My Father Lied A Mesopotamia-themed Point and Click Title 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 puzzler draws inspiration from the rich tapestry of Mesopotamian history, offering players a unique and engaging experience.

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 mysterious disappearance two decades ago. The journey begins when Huda learns about a brother she never knew existed, prompting her to delve deeper into her father's past.

Originally, Alameen embarked on this project with a college classmate, serving as the narrative designer. When the collaboration dissolved, Alameen took it upon himself to master game design and complete the project solo.

As you navigate through My Father Lied, you'll employ point-and-click mechanics to explore intricate environments and solve a series of puzzles. From piecing together images to cracking codes, each challenge leads you closer to the truth. Alameen's game blends elements reminiscent of Myst, Heaven's Vault, and the eerie narratives of H.P. Lovecraft, creating a hauntingly beautiful world to explore.

To achieve stunning visuals that can run smoothly on low-end PCs, Alameen adopted a creative approach, using a mix of 2D and 360-degree images. Even the cutscenes were meticulously crafted frame by frame, ensuring a high-quality 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. You can add this intriguing point-and-click puzzle adventure to your Steam Wishlist now, though mobile pre-registration is not yet available.
