Description

Passionate Patti Does a Little Undercover Work! is the fourth game in Al Lowe's Leisure Suit Larry series. Protagonist Larry Laffer fell off a boat during a cruise and sustained amnesia, forgetting how he and Patti got separated, how Larry got a job in LA, how Patti got a job with the FBI, and what happened in (the never released) Larry 4. As in the third game, two different characters with their own story are pursued. The goal is to bring Larry and Patti together while you fulfil Patti's undercover work.

Trivia

You thought product placement would only occur in the movies? Not quite. Sierra might well have been the first company to place an advertisement in a computer game. US-American telephone company Sprint paid to be featured in Leisure Suit Larry 5. Whenever Larry or Patti were making a phone call in the game (which happened quite a few times), the call would end with the line "Thank you for using U.S. Sprint!" and later in Space Quest V: The Next Mutation. See the screenshot section for graphic proof of the advertisement.
