It’s just about going around and seeing things. Occasionally beset by block puzzles, trade sequence quests, and traversing areas filled with disgusting Marty spiders the game is mostly about exploration. Lisa is an adventure game where Lisa explores a bizarre and hellish mindscape to find items that she can use to further progress in different areas. Each game like a ripple in a pond, growing further and further from the locus of Lisa’s pain.
Those answers are more easily derived from this game, Lisa: The First. But no true answers to what happened to her or who she is. That Brad is stricken with sorrow when he thinks about her. That she’s related to Buzzo, Brad’s rival, in some way. The Painful only offered cryptic answers but I wanted to know ‘Who is Lisa?’ I knew that she was related to Brad, The Painful’s main character, in some way. The whole time I played Lisa: The Painful I was haunted by Lisa but had no idea who she was. It’s competition was Dishonored (PC, XBox 360, and PS3), Hotline Miami (PC), and He-Man: The Most Powerful Game in the Universe (iOS). Lisa: The First was released on October 9th, 2012. Except this one is about social isolation via parental abuse instead of a sort of self-imposed exile.

The game is very much like Yume Nikki (Dream Diary) made in RPG Maker 2003 by developer Kikiyama, a series based on the dreams of a social recluse.
It was made in RPG Maker 2003 which is strange considering it’s an adventure game. At the time the company was called Dingaling Productions but is now LOVEBRADgames.
Lisa was created by Austin Jorgensen, known as Dingaling at the time of release. Join her as she wanders and explores her mindspace. Maybe there’s no fixing what’s been smashed and ripped apart. Maybe she can fight back against the encroaching darkness moving in on her psyche. Maybe she can put something back together. Although there’s no overt depiction of such abuse the overall experience and hints can be incredibly distressing.Īn abused young girl walks out of her broken home and into the realm of her broken mind. Trigger warning: the main theme of Lisa: The First and child abuse.
