Serenity Forge has just launched two gripping additions to the Android gaming scene this week: Lisa: The Painful and Lisa: The Joyful, both part of The Lisa Trilogy. If you've previously experienced these on PC, you're no stranger to the intense emotional journey they offer.
It's Painful and Joyful at the Same Time
New to these titles? Let me introduce you. The series began with Lisa: The First in 2012, a retro-style exploration game that plunges you into Lisa Armstrong's psyche. Navigate through a distorted reality shaped by trauma, piecing together fragmented memories, bizarre characters, and haunting VHS tapes. It's a surreal experience that subtly plays with your perceptions.
Following this, Lisa: The Painful and Lisa: The Joyful hit PC in 2014 and 2015, respectively. Now, these games are available on Android in their Definitive Editions, updated from their PC versions released in July 2023.
You Can Play The Lisa Trilogy on Android
Lisa: The Painful casts you as Brad Armstrong, traversing the desolate wasteland of Olathe in search of his adopted daughter, Buddy. The game combines brutal misery with dark humor; your decisions have lasting consequences. You might lose limbs, sacrifice companions, or take hits for others.
In Lisa: The Joyful, the concluding chapter, you control Buddy. After the catastrophic White Flash, Olathe is a darker place, populated solely by men, except for her. As Buddy, you must survive, seek vengeance, and conceal your identity amidst a world that's grown even more sinister. The choices you face are agonizing and will fundamentally alter your gameplay experience.
The Definitive Editions come packed with enhancements: updated battle systems, six new Warlord skills, new border art, a music player, and a 'painless mode' for a less intense experience.
Ready to embark on a journey that's dark, bizarre, yet profoundly crafted? Dive into Lisa: The Painful and Lisa: The Joyful of The Lisa Trilogy on Android.
