Larry Laffer is a 40-year old virgin. After leaving behind his geeky life, he decides to visit the sinful city of Lost Wages (a reference to Las Vegas), experience what he hasn't lived before, and find the woman of his dreams.
Locations within the city of Lost Wages include a casino-hotel, a disco, a convenience store, a cheap vegas-style wedding chapel, and Lefty's Bar. Larry's quest involves four women: a prostitute (which leaves Larry's need for love unsatisfied), Fawn (a material girl of low moral fibre), Faith (a faithful girlfriend of someone who is not Larry), and Eve (Larry's girl for this game).
An important part of the game is that the player has to take care of his money, which is spent whenever he travels by taxi or buys things. A way to augment the amount is to gamble in the casino, playing Blackjack or slots, which is obligatory at least twice during the course of the game.... (more)(less)
"Leisure Suit Larry started out as a text adventure starring the sleazy Larry as he traveled around town hitting up bars and trying to seduce women.
It was a goofy game rife with sexual overtones and blatantly adult content that was warned about even at the start of the game.
And while it isn’t necessarily the best game ever made, it is no less important to the discussion of how we should go about handing themes of sex in video games."
"Designed by Al Lowe and released in 1987 by Sierra, Leisure Suit Larry was a big hit, but was also considered one of the most widely pirated games of the 1980s."

Listal: Leisure Suit Larry series
This recently-reborn series had its roots in classic DOS adventure gaming, with the hilarious in 'Land of Lounge Lizards'. This adult-theme adventure series was created by Al Lowe, who also was the lead programmer for Police Quest I and King's Quest III. After the first three very popular games, Al Lowe told press there would never be a 4th. So a few years later, he released Leisure Suite Larry"
