About the Game
Contradiction is a unique adventure / murder mystery game that uses live-action video for the entirety of the game play. All you have to do is interview characters, spot their lies and catch them out! Contradiction is a brand new take on the concept of an interactive movie and brings the genre to a whole new level of playability. It plays as smoothly as a 3D graphic game. You can wander freely around the game environment, collecting evidence and witnessing constantly changing events. But the game is all about interviewing the characters you meet, questioning them about all the evidence you’ve collected and things you’ve seen, then spotting contradictions in their answers. Pair two contradictions together and watch them try to worm out of it! Works best plugged into a TV preferably with a bunch of people to help spot the lies - but can be played alone on your laptop or PC just fine! The legacy version of the game with French subtitles by Pierre-Laurent Batut is also available for download on a Beta branch, again instructions are pinned to the top of the discussions forum.Поддерживаемые языки: english

As others have said, this is a total cringe-fest after 2-3 hours. Terrible dialogue. Very tedious and linear with arbitrary progress gates.
I've played it before and I loved it. I like the atmosphere: the wind and leaves and slight rustic rustling of the little village, the nice smooth transitions between screens, the way it all ties together to realize the setting and get the person playing into the shoes of the detective. Something about the acting overall came across a bit amateurish but really endearing and with character. Catching the various folks in a lie is very satisfying, especially since doing so directly sparks the direction of the plot in a natural way; it's very rewarding and makes you pay more closer attention. I can happily recommend.
Was the game horrible, noooo.. technically not horrible, but there are aspects of it that I find problematic, and if there's ever a future in this type of genre of games, I hope they'll take this these opinions into consideration. My main issue the things that would clearly be a contradiction you can't use to point out, furuther more, if you're getting statements from several people, you should be able to compare the statements to get the truth, if you have several people stating a time someone was seen somehwere, and ONE person stating a different place that person was scene at the same time, why can't you point that out? further more... and I don't know how to do this without it being a spoiler, but it's not something you can do anything with because the game doesn't recognize it being a contradiction... someone had died previously, and it was set a time period before atlas, but it was also mentioned that something that is suppose to have been done at the same date of this death, was also happens to be done during atlas days, (spoiler part here, the whole reason why atlas is a new name) but you can't point that out anywhere, the time line is all sorts of messed up because of these statements. It would be nice to have a notepad to write your own notes in and make your own timeline to follow, and compare contradictions to THOSE notes instead of just one person's own words. MAYBE this would be easier to follow if that was the system you could use? It took me about over 3 hrs to complete this game, DON'T know if I'd ever try a sequel if one were to be made unless these glaring issues were thought about.
👌
I love this game and have replayed it a few times now. Wish they'd make a sequel!
This was a very fun and un-serious mystery and I loved every minute of it, granted there were times where I got a bit lost and frustrated but overall this was a very enjoyable FMV with a very interesting mystery at it's centre. Also for being 9 years old I feel like its aged very well.
RIP Paul Darrow <3
Game was brilliant from start to finish. I enjoyed the acting, the plot and the twists. Wish there were more like this.
Small budget indie FMV. It was a nice game to play when I didn't want' something too involved.
This game is amazing Rupert Booth as Jenks and his interactions are just the best!
really nice FMV game played with my wife and we both were hooked. Needs a sequel!
Unreal. Spent all night on this with my friends. Great acting 10/10
Very well made. In my opinion one of the best FMVs I've played so far.
Great game, greater acting. Best enjoyed with friends.
Overall an excellent game, especially if you're into FMV games. The writing was pretty solid, the plot was interesting, the acting, filming and sounds were very well done. The gameplay can get a bit repetitive as you have to go back and forth between locations many, many times as you uncover more information, and sometimes it's very not obvious what to do when you get stuck. I would suggest utilizing the hint system frequently in those cases, and if you're still stuck you can always go to the web. I also wish it were a bit longer as it left quite a lot of plot elements unexplored. But definitely give it a go.
Played for about an hour and enjoying the game. I'm engrossed, having a lovely time when it crashes. I reboot and and have to start the entire thing over. Now I have to watch an hour's worth of unskippable videos just to get back to where I left off.
This could be prevented by any one of the following.
1. An autosave feature
2. Allowing the player to skip videos
3. Properly debugging the game so it doesn't crash abruptly
I do not think there will a followup game.
if you are missing some good old FMV fun, this will scratch the itch. The controls are simple, but the sheer amount of statements given by the later parts means that you'll have an easier time if you actively pay attention. There are lots of loose threads so I hope they repeat this in some form, even if they decide not to follow the story started here.
The acting was great (especially if you like cheesy performances), the peaking mics during yelling made it 10x better.
I didn't know the UK got so wacky. I love Inspector Jenks!
