BrokenLore: DON’T LIE is a Japanese game in the first-person psychological horror genre built around trauma, isolation, and reality.

A Slow Descent Into Fear
It becomes harder to trust with every step. The story follows Junko, a hikikomori whose carefully contained life starts falling apart when painful parts of her past return.
Junko grew up with a father who was physically around but emotionally distant. Attempts to reach out to others brought rejection and humiliation, so withdrawing from the world became her way of coping in BrokenLore: DON’T LIE. Over time, her apartment became a place where she could control what happened around her and avoid everything outside.
That sense of safety doesn’t last.
As memories begin bleeding into reality, ordinary locations take on disturbing new forms. Familiar surroundings turn into twisted versions of Junko’s past at BrokenLore: DON’T LIE, forcing her to piece together what happened through exploration, strange encounters, and clues hidden throughout her environment. The further the story goes, the harder it becomes to separate what is real from what Junko remembers, fears, or believes.
Explore Junko’s Distorted World
Most of the investigation takes place around Junko’s apartment and the strange spaces connected to it. Messages, files, environmental details, and other small clues help reveal pieces of the story, so paying attention matters in BrokenLore: DON’T LIE.
The horror also relies heavily on tension rather than constant action. Something unseen begins watching Junko’s behaviour, making every movement feel risky. Staying out of sight and choosing when to move becomes part of surviving the experience.
Reality itself keeps shifting as well. Familiar environments can give way to warped, liminal spaces shaped by Junko’s memories and fears. These changes gradually expose the emotional weight behind her story.
A Story Built Around What Junko Can’t Escape
The strongest part of DON’T LIE comes from watching Junko’s controlled world slowly lose its structure. What begins as a confined exploration of her surroundings gradually turns into a much more personal confrontation with the people, experiences, and emotions she has spent years avoiding.
As the line between memory and reality continues to break down, Junko has to face what she has buried before that fractured reality consumes her completely.
