Leisure Suit Larry Domain

Good evening, Swinging Singles. It's 10 o'clock, and you're without a date, as usual. But here in Lost Wages, you need not be alone...not if you've got plenty of cash, elementary social skills, an good supply of breath spray, and a willingness to try anything once. As LEISURE SUIT LARRY, you've determined to make this the last lonely night of your life.

A few necessary conventions. First of all, the game occasionally requires you to perform some basic human functions. For the purposes of this walkthru, we'll say "USE" where another less delicate word will work just as well. Also, for women playing LEISURE SUIT LARRY, you're going to have to learn to think like a man. For the most part, that means forget the subtlety. In this game, outright deviousness and persistence gets the girl.

Inventory control is a cinch in LEISURE SUIT LARRY. You can hold everything, and only rarely will the game let you drop or otherwise misuse something before you've used it for the correct purpose. The game designers have also apparently learned where elephants go to die...your mouth. Thus, you have a large (but not bottomless) supply of breath spray. You'll want to USE SPRAY whenever somebody begins to make snide comments regarding your oral hygiene. Never walk out into the middle of the street, despite their seeming desertion. And NEVER linger in a dark alley.

You begin your evening in the Land of the Lounge Lizards in front of Lefty's, sleazy bar nonpareil. You'll find you've got (in addition to your breath spray) $94 in your wallet, as well as some notes and business cards you won't need, and credit cards (which won't work in this game). You've also got a working Bolex watch. This game spends a lot of time tipping the hat to Infocom, so you've got the requisite lint.
