Truth Or Lies

TRUTH OR LIES

There is no shortage of shoot-‘em-up, racing or football games.  That’s why it’s so cool when gaming developers go beyond the obvious, and also incorporate peripheral accessories that can tend to gather dust. 

Here the X Box microphones used for singing games like Lips get utilised in an innovative home polygraph scenario!  While some boy- & girlfriends of less truthful persuasions may sweat a bit around the collar at the thought of being exposed, it is geared for fun, and won’t exactly nail you. 

At the beginning you need to calibrate your voice with actual truthful responses and lies – but things are not always detected accurately... While the game tries to keep things light and entertaining, some may lose interest quickly, especially if the system is not spot-on with response detection, or questions don’t get meaty enough.  For the latter however, a mode allows for your own questions – but with the not-quite-accurate system, you’re never really sure. 

So, if the singing game songs have been repeated to death, maybe this could amuse up to 8 people at a party for a while – but don’t expect too many shocking revelations.
