I was looking forward to seeing a Larry game with input from Al Lowe but this one is a disappointment. The first Larry Game is the least interesting one of all. It has only a few locations and the puzzles are only so-so. The voice of the announcer is annoying just like Larry's voice (which is probably deliberate). There are a few funny jokes here and there but nothing that made me laugh out loud. The interface remains unchanged which is a pity because I've really had it with scrolling through a list of icons since I've played Lucasart, Westwood and Revolution games. Having to repeatedly save and load in order to gain enough cash by playing the same boring game again and again also is no fun. The angry birds parody looked promising but it turns out you can't actually play the game. There is also a large amount of pixel hunting required in order to find some of the necessary items. Tying a rope to Larry's waist also took me ten minutes of precision clicking. I would still love to see one of the better Larry Laffer games like Love for Sail in HD or a completely new Larry game. But this game just isn't worth the purchase. Just play the original (VGA remake) instead.
