Lies of P dev addresses "game-breaking bug" that halts progression

Lies of P has only just released, and it's already one of the most unique RPG game launches this year. Neowiz Games has crafted a Bloodborne-esque soulslike that places us in the shoes of Pinnochio himself, a character most remember from childhood stories. Instead of a fairytale world, you'll traverse a wickedly dark setting where Pinnochio must battle his way through mechanical monstrosities. Unfortunately, you may not make it far as the Lies of P developer just revealed a game-breaking bug in Chapter 2.

Payday 3 and 2022's biggest disappointment are the next Xbox Game Pass headliners this September

We're coming towards the end of September, so Xbox has revealed the next batch of games that will be coming to Game Pass throughout the rest of the month.

Obviously the biggest game to be joining Game Pass in September is Starfield, no one's arguing against that (though it's not necessarily the best sci-fi game to join the service this month). But there are some other worthwhile titles joining the service soon, and Xbox has announced the next batch over on the Xbox Wire blog.

First up is the Bloodborne-inspired Lies of P, a Soulslike all about Pinocchio of all characters that's available from today on cloud, console and PC. While Sherif wasn't too enthused by it in his review, if you already have Game Pass you can make your own mind up about it at the very least. Plus, it does have one small quality of life update that all Soulslikes should include.

Lies Of P review: the closest we'll get to Bloodborne on PC, probably


At first glance, Lies Of P looks like a wannabe Bloodborne reskin, replacing the Gothic edges of Yarnham with a twisted version of a kid's fairytale. There are silhouettes in windows sheltering from an infection that's plagued the populace and puppets who've gone awol. Take damage and you've got a chance to recoup the costs by smacking the baddie back. There's a bit where you platform down a large well, thin planks of wood marking your descent. Survive and you might want to visit your doll-like maiden and spend your souls.


But is Lies Of P just another boring pretender to Bloodborne? No! I think it's worked with its Gothic Pinocchio theme remarkably well, and the option to snap and configure your puppet lad to your liking makes its journey feel distinct. Sure, Lies Of P might lack some of the presence of its main inspiration, and not all of its parts come together to form a cohesive whole, but the game is an undeniable must for Soulslikers who crave the dark. It's perhaps the closest any Soulslike has felt to a FromSoft game, in everything from its presentation to the cadence of your character's jog.
