"Mesopotamia-Themed Game 'My Father Lied' Launches in May"

Ahmed Alameen, a talented writer and filmmaker, is set to launch his debut point-and-click adventure game, My Father Lied, on May 30th. This narrative-driven puzzle game draws inspiration from the rich tapestry of Mesopotamian history, promising players an immersive experience filled with mystery and intrigue.

In My Father Lied, you step into the shoes of Huda, a young woman on a quest to uncover the truth behind her father's disappearance two decades ago. The journey begins when Huda discovers the existence of a brother she never knew about, prompting her to delve deeper into her father's mysterious past.

Originally conceived in collaboration with a college classmate, where Alameen served as the narrative designer, the project took a new direction when the partnership dissolved. Undeterred, Alameen embraced the challenge of game design, transforming My Father Lied into a solo endeavor.

As you navigate through the game, you'll employ point-and-click mechanics to explore captivating environments and tackle a series of puzzles. From piecing together images to cracking codes, each challenge brings you closer to unraveling the haunting secrets of Huda's world. Alameen's vision for My Father Lied blends elements from iconic games like Myst and Heaven's Vault, alongside the eerie atmosphere of H.P. Lovecraft's literary works.

To achieve high-quality visuals that are accessible even on low-end PCs, Alameen adopted a creative approach, utilizing both 2D and 360-degree images. This technique extends to the game's cutscenes, which are meticulously crafted frame by frame, ensuring a visually stunning experience.

My Father Lied will be available for purchase on the App Store, Google Play, and PC via Steam for $10.99/€10.99 starting May 30th. While you can add the game to your Steam Wishlist now, mobile pre-registration is not yet available.
