Lugaru feels a lot to me like American McGee's Alice. An ugly, awkward, generally bad game made on a shoestring budget and packed with an underbaked combat system and cliched, basic storyline, it nonetheless manages to be charming. It's extraordinarily short, but given its origins as an indie, shareware title, I still can't help but respect it. You absolutely shouldn't play Lugaru, but you should be aware of it and its significance.
