Tell Me Why is a gripping, true-to-life narrative adventure. After ten years apart, twins Tyler and Alyson reunite to sell their childhood home. They soon realize their past is not what they remember.

Set in small-town Alaska, Tell Me Why places you at the heart of a mystery in an intimate, true-to-life story where twins Tyler and Alyson Ronan use their extraordinary bond to unravel memories of a loving but troubled childhood. Tyler and Alyson are both playable characters and equal heroes in the story.

In Tell Me Why, memories are not only a key part of Tyler and Alyson’s journey – they’re also a major gameplay mechanic. Players will use the twins’ supernatural Bond as one of many ways to find out the truth of the events surrounding their mother’s death. The choices the player makes with the Bond will influence Tyler and Alyson’s relationship for better or for worse, as well as alter the course of the game through branching dialogue and dramatic actions.

Tell Me Why is a true-to-life experience with strong characters and gripping themes.

It's easier than ever to dive into the story of the Ronan twins' homecoming.

That's right: Chapter 1 of Tell Me Why is now free across all platforms!

Now you can experience the first part of this award-winning, best-in-class narrative adventure from DONTNOD Entertainment and Xbox Game Studios at no cost - and if you enjoy the first chapter, the rest of the game is now more affordable than ever.

With Chapter 1 of Tell Me Why now available for free, we encourage new players to visit the FAQ on our website. This page provides details(occasionally with spoilers!) around depictions of transphobia, misgendering and other topics in the game.

Thanks to all who have accompanied the twins on their journey. We hope to see you in Delos Crossing soon!

DONTNOD are passionate about the opportunities for community-building and audience engagement that come with episodic storytelling, but they are also dedicated to innovation and improvement. DONTNOD has worked closely alongside Microsoft and the LGBTQ media advocacy organization GLAAD in shaping Tyler as an authentic representation of the trans experience, as well as a genuine, multidimensional character. Tyler is also the first playable videogame hero from a major studio and publisher who is also transgender.

Tell Me Why is available on Xbox One and PC.
