Description

Love for Sail! is the sixth game in Al Lowe's Leisure Suit Larry series. Larry unexpectedly receives a ticket to a cruise ship. Upon the arrival of the passengers, a mega-contest is announced. This contest includes various kinds of sports and activities, from bowling to love-making. The winner will get to "score" with the sexy Captain Thigh. Naturally, there is no way Larry can win this contest fairly, so he must use his brains to solve the tricky puzzles of the game, and to cheat his way into the Captain's bed.

The game features a context-sensitive interface: clicking on an object brings forth a series of verbs which the player can choose in order to interact with the given object. In addition to that, it is possible to try and type any other verb (provided the game understands it), just like in old adventure games with text interface. Sometimes it is necessary to think outside of the box and to come up with unusual actions in order to solve a puzzle.

A lot of new features have been added to this version that make the player into an "active" part of the game. Using a microphone, players can add their own voice, while using a scanner lets players insert their own photos. Another feature that grabs attention is the automatic wallpaper. When Larry "scores" with a woman, that woman's image can be displayed as wallpaper on the Windows 95 desktop.

Trivia

Follow these instructions to install the game successfully under Windows XP: Go to "Display Properties", click on the "Appearance" tab and select "windows Classic Style" from the list captioned "Windows and Buttons". Now run Setup.exe directly from your Larry 7 CD-ROM. After installing the game you may restore your favorite Appearance settings. Also, if you want to run the game in full screen you must change the screen resolution to 640x480. If there is no such option under "Display Properties", enter the folder where Larry 7 is installed (probably C:\Sierra\LSL7) and select "Properties" by right-clicking on SIERW5.EXE. Then go to "Compatibility" options and select "Run in 640x480 screen resolution". Now run SIERW5.EXE. Everything should be fine now.
