LISA: The Painful is an RPG designed solely with the intent of messing with the player.

That's why if you fall for its trick with the tall climbing rope, you have no one else but yourself to blame for the humiliation that awaits you on top.

One of the strangest and dangerously captivating locations in the game is the incredibly tall rope at the peak of a cliffside.

When you get to it, it quickly turns out the rope isn't your average climb. It just keeps going, and there seems to be no end, so naturally some players are inclined to find out what's on the other side.

This climb takes dedication, so much so that you will be climbing the rope for minutes without ever seeing the top. Once you do reach the end, the reveal is... a middle finger.

Literally. At the top of this minutes-long trip is a giant statue of a middle finger.

To add injury to insult, getting off the peak isn't as easy as jumping, because doing so will cause your character to die instantly.

This experience is basically LISA in a nutshell.
