GAMEPLAY
In the pursuit of terrorist organization The Liberation Front, you have to coordinate your team to gather information, manage your limited budget and deal with the press hot on your heels for a good story. But that is only half of it:
Your main task as lead investigator is interrogating suspects. Understanding their backgrounds, and thus their motivations, is key in choosing whether intimidation, guile or empathy is the right approach. There is no universal solution – but the clock is ticking relentlessly. 
As you’re closing in on the true culprits and your suspects are getting more resistant, the interrogations become increasingly difficult. Uncover the truth through complex conversations, psychological manipulation and other techniques. 

The Liberation Front will not be easily dismantled.

THE GAME'S GOAL
Interrogation: Deceived is a narratively immersive convo-puzzle game that challenges common preconceptions about highly relevant contemporary subjects like terrorism, police brutality and the power imbalances between citizens, the state and large corporations. The game follows in the footsteps of games like "This War of Mine", "Papers Please", "This is the Police" and "Orwell" in that it tries to raise important moral, ideological and practical questions in the minds of the players.

## Key features

### 5/5 — Great game suspect questioning

*2024-12-22*

Been playing for years the free trial finally bought the game and I have to say it’s completely worth it would highly recommend to those interested in or studying Interrogation training

### 5/5 — Outstanding. Sophisticated. Smart.

*2020-11-15*

This is the best, most psychologically sound and consistent conversation-driven game I’ve ever played. The art work is great, but the sophistication of the plot, relationship management, and conflicting character worldviews and agendas was highly compelling. Like a good mystery, the author was always a few steps ahead of me. It can be difficult in spots, especially in later, more difficult levels where the orders of topics of conversation can make all the difference, but if at first you don’t succeed... you’ll be rewarded for trying again. I want to play it again sometime to try different interrogation techniques.

### 5/5 — Love This!!

*2020-10-26*

I don’t write reviews, I play adventure/role play games a ton. And this is by far the best game I’ve played this year. Long gameplay, different difficulties, you feel like an actual detective. I wish there were other scenarios to play this is my only complaint!!!

### 5/5 — Immersif et passionnant

*2020-08-19*

Excellent jeu, attention uniquement en anglais (mais sans argot).
Je suis tout de même mal à l’aise avec la possibilité d’user de techniques de torture, même si on peut choisir sa propre voie.

### 5/5 — Mind blowing game

*2020-04-12*

I never write reviews on App Store but honestly this is the greatest game I’ve come across—not to mention I’ve always had the wanting for a great puzzle solving/criminal mind game. Mind that this game requires a lot of careful readings and logical deduction, exactly my cup of tea! Truly amazing production and I am hoping that there is a 2nd one coming up! Can’t wait

### 3/5 — Doesn’t make much sense

*2020-04-04*

It’s ok. Not much to it really. Click a statement or question and the suspect will either become more or less helpful. It all feels pretty flimsy though. There is a right and wrong choice but no way to really anticipate it.

### 5/5 — Sehr spannend!

*2020-03-23*

Gut geschriebene Dialoge und die Verhöre sind ziemlich knifflig.

### 5/5 — A very polished and engaging game

*2020-03-21*

An intriguing mix of visual novel, strategy and detective genres. Some nuances to the gameplay and different strategies allow for replayability and there is surprising amount of interesting information and dialogue to read. Occasionally it can be hard to find your way around the conversations but the hint system helps with that. Definitely worth the price from what I’ve played so far.
