Our take on Who's Lila?
The central interaction is not simply choosing a response: players must shape a face and rely on emotion recognition to continue dialogue. That makes expression input a defining part of the mystery, rather than a decorative addition to a conventional point-and-click story.
What is Who's Lila??
Who's Lila?
is a point-and-click adventure about William, whose connection to the disappearance of Tanya Kennedy puts him under scrutiny. Rather than select written dialogue, players manipulate parts of William’s face to express emotions. A neural network analyzes those expressions and uses them to move the story forward. The game frames this as a reverse-detective mystery, with choices that shape how William responds and which events follow. Its settings include dreamlike landscapes, industrial interiors and surreal architecture, presented in a ditherpunk visual style. The vendor lists 15 endings, Steam achievements, unlockable palettes, more than 50 soundtrack pieces and over 6 hours of gameplay.
