I'm not sure which one to log but since I played both, I'll at least use this one.

this is a genuinely compelled set of games with a lot of layers and themes that makes a strong and cohesive narrative with a lot of really fun and dark moments. I'm kicking myself for not playing these sooner but I'm still glad I gave them a chance.

I'm always impressed with what indie devs come up with and this one is honestly no exception. Absolutely brilliant in terms of music, gameplay and character development for pretty much everyone regarding your party members, the main character and some of the enemies you come across on your journey through the apocalypse.

I do think to some extent "The Joyful" is weaker but I do love Buddy as a character even if her story doesn't hold up as well as "The Painful", but I still felt myself enjoying and engaging with it, especially towards the end with the true ending.

The use of music and the different kinds of music that is used in both games has a lot of eerie tunes that build atmosphere but also some genuine bangers. I don't think there's much I can say at this moment but I think this is now a favorite of mine that'll probably be hard to top.

it's hard to really comment much on "Lisa: The First" when it's follow ups are much stronger as games both in terms of gameplay and narrative. But I still feel this game is at least important to it's structure overall and has a lot of elements that work well with it.

The three out of five only factors in the gameplay itself. I do think once you understand it's story (which isn't hard to do) you get a deeply disturbing realization that the character you're playing as is essentially stuck in an endless cycle of abuse that she can't escape from, which is chilling. I sorta wish the gameplay had a bit "more" to it is all.
