The critically acclaimed duo, Lisa: The Painful and Lisa: The Joyful, have made a surprise release on mobile just before the weekend. If you don't dive into these emotionally charged RPGs, you'll be missing out on an experience that hits right at the heart.

Set in the post-apocalyptic world of Olathe, you'll follow Brad Armstrong on his harrowing journey to reunite with his adoptive daughter, Buddy. The series is renowned for blending engaging gameplay with a deeply challenging and ethically complex narrative. It's not for the faint-hearted, but if you're up for a soul-searching adventure, the Lisa series might be exactly what you've been seeking.

This is gonna' hurtAlthough the story and choices in Lisa can be emotionally taxing, the gameplay itself remains accessible, resembling a traditional turn-based RPG. You'll assemble a squad of companions to navigate the bleak landscapes and confront various enemies. Be warned, however, as your companions are vulnerable; certain attacks or events can permanently remove them from your team. The mobile versions, part of the Definitive Edition, boast new mechanics, stunning HD visuals, and numerous enhancements.
