Description
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.
Larry, the game's protagonist, is a short, tacky, balding, leisure suit-wearing kinda guy who's constantly searching for his next score. His combination of stupidity and brashness gets Larry into trouble. The object is to get him out of trouble in traditional adventure fashion, finding and manipulating objects as you thread your way through the story line. The content is comedic and adult-oriented. A graphical interface is used with a text parser to input commands. Typical of Sierra games, progress is tracked through a set amount of points, awarded for advancement or minor actions.

Trivia
Larry Laffer owes his first name to Jerry, a fried of Al Lowe who believed himself to be a great lover, and Arthur Laffer, an economist. Arthur Laffer for years had no idea about the games until Al Lowe sent him a letter. Lowe planned to program Laffer Utilities and asked his permission about it. Laffer gave the permission and also paid a visit to the Sierra On-line studios. Laffer's secretary had played the games for years, but never made a connection.
