Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards for MS-DOS PCs is a classic adult game. 40-year old virgin Larry Laffer heads to town looking for love, riches and a new life-style. Visiting a number of places, interacting with a host of characters, gambling to support himself, and pushing the envelope of questionable behavior, Larry seeks to lose his virginity.

A game obviously meant to be played by little boys when their parents are out of the house. Problem is, it also seems to have been written by such… presumably catholic school boys who are trying to make 'forbidden sex jokes' (or what they consider to be sex jokes). I've rarely played such a prudish game (it appears to be even more prudish just by trying not to be and failing).

What I always recall about this game is the deaths. No sex jokes or anything, deaths everywhere. You try to cross the road? You die. You try to go to the back alley? You die. You use the bathroom? You die.

It's typical Sierra, but these games make me feel paranoid. Everything is trying to kill you.

That's protection against minors, so they'd keep wondering.. and i think they wouldn't find it as much funny as folks who actually do know what can happen if you have sex with hell knows who without a "lubber" :)

P.S. Al Lowe is a little known but genius.

The moment you start up this game, you know you're in for a treat. The cheesy music, accompanied with two-and-a-half colours active on screen and an intro featuring a dork in a white tuxedo, chasing what appears to be, a blow-up doll. Yes, welcome in the Land of the Lounge Lizards.
