I know this is long but I just enjoying this series and had fun writing this :]
A good mod that I never felt took away from the established universe. Immersion in the world feels very natural playing it and all. I often don't enjoy mods too much since I'd rather just enjoy official content when it comes to most stuff but I never felt that with this one. The challenging fights and scarce save points definitely benefit the experience of what it feels like to be living in an unsafe world where you must consistently fight to survive. While the game goes for a very hard mode like feel, it still could be just a tad more gracious with the items it gives. At least that was my experience. Just a tad tho :]
The mod has a lot of replay-ability as well. There is so much content you could never discover in one playthrough and that's not just because of achieving a different ending or making different choices in the game. Of course those are expected to yield different results, but if you take the time to look around and even back track (which i think is a wonderful touch that makes the game so enthralling to explore) new content can be found at almost any unassuming turn. Traversing the world can be troublesome sometimes when Alex moves at slow speeds (Infinity unfolds, a further expansion of this mod remedies this issue) and it's not hard to be lost trying to find enemies in downtown Olathe after you've beaten a few. A lot can slip through the cracks on your first playthrough.
If I have anything more to say about this I'll come back to this review but all in all had a lot of fun playing this and would definitely recommend this mod of a fangame (which is funny to say) to someone who has first played Lisa: The Pointless.
