The Throne of Lies official trailer is finally here, explaining not only our game, but the "social deduction" genre itself! If you're wondering how to play, we tell you the exact situations you will run into. Our genre is quite unique, so instead of explaining it, we show it to you in the trailer! Still confused? Let's break it down:

1) Queue up automatically into a 15-player match, optionally with friends, where 1 of 3 factions are assigned and 1 of 22+ base classes are assigned. Everyone is anonymous. Bad guys are outnumbered, but know who each other are.

2) Your objective is to kill the opposing factions. The good guys need to find out who the bad guys are and accuse them of treason to be executed. The bad guys need to socially manipulate the others into thinking they're good.

3) There are 2 phases - day and night. Night is when the good guys will use abilities to defend (they can't chat at night) who they believe to be allies - and bad guys will conspire together (they can chat) and decide who to kill/convert that night. Someone will usually end up dead in the morning.

4) During the day, you'll discover who died and the clues left behind - a journal (typed) left by the victim and a deathnote (drawn) left by the player (as a taunt). You can also use "day abilities" to socially manipulate others into revealing certain things or to interrupt them. At this time, you will call out others for treason. If found guilty, they will be executed by the accuser.

The game ends when only your faction is alive by the morning. This video trailer demonstrates the 4 essentials to our "social deduction" game: Day phase, Night phase, Trial+Treason phase,
