About
Lisa is a quirky side-scrolling RPG set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Beneath the charming and funny exterior is a world full of disgust and moral destruction. Players will learn what kind of person they are by being FORCED to make choices. These choices permanently effect the game play. If you want to save a party member from death, you will have to sacrifice the strength of your character. Whether it's taking a beating for them, or chopping off limbs, or some other inhuman way. You will learn that in this world being selfish and heartless is the only way to survive.

Critic reviews
- 6.7This game doesn't seem to want the player to like it. The story, devoid of hope or identifiable characters, matches its nihilistic narrative with gameplay that is deeply unfriendly to both the player and characters. While these design choices are made with purpose, the themes the game drives at and the vehicles it uses to get there are at times in poor taste, other times offensive, and never pleasant. The singularity and uniqueness of the experience is to be commended, and some will no doubt buy what this game is selling. I am not one of those people.
- 9.0Lisa is a game that deserves to be known and deserves to be played. Even with all of its challenging content, it's worth it. To quote one of Lisa's many NPCs: "Olathe... It's perfect."
- 5.0LISA seeks to strike a deep, somber tone from the start, but the heavy mood it initially establishes is quickly broken with haphazard and inorganic use of comedy and quirk.
