About the Batman Everyone Lies

Batman: Everybody Lies is a story-driven, cooperative deduction game based on the system of
award-winning Detective game series. It delivers 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, brut-
ish 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.
