Tell Me Why is the new episodic adventure game from Dontnod, the same developers that created Life Is Strange. The first episode is available now, and promises an emotional journey — like their other adventure games, there’s a focus on exploration and choices. But, there are a few puzzles you can solve along the way.
In Episode 1, there are three specific puzzles to solve. There are puzzle doors locked with symbols, police station files to access, and a confrontation you’ll want to be prepared for. As a pair of twins working together to solve a terrible crime, you’ll want to get all the evidence you can for the best possible ending.
