1. Cruel truth, not entertainment
Lisa: The Painful -This is an indie-RPG that refuses to be pleasant. She does not offer comfort, does not give the usual history of heroism. Instead - loss, wine distorted by humanity. This is a game that is not afraid to be ugly and honest at the same time.

2. The story of the person who wanted to save
The main character is Brad Armstrong.  A man with a broken past. He finds a girl in a world where women no longer exist, and grows her secretly from everyone. When she is abducted, Brad goes in search. But his path is not salvation, but slow destruction.

3. The world without hope
The world of the game is a desert. Not only physically, but also morally. Everything here is empty: people go crazy, violence has become the norm, the oddity is the only form of survival. This madness does not scream, it rot. And in this decay - the gloomy power of the world Lisa .

4. Ugliness as an expressive tool
The graphics are intentionally simple, but expressive. Dirty shades, gloomy locations, scorched lands - everything emphasizes the general feeling of hopelessness. The design of the characters is strange, ugly, but memorable. The style is hidden in this disgrace.

5. Fights - distortion of the genre
Game mechanics is built on step -by -step battles. There is a combo system that resembles fighting fighting mechanics: the input of key combinations for special blows. Each sopartiye is unique, but to assemble and hold the team is a test in itself.

6. Elections without salvation
The game is cruel to the player. At every step you are waiting for heavy elections. Lost your hand - or lose a friend? Surrender - or continue suffering? No choice seems correct, and everyone leaves a scar. This is not an illusion of morality - this is a blow to it.

7. Where there should be a reward - there is a punishment
Lisa Violates expectations. Where in other games a reward, there is punishment. Where there should be victory, there is a loss. And all this is framed by absurd, black humor-so strange that at some point you cease to understand whether you laugh from despair or for real.

8. People who cannot be saved
The characters are secondary, but bright. Each of them is strange, ugly, miserable, but alive. Their stories are not always important for the plot, but they fill the world with details in which there are more humanity than in all the “correct” RPG.

9. Music, like an inner cry
The soundtrack complements the atmosphere. It is torn, experimental, in some places painful. Music here is not a decoration, but a continuation of pain. Sometimes it sounds like Brad's inner voice. Sometimes - like silence after the explosion.

10. Transformation into a monster
The plot gradually deprives Brad of everything: his body, his team, his mind. He turns into a monster, trying to protect what he considers important. The game asks a terrible question: how far are you ready to go for the sake of love? And if love is also violence?

11. Final without comfort
Final Lisa: The Painful does not give relief. He does not offer forgiveness. He leaves you alone with what you did. No matter what motives were. It is important that the consequences remained. This ending is not forgotten. It remains like an internal sediment.

12. Do not pass - you live
Lisa: The Painful - This is not about passing, but about living. She is not looking for approval. She just tells her story - hard, without embellishment, with bitterness. This is not a game that is nice to play, but it is one of those who really mean something.
