Leisure Suit Larry will come again!
This year the game industry legend, the ladies man, and just a good guy, Larry Laffer, will return to us. Thanks to the site kickstarter.com the necessary funds were raised, and in the development of the new game, El Low, the creator of the original Larry, will take the most direct part.
Unfortunately, this is not the long ago promised eighth part (“Lust in Space”), but only a remake of the original 1987 Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards game of 1987. In the first part, the player was controlled by arrows, and all actions, such as “open the door”, “read the graffiti”, etc. I literally had to type it myself.

Tellingly, this fall Larry will be waiting for us, because in 1991 a remake was already released in VGA-graphics, with classic point-and-click controls. Most likely, you played it in him. And, most likely, you played a wonderful translation of the group from Rostov-on-Don “Taralaj & Jabocrack Software”. “I am from SAE”, remember?
They promise that this is only the first swallow, and in the future they plan to remake all six parts of the series. The fourth part, Leisure Suit Larry 4: The Missing Floppies , never happened, and everything that came out after the seventh had nothing to do with the real Larry, because Al Lowe in the creation of these games did not participate. Who knows, maybe after successful remakes, Replay Games, founded by people from Sierra Online, will make the eighth part promised 16 years ago.
