About Liv
Liv is a narrative-driven adventure game developed by Parelion Studios, set for release on December 31, 2026. It tasks players with figuring out a personal mystery as they’re thrust into a scenario where they’re accused of a young woman’s disappearance. Using tools like the victim’s diary, video logs, and police databases, players analyze evidence, solve puzzles, and piece together clues to uncover the truth. The game runs exclusively on PC and focuses on single-player exploration, blending detective work with deductive reasoning. It’s a story about guilt, memory, and the weight of truth, designed for those who enjoy figuring out mysteries through document analysis and environmental puzzles.
Gameplay
In Liv, you’ll spend most sessions sifting through digital files, scanning handwritten notes, and watching fragmented video logs. The interface lets you cross-reference evidence, like matching diary entries to timestamps in videos or flagging contradictions in police reports. Puzzles often require logical leaps, such as reconstructing a timeline or decoding encrypted messages. The controls are keyboard/mouse focused, with drag-and-drop mechanics for organizing evidence. Progress hinges on attention to detail: missing a cryptic journal entry or overlooking a background detail in a video could mislead your investigation. The game lacks combat or action sequences; instead, tension builds through narrative ambiguity and the pressure of an unresolved accusation.
What Players Think
As of now, no community data is available due to the game’s upcoming release. However, based on pre-launch hype and developer interviews, early expectations focus on the game’s investigative depth and narrative structure. Once released, PlayPile will track metrics like average playtime, completion rates, and player moods to provide detailed insights.
PlayPile's Take
Liv appears ideal for players who enjoy cerebral mysteries and prefer story-driven gameplay over action. While the lack of current data makes a full assessment tricky, the premise offers a compelling blend of document-based sleuthing and ethical dilemmas. If priced reasonably, it could be a strong pick for fans of games like Her Story or The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. Worth watching in late 2026.
