Lisa timeline

[Anglo Saxon]

So I want to play the LISA series in order but I'm not sure the order.
is LISA the first first or is just LISA first and what about joyful and painful

[tentaclemage]

Lisa the First comes first.
Then Lisa the Painful.
Then Lisa the Joyful

The two games available for purchase on Steam are LISA "The Painful" and LISA "The Joyful". These are games 2 & 3, respectively.

Game 1 is Lisa "The First", which is not on steam but is free to download, just search it up online.
Lisa "The First" is made in a different, older game engine, and the second two games were kickstarted and greenlit on the strength of the first game.

In order, then:

#1 Lisa "The First", free download, google it.
#2 LISA "The Painful", buy it on Steam as LISA.
#3 LISA "The Joyful", buy it on Steam as DLC for LISA.

Thanks guys but lisa the joyful is dlc and what about the LISA game on steam with no other name should I play lisa the first then the dlc and then just LISA

The one simply called LISA is Lisa the Painful. People just often add on "the Painful" to be more specific (and since its often been officially referred to as "LISA: The Painful RPG").

Playing Lisa "The First" is optional, since it just fills in a bit of backstory to two characters related to Brad, but you still get the gist of things in Lisa the Painful anyway. Play it first if you're interested, but feel free to skip it if you'd like.

You should definitely play LISA/Lisa The Painful before Joyful though, since Joyful resumes from right where Painful left off (and even the game's opening has some major spoilers as a result). Also while Joyful's listed as DLC, it's technically a separate game, just a smaller and shorter one.
