Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards was the first game in the Leisure Suit Larry series. The game follows a loser named Larry Laffer, who decides to visit the city of Lost Wages and find the woman of his dreams. The game features lewd scenes and sexual encounters, as Larry attempts to win the affections of many different women.

Notes

This game was a graphical remake of a text adventure titled Softporn Adventure, which was released by Sierra in 1981.
It, in turn, received two remakes of its own. The original 16 color AGI version was updated with a 256 color SCI remake in 1991. Then, it was updated again using a custom Unity engine in 32-bit color, high definition resolution (as Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded) in 2013.

Installation

For more information on how ScummVM uses game data files, see the user documentation.

Required data files - SCI

WARNING: Unlike other games, SCI games have significant variation in the naming of required files.

They also can load supplementary files by resource maps, so it is recommended to keep all files in the game data directory from the CD.

Unless otherwise specified, do NOT remove any file from the directory, even if it does not appear on the following list, since this will likely cause weird bugs.

Copy all files to the game directory. Some games need additional work:

Floppy games with RESOURCE.p01, p02, etc. and/or RESOURCE.a01, a02, etc. files

Concatenate all RESOURCE.p0* files to RESOURCE.000 (e.g. copy /b RESOURCE.p0* RESOURCE.000 on Windows, or cat RESOURCE.p0* > RESOURCE.000 on *nix).
Concatenate all RESOURCE.a0* files to RESOURCE.AUD (e.g. copy /b RESOURCE.a0* RESOURCE.AUD on Windows, or cat RESOURCE.a0* > RESOURCE.AUD on *nix).

Required data files - AGI

All platforms

*VOL.* (e.g. GRVOL.0, KQ4VOL.11, VOL.1)
OBJECT
*DIR* (e.g. PQDIR, MH2DIR, DMDIR, DIRS, LOGDIR, PICDIR, SNDDIR, VIEWDIR)
WORDS.TOK

and if available

PAL.*

Apple IIGS

These files are needed to enable music playback

*.SYS16 (e.g. KQ.SYS16, LL.SYS16, MG.SYS16, BC.SYS16, SQ2.SYS16)
SIERRASTANDARD

Controls

Predictive input dialog

The Predictive Input Dialog is a ScummVM aid for running AGI engine games (which notoriously require command line input) on devices with limited keyboard support.

For more information, see the AGI/Predictive Dialog wiki page.
