News::Lisa ReviewPain and Pleasure (The Koalition)

Garrett from The Koalition writes: You may remember Lisa as that painful looking RPG on Kickstarter with cute graphics that are comparable to Earthbound. Having played both Earthbound and Lisa, I can safely say that this is a fair comparison. However, Earthbound, while undoubtedly cute, is subtle with its blemishes, as the Charlie Brown aesthetic thinly veils its horrific themes like police brutality; you could easily mistake it for a kids game. The same cant be said for Lisa, however. Yes, the sprite art is ostensibly cute, but by the time I witnessed the scene in which a young Brad Armstrong gets hit in the head with a beer bottle by his alcoholic father, I knew that Lisa is not fucking around.
