The Lie is an entry in the Puddle Books series. It teaches children ages three to eight the importance of telling the truth. In the main screen, the player can select a storyteller, and navigate through the pages. On each page of the story, the selected storyteller reads the page out loud. Clicking on the picture on the right of the page leads the child to an activity. In some pages, a song will play with animation accompanying it before leading to the activity. The game features reading comprehension and vocabulary.
