Critic Reviews
Telling Lies Review
Telling Lies has an interesting story but is let down by a lack of direction and a clunky UI design. Even interesting characters can't save the game, and a watered-down epilogue which is supposed to entice repeated playthroughs just leaves a sour taste in the mouth.
