Lies of P
Developer: Round 8 Studio | Platforms: PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S | Subgenre: Action-RPG | Perspective: Third-Person |
What makes the game special? Lies of P represents the alternative to Bloodborne. As the title suggests, you take on the role of a puppet named “P,” created by the famous inventor “Gepetto.”
As P, you find yourself in the city of Krat, inhabited by humans and puppets. The latter are built to serve humans, but they are now going berserk and slaughtering the city’s inhabitants.

As Pinocchio, you don’t fight with a long nose but with brutal weapons, various abilities, and a handy robot arm against grotesque bosses. The combat style is equally agile, just like in Bloodborne.
A major advantage that Lies of P can boast is its storytelling, which is much more direct and easier to follow than some of the most well-known games from FromSoftware.
