Liar's Path
About Liar's Path
Liar's Path is a platform puzzle game built entirely around deception. The goal is simple — reach the door — but the floor crumbles, spikes appear without warning, and signs point the wrong way. Presiding over all of it is the Author, a little ink devil with a quill, who records your every mistake in his Ledger. The game tracks your habits — jump late, trust a sign — and actively turns those patterns against you as the levels progress. Ninety-three hand-inked levels are spread across nine chapters, with three boss pages: a giant eraser, a sea of ink, and the Author himself.
Beyond survival, each level hides a golden page to find, and ten secret honest doors are scattered across the game. Forty-nine hats and colours can be earned along the way. A two-player race mode lets two people compete on one keyboard or one tablet.
How to Play Liar's Path
Every level has one objective: get to the door at the end. Nothing on the path is reliable — floors crumble underfoot, spikes pop up unexpectedly, and signs deliberately point the wrong way. The Ledger logs your tendencies, and each chapter reshapes its tricks to exploit whatever habits you've developed.
In the two-player race, both players navigate simultaneously on the same device, competing to reach the door first.

Games You Might Like
Liar's Path sits squarely in the world of puzzle games, where logic and lateral thinking drive every decision. If the arrow-based misdirection in Liar's Path appeals to you, Arrow Puzzle offers a satisfying grid-clearing challenge built around careful sequencing and open paths. For pure directional logic under pressure, Arrows tasks you with launching arrows off a field without collisions, demanding the same kind of deliberate planning. The hidden-object exploration in Secret Hall: Hidden Objects shares Liar's Path's taste for secrets tucked inside every level.
Fans of punishing, rhythm-driven platformers will find plenty to chase in the Geometry Dash series, while the bouncing obstacle courses of Bounce Games keep the one-more-try energy alive. The gruelling climbs of Get Over It Games match Liar's Path's appetite for repeated failure and hard-won progress, and the rolling platforming of Red Ball Games offers a lighter take on the same genre. The broader platform games category is the natural home for anyone who wants more after finishing all nine chapters.
