Incoming LP - Leisure Suit Larry Reloaded - JadePharaoh - 03-31-2014 I've wanted to do LSL for some time, and while I've been concerned that the adult content will cause my videos to be flagged and possibly put a black mark on my channel, I've seen other LPers now do them without any problem. Anyway LSL Reloaded is a remake of the PC classic, Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards. For those unaware, LSL is a series of point-and-click adventure games made by Sierra, in the same vein as King's Quest, but with gobs of raunchy adult humor. After six successful games were made, Sierra closed its doors and the series was picked up by other developers and released the abysmal Magna Cum Laude and Box Office Bust, which seemed guaranteed to kill the series for good. Then series creator Al Lowe and the KickStarter community came forward and launched a successful crowdfunder to revive the series. Personally, I wish they had made a new LSL game instead of just remaking the first. The first game already received a remake in 1991; hell, even the original LSL started off as a remake of a Sierra text-based game called Softporn Adventure. At least the remake has a few new puzzles added even if 90% of the game is just the same game with updated graphics and sound (the graphics are on par with LSL7: Love for Sail, and I'm pretty sure they got back Larry's voice actor from that game to reprise the role - that or the guy they got sounds exactly like him). So with that in mind, I waited for the price to come down on the game before buying it. I scored a sweet deal on GoG a couple weeks ago, so get ready to kick back in your leisure suit and a stiff drink, and enjoy the retelling of Larry's quest to get laid in the skeezy town of Lost Wages! |
