Deal | "Gorgeous, Bloody, Unforgiving" - Souls-like action game with 53K+ "Very Positive" reviews gets flat 50% off on Steam for the first time ever
Lies of P is a gothic soulslike that reimagines the tale of Pinocchio, and in a brand-new deal, it is now available for just $29.99 on Steam. The deal marks the game’s lowest-ever price (as per SteamDB) and is part of a weekend promotion that runs until June 12, 2025.
Released in September 2023, Lies of P has managed to stand out in a crowded genre thanks to its grim Belle Époque aesthetic, narrative choices around truth and deception, and tightly tuned combat. Players take on the role of a puppet created by Geppetto, navigating a city overrun by corrupted machines and bloodthirsty elites.Over time, it has built a reputation not just for its difficulty, but for its worldbuilding and atmosphere. The game was also nominated for Best RPG at The Game Awards and won an Apple Design Award for Visuals & Graphics.
What’s making headlines recently, though, is a major update that finally added a long-requested feature: the ability to lower difficulty mid-game while still unlocking achievements. The move has gotten a lot of praise from players who previously dropped Lies of P due to its steep challenge curve, especially those balancing limited time and responsibilities.
The game currently holds a "Very Positive" rating on Steam based on over 93,000 reviews. Some of the most upvoted feedback praises the recent patch as a "game changer," allowing more players to finish the campaign without stress (and of course, letting players enjoy new content).
From a technical standpoint, Lies of P is also relatively light on system requirements. The minimum spec includes a Ryzen 3 1200 or Core i3-6300, 8GB of RAM, and a GTX 960 or RX 560. Storage demand sits at 50 GB.
With the price cut bringing it to its all-time low and new quality-of-life features in place, now may be the best time yet to explore Lies of P - especially if you skipped it last year due to the difficulty curve.
