Solve mysteries in Gotham City in this cooperative deduction game. Play as investigators like Warren Spacey, Vicki Vale, Harvey Bullock, or Catwoman to unravel intricate cases. Board game for 2-4 players, ~120 minutes, ages 14+.
Batman: Everybody Lies is a crime-solving deduction game for 2-4 players set in rich lore of the Batman comics universe. Players 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.
Throughout the game, players cooperatively make decisions running the investigation and trying to solve a series of challenging cases. They visit famous locations in Gotham City (like the Batcave, Arkham Asylum, Blackgate Penitentiary, and the Gotham City Gazette) and cross paths with well-known Batman characters (like Batman, The Penguin, Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, Scarecrow, and more) while trying to chase leads, identify suspects, and gather enough information to help save Gotham City. The game also adds a brand new hidden agenda mechanic, which assigns secret goals and unique win conditions for each player based upon which DC character they portray.
In Batman: Everybody Lies, players utilize a variety of physical and digital game components – a deck of cards with essential clues and plot twists, various physical handouts, and a dedicated website with access to in-world resources from the Gotham City Gazette archives – for a truly immersive experience. The game also features another new thematic treat – Scenes – that bring memorable gameplay moments to life via original comic book illustrations that feel torn straight from the pages and panels of the beloved comics.
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. Every scenario ends with a final report with questions verifying how well the team has investigated the case.

This edition of Detective is a total immersion in the Batman universe, with very real dialogues, mixed with script twists that can only happen in Gotham City. The game is accompanied by individual missions for each character, which help to unravel a little more of the group's history, but always with an individual objective that each player must secretly try to achieve at the end of the game. Plus, the immersion goes up a notch with the "comic" style scene cards where you're immersed in the case even more. If you are a fan of Batman and you like mysteries, this is your game. If not, but you like the Detective brand, it's for you too. Without a doubt, it is a game made with love and passion.

Not as good as the original Detective, but hopefully the theme sucks players in to try the original.
Very nice continuation of the Detective series, theme is well nested in the story, it is clear it was designed with DC universe in mind, one complaint is there is too little to make this a real coop, more like singe player game that you can discuss with friends while making decisions
