After the last 2 MISERABLE games, Al Lowe finally got his baby back in this quasi-new-somewhat-original game. With the help of a successful Kickstarter campaign Al Lowe has brought us back Leisure Suit Larry 1: In the land of the lounge lizards reloaded! Now I know what you're thinking, "wasn't this game ALREADY remade?" " Can't I just get this game in the Leisure Suit Larry Pack?" I'm here to tell you that while yes this is Larry 1 and Yes this game was already remade in 1991, this ISN'T that game! This game has a HD make-over with all new jokes, a dialog tree (like Monkey Island and Sam and Max) New puzzles and even a NEW girl to chase after! This is not a money grab people I assure you! This is a new Al Lowe game! If you love Leisure Suit Larry you'll love this! If you're scared of Larry Laffer, don't worry he is a wimp and his bites hurt less than a mosquito. Al Lowe promises more "Reloads" of the rest of the series if this game is successful so if you're one of the people thinking "Damn why didn't he remake Leisure Suit Larry 3" HE PLANS TO! But only if we show we want it! For people living under a rock for several decades Leisure Suit Larry tells the story of a 39 year old computer engineer who is tired of being a virgin and a loser and decides to throw caution to the wind, quit his job get in his '69 VW Bug and drive to Lost Wage leaving you $76 and there you the player starts on Larry (seemly) never ending quest to find love.
Leisure Suit Larry was the brain child of Al Lowe. He loved and cared for the concept of Larry Laffer. After Larry 7 Sierra Online sold the rights to Codemasters who made this "Leisure Suit Larry." Al Lowe desperately attempted to get in on this game (also the following disaster Box Office Bust.) This game doesn't follow the "Lovable Loser" Larry Laffer but his Millennial nephew Larry Lovage and his adventures through college. Gone is the classic Sierra Online point and click interface, instead bad jumping mechanics and stupid mini-games replace it. If this game wasn't named Leisure Suit Larry it could had beena passable budget title for bored people who want to see wet T-shirts from early 2000's graphical women. Instead this game pretty much pissed all over a great series. Playing this game is like watching Hellraiser 9 or a SyFy sequel to Robocop, it PLAYABLE but it just isn't good. The writers had no idea how to write this game (because this is Al Lowes brain child) so they went with crude college humor with plenty of poorly done rip offs from Jim Belushi movies. If you love the previous games I don't have to tell you to stay away. If you want to see boobs from a 3D girl made in 2004 and love minigames at least wait until GoG puts this on sale. Otherwise wait for the new Leisure Suit Larry Reboot being made by Al Lowe. "Thank Gawd he got the rights back"
