.As a large part of this game involves figuring out what's going on and who the characters are, details as small as a character's name can damage the experience, as such there will be unmarked heavy spoilers below; read at your own risk.

Age-Gap Romance: David and Ava have at least 10 years difference in age. In one video, it is said that the FBI chose Ava because of her likeliness to be interested in an older man.

Alone with the Psycho: Emma believed she was in this type of relationship with David after she saw him kill her abusive, staklerish ex Paul. She then married out of fear and pretended to be the perfect wife out of fear, but by the time you spy on their personal videos, she is tired of living the lie and starts to openly defy him. The fact that he is also away on a deep cover mission for the FBI makes it easier for her.
