Moving between some of the locations can only be done by cab. The game allows the player to access most of its locations (a bar, a casino, a convenience store, etc.) from the very beginning, with only a few key ones being barred due to the lack of a crucial item. Progress is achieved by collecting various items and figuring out which of those may be essential for conquering the hearts of the several female characters appearing in the game.
The gameplay is similar to other third-person Sierra adventures: a text parser is used to input commands for interaction with a graphical environment.
Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards is the first game in Al Lowe's Leisure Suit Larry series, largely inspired by the text adventure Softporn Adventure, though with a greatly enhanced script containing more humorous descriptions and dialogue. Clad in a white polyester leisure suit, Larry finds himself outside of Lefty's Bar, determined to finally lose his virginity - or commit suicide if he is unable to achieve that goal before dawn. He used to be in the software business, but decided to leave everything behind as he moved to the city of Lost Wages in pursuit of sexual fulfillment. sad they were all free for mac and the pc emulator for ages since al lowe got screwed by some of his friends.Larry Laffer is a short, tacky, balding, forty-year-old man who has been living with his mother until recently. but more emphasis on killing than strats and tacts. not many people making games out of CIA factbooks or of geopolitics. not at all strange im a big fan of political and strategic games -the obscure like Floor 13th and others- that genre. he´s a gentleman :)- well you see one interview about the "author" of the game but we -the oldies leeching stuff from this wONDERFUL site :) - knew the authors, be it Al Lowe, Lord British, Roberta and Ken Williams, etc. Not to look back in melancholy or whatever but well, it´s a matter of technology getting more complex and the tastes of the persons (Larry wouldnt go GTA on a "bitch". I played as a teen, having read Hunter Thompson -lounge lizards :)- and some stuff and loved this game. I guess al Lowe knew kids at the time were smarter than their parents and would figure it out some times.
This one has a message too -long gone are the times when an author encourages the use of condoms to avoid your penis exploding :). Lulz probablly most of the players that enjoyed this great adventure were "mature".
