Plan your next Contradiction: Spot The Liar session
Our independent guide breaks down the investigative flow of Contradiction, offering observations that help players sharpen their deduction skills without promising hidden bonuses.

01 / THE GUIDE
Note‑Taking Strategy
Create a simple two‑column table: one for character names, another for their statements. This visual aid makes it easier to spot contradictions when you later compare entries.
- Take notes on each character’s statements to compare later.
- Re‑watch earlier video clips if a contradiction isn’t obvious at first.

Evidence Mapping
Draw a quick sketch of each location you visit, marking where evidence was found. Revisiting the map after new interviews can reveal missed connections.
- Explore every accessible doorway; evidence can turn up as you explore beyond the main path.
- Observe changes in the scene after each interview to spot new opportunities.
