The game is a four-player online party game in which one hidden traitor, the Liar, tries to fail cooperative mini-games. An open beta runs September 18 to 20, each day from 20:00 to 24:00 Japan time. The Steam release is planned for September.","whyItMatters":"The design turns the usual werewolf deduction loop on its head: the traitor is not trying to win the mini-games but to fail them quietly, so the table reads intent rather than loyalty.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe Liar plays the same mini-games as everyone else and has to fail them. Because obvious sabotage would give the role away, the game turns on whether a mistake looks genuine or deliberate. A quota requires a set number of failures per match, so the Liar also has to pick when to slip. Five mini-games are drawn at random from a larger pool for each match, which changes how suspicion moves between players. Bomb defusal, a role-split drive, a ball maze, block stacking, safe cracking, a memory game and air hockey are among the types. After five games, a vote names the Liar. Random Match and Private Match are both available on PC via Steam.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Your Liar's beta window is four hours a night, 20:00 to 24:00 Japan time, so MAgaming is testing one region's evening habits rather than a global matchmaking pool.","twitterPost":"Your Liar's open beta runs four hours a night in Japan time, so MAgaming tests one region's evening habits, not a global pool.","threadsPost":"MAgaming's open beta for Your Liar runs only four hours a night, 20:00 to 24:00 Japan time.
