Leisure Suit Larry: Love for Sail!

Nice gameplay, very good interface and some fun puzzles and jokes. But then, rather many odd or illogical puzzles, and what really takes the cake is the often kindergarten-style humor. Very annoying.

As a diehard Larry fan, I somehow missed this one. Back in the day, I had all the LSL games (1-3, 5, Shape up). This game does not live up to those -- or maybe it just hasn't aged well. The jokes are very cheesy and I just didn't find myself laughing much or enjoying the game. The entire game takes place on a ship so the locales are not very diverse. Meh... i guess it is worth a couple of bucks but I would have been mad paying full price for this when it was released.

"Insta-buy" and "Must own" for any point-and-click adventure fan out there. The latest (with what's been going on on lately hopefully not last) installment of the classic Leisure Suit Larry series. It has a more "cartoon-ish" look than the previous ones and also has more boobs-per-pixel than any other Larry games, you just have to know where to look. PS Come on GOG? bring out the CD SVGA Talkie version of the Larry 6!!

I am a fan of the "Leisure Suit Larry" series and I do not like this game. I don't see why everybody thinks it's the best game in the series. The artwork is terrible. I have never been a fan of the "upgrade" from VGA graphics to SVGA graphics. VGA graphics were fine. Why did Sierra have to fix what wasn't broken? And because of the artwork, the women in this game are not attractive (which defeats the whole purpose of the game) and while I get that Larry is not supposed to be attractive, in this game he looks bad even for Larry. The cut scenes are fun, which I guess is why the game is so popular. The problem is getting them to happen. The interface is really REALLY hard to figure out. It's a hybrid of point -and-click and text parser. I don't know of any other game that has an interface like this. The puzzles are hard enough without this interface and trying to solve the puzzles while you're trying to figure out the interface... UGH! I had to use a walkthrough a lot, which defeats the purpose. There are no deaths. I have found that adventure games where you can't die are less fun than the ones that you can die in. In addition to not being pretty, none of the women are all that likable. I wouldn't sleep with any of them. Then again Larry will sleep with just about any female. The voice acting is... okay for this game, but would be bad in most other games. The voice acting for "Larry 6" was much better. The music is also okay for this game, but I don't care for it. The jazzy version of the Larry theme strips the tune of all its charm IMO. There's even a gambling game that you can't skip. Why did Al Lowe never learn that gambling does not belong in adventure games? Worst of all, the plot makes no sense. The introduction, showing us how we got from "Larry 6" to Larry 7" is the most nonsensical thing ever. The best things I can say about this game are: it has no dead ends, you can teleport where you need to go easily, and it's better than "Larry 5."

LSL lost & found on sea!
