Another adaptation, Guillermo del Toro’s long-imagined take on Pinocchio, is being developed for Netflix as a stop-motion animated film. Pinocchio has been plumbed for horror before with the 1996 slasher film Pinocchio’s Revenge (and later unintentionally with Roberto Benigni’s 2002 comedy Pinocchio and Disney’s 2000 TV musical Geppetto). However, beyond that we don’t know all the much about the game and this is just the first look at the new project. The developers told IGN that the game will incorporate a lie system where what you do and say will impact gameplay - which is a connection to the story of Pinocchio, where the main character’s nose grows each time he tells a lie. The teaser ends with Geppetto putting the final touches on a fancy young lad who has a mechanical hand. Shrieks ring through the church and we see a white mechanized monster with blue eyes laying destroyed on the floor. He drags a large trunk into what appears to be a church that happens to resemble the Parisian cathedral Notre Dame. The released footage - a cinematic trailer - shows a decrepit, snow-covered European city that is desolate except for one walking figure: an old man with a snow-white beard and a monocle who must be Geppetto. It’s a far cry from the cheery tale many people know from the animated Disney film. The first part of the trailer shows a rat squirming out of what appears to be a dead man’s mouth. Lies of P looks like a horrifying take on the toy-becomes-boy classic. Developed by Round 8 Studios ( Bless Unleashed) and published by Neowiz, the game is slated to come to Google Stadia, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X in 2023. Lies of P is a new “Souls-like” action RPG that blends the classic children’s story Pinocchio with the plague-filled horrors of Bloodborne. Since its creation in 2001, Wikipedia has grown as the online phenomenon that apparently allows the truth to be managed democratically but over the past year it has also been exposed as a real-life 'Ministry of Truth'.
