Serenity Forge has just released two captivating additions to the Android gaming scene this week: Lisa: The Painful and Lisa: The Joyful, both part of The Lisa Trilogy. If you've experienced these titles on PC, you're well aware of the intense emotional journey they offer. For newcomers, prepare for a rollercoaster of feelings.
It’s Painful and Joyful at the Same Time
If you're new to the series or haven't yet explored these games, let's dive into what they're all about. The saga began with Lisa: The First in 2012, a retro-style exploration game that plunges you into the psyche of Lisa Armstrong. You navigate a distorted, fading reality shaped by trauma, piecing together fragmented memories, encountering bizarre characters, and uncovering VHS tapes that hold clues to the past. It's a surreal experience that subtly plays with your mind.
The sequels, Lisa: The Painful and Lisa: The Joyful, were released on PC in 2014 and 2015, respectively. Now, these games from The Lisa Trilogy are available on Android in their Definitive Editions, following the updated PC versions from July 2023. Get a sneak peek of what awaits you:
You Can Play The Lisa Trilogy on Android
In Lisa: The Painful, you step into the shoes of Brad Armstrong, navigating the desolate wasteland of Olathe in search of his adopted daughter, Buddy. The game is a mix of brutality, misery, and dark humor. Your choices have lasting impacts, potentially leading to losing limbs, sacrificing party members, and taking hits for others.
Lisa: The Joyful, the concluding chapter, lets you play as Buddy. Set in an even darker version of Olathe following the catastrophic White Flash, which left the world devoid of women except for her, Buddy struggles to survive and seek vengeance while concealing her identity. You'll face a more sinister world and make tough choices that significantly alter your gameplay experience.
The Definitive Editions come packed with enhancements, including updated battle systems, six new Warlord skills, new border art, a music player, and a painless mode for those who want to enjoy the story without the usual hardships.
If you're ready to embark on a game that's grim, wild, yet beautifully crafted, dive into Lisa: The Painful and Lisa: The Joyful of The Lisa Trilogy on Android.
