Leisure Suit Larry

Just finished a play through of LS 1-3. Happy to say, they mostly still hold up. Plan on playing 5, 6, and 7.

    LSL 2 was a bit frustrating. The game was designed around needing a hint book, because the first game was heavily pirated. They sold more hint books than the game. So, in a poor design decision, some of the puzzles were purposefully made more "abstract" to entice players into buying a hintbook. Doesn't help that the game recommends ordering a hint book everytime you die.

      The timed challenges in 2 were insufferable. Default speed is fricking turtle speed and you can very easy get fricked and force a restart if you save at the wrong time

    LSL 6 and 7 are much less cruel than earlier Sierra games but they are very comfy to play. You just chill at an luxury resort/cruise liner, explore the locations and talk to people, slowly progressing through the events.

    My favorite is LSL4, so sublime. I've never played an adventure game better than 4, it simply is flawless in all respects.
    In seriousness, while the later three games are good, they are generally a bit too easy. LSL5 will basically play itself if you let it.

      It was alright, but I still can't wrap my head why they thought an LSL MMO would be a good idea. Especially when there is only one class to choose- classless

    Though everyone loves 7 or 1 the best, I liked 6. Jokes were funny, resort was a cool setting and one chick ends up having a dick making larry fricking terrified.

    I started with 5, and it was my introduction to the point & click adventure genre. While they may not be for modern audiences, they were pretty interesting to me in their day.

      Oh wait I did too, well, when I was 15 or so. I guess I have nothing. Pretty sure I played Nocturnal Illusion in 8th or 9th grade. We both turned out very well adjusted.

    I remember year ago reading an article by the person who wrote the age verification questions in LSL1 and he revealed he was underage when he wrote them. Did anyone else ever read this?

      He wanted to make sure his parents couldn't play it so they wouldn't find out just what kind of game their son was working on

    Games either hold up, or they don't. Leisure Suit Larry still holds up, in general I would say because it's humor is just well-written and doesn't rely too much on time-period humor, with jokes that even today would make an M-rated game blush.
