Batman: Everybody Lies is a story-driven, cooperative
deduction game based on the system of award-winning
Detective game series. It deliveres deeply thematic
experience that challenge 2-4 players to team up with
the caped crusader and bring the theatrics and themes
of Batman to life. Players need to gather evidence and
connect the facts to unravel the mystery. Every scenario
ends with a final report with questions verifying how well
the team has investigated the case.
Fully anchored in rich comics lore, Batman: Everybody
Lies challenges players to take on the roles of four key
investigators – instinctive journalist Warren Spacey,
tenacious reporter Vicki Vale, brutish detective Harvey
Bullock, or the cunning Catwoman – who are drawn into
a series of mysterious events unfolding in Gotham City
for their own respective agendas, ultimately becoming
unlikely allies entrusted to help thwart villains new and
old as only Gotham’s greatest detective can!
Yet even when these unlikely allies combine forces, their
goals are not always aligned. So to capture the complexity
of the comics, Portal has added a new hidden agenda
mechanic to the Detective system, which assigns secret
goals and unique win conditions for each player based
upon which DC character they portray.
Beginning with an introductory Prologue designed to
get players acquainted with the game rules, Batman:
Everybody Lies then continues with three big cases to
solve, each taking roughly 2-3 hours to play. Each case
can be played separately as stand-alone episodes, yet
should players crack all four cases, they will unravel a
master narrative with an epic climax.
