Abstract
Lies and Seductions is a computer game in which a player controls Abby, a character on a wager to seduce a rock star who has promised to stay a virgin until marriage. The game is loosely based on the story of Les Liaisons dangereuses (Dangerous Liaisons). The game is a design experiment exploring how to use social relations, seduction, and tragedy as meaningful gameplay content.
