Fear the old blood, Geppetto.
Everyone remembers the classic tale of Pinocchio, right? A wooden boy who comes to life, his nose growing whenever he lies, learning to become a real boy by cleaving monsters into bloody giblets with a whopping great axe.
Hold on, that last part doesn't sound quite right.
Popping up with a new Steam page this week, Lies of P adapts the Carlo Collodi children's tale into a grim Bloodborne-alike hack 'n' slasher. The trailer has all the hallmarks of a From Software joint, too. Choral wailing, grand overwrought architecture, corpse-strewn fields and mangled monsters. Even Geppetto's get-up could've easily been pulled from Bloodborne's wardrobe.
Playing as the wooden lad himself, you'll be carving your way through the ruined city of Krat to find your maker. In what sounds like a fascinatingly weird twist, Lies of P stays faithful to the source material with quests that allow you to "lie" through them. The more deceitful you are, the more human you become, with its own set of associated pros and cons.
