A middle-aged male virgin named Larry Laffer desperately tries to "get lucky" in the fictional American city of Lost Wages. Your goal in Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards is to find and seduce the girl of your dreams. This goal won't come easy, because you only have one night, and unfortunately, you are stuck with Larry's looks. Other problems, such as lack of money, lack of opportunity, and bad breath can complicate things significantly. Your interaction with the game controls the outcome of each situation. For example, having your character sign on with a major league baseball team or start a successful men's magazine could be beneficial to your ultimate goal. On the other hand, catching a fatal disease or losing all your cash can only impede your progress. A combination of common sense, logical thinking, and downright sheer luck is needed to achieve your goal.

The intro "age verification" is quirky, but kind of iffy with outdated references and a force quit which takes forever on the Steam version.
Love the way these games are handled. Every interaction from looking at objects or talking to people has their own bit of flavor text. Options seem endless.
Very funny stuff that oozes with charm, lots of tongue in cheek(s). Some of the "puzzles" are a bit long (the amount of TV channels for the pimp could have been lowered,) and there's a fair amount of point-and-click backtracking.
Love the developer and Sierra references!
The most creative and fun feature was the age check in the form of various questions (which of course only an adult can know😃) before you can start the game. Ingenious use of this "mechanic".
