DONTNOD Entertainment’s Tell Me Why follows twins Tyler and Alyson Ronan as they reunite in small-town Alaska and investigate their troubled childhood. Their supernatural bond lets them revisit memories that do not always agree, placing personal history at the center of an intimate mystery. The setting and realistic characters give the story a grounded feel, while its mature themes distinguish it from a purely fantastical adventure.
Players explore the twins’ conflicting recollections, make choices that shape their relationship and future, and solve puzzles tied to the story. Those puzzles also open a window into The Book of Goblins, the fantasy world associated with their childhood. The design brings together investigation, narrative decisions, and puzzle-solving, with the siblings’ changing bond linking these parts of the experience.
Tell Me Why is listed as a single-player game, so its play format centers on one person following the twins’ story rather than shared or competitive sessions. Its account of childhood memories, family ties, and the twins’ future gives each decision a personal stake.
