Now that I think about it, Larry's not the kind to have affairs, is he? He seems more like the kind of person who tries to pick up single women, not married ones.
Of course, there's nothing to stop him "overlooking" a wedding ring or its significance. "That's a nice ring" etc... then (much later) the husband walks in. "Whadda you doing fooling with my wife?" And so on.

I think Larry's the type to just hit on women. I don't see him checking ring finger first.

Quest for Glarry 4: Shadows of Dorkness. Oh, no! And you thought everyone in Larry's World(TM) thought he was a dork because of the way he dressed.

Well - you ain't seen nuthin' yet. In Mordavia, everyone is suspicious of the hero because "he's a stranger". What if the "stranger" was wearing a leisure suit?

Mordavia is not the place for a white suit, a blue shirt, and a golden medallion. No no no. That's the way people dress if they want to get mugged.

Good luck trying to persuade the Mordavians that Larry is not a dork!

Leisure Suit Larry: In Search of the King's Quest of Glory for a Knight In Shining Armor.

Hailed as one of the games with the longest titles, you're Leisure Suit Larry - and you're in Lost Wages' "XXX-Calibur" and you've been selected for the "Tournament of Bling!"

You need to prove it's not just your white Leisure Suit that makes you a "Knight in Shining Armor" in order to win the fair maiden's hand!


For those not savvy of Vegas - it's clearly a spoof on the hotel "Excalibur" and their show "Tournament of Kings"

Quest Police: As the manager of Sierra, your job is to make sure some of these ideas never see the light of day.

Good one, notbobsmith.

Quest for Glarry 5: Dragon Fire 'Down There'. Oh, dear. Larry's escapades have finally caught up with him (especially the brief time he spent in the harem in Rasier), and for some reason an especially tender bit of his anatomy is hurtin'. Bad. Bad. Really bad.

So Larry runs to the apothecary, but "Oh Wow Man! Lookit The Pretty Colours" Salim is high again, and Julanar Salad-Bar is far too prim and proper to understand what Larry needs.

Can you help Larry get through to these two, and then gather the ingredients they need? Never mind the healing potion, Larry needs a friggin' lotion!

In the meantime, Salim calls his nice friend, Freddy Pharkas, in Coarsegold. Freddy, of course, has just the thing: Preparation G! He sends it by Fedecks to Silmaria, where Larry has just gotten back with all the ingredients, but Salim says "Never mind!" and presents Larry with the Prep-G.

Can you help Larry control his temper and not stomp on Salim's foot? "You stupid so-and-so!" etc.

Leisure Suit Larry: In the Lands Below. Larry Laffer hears about this place called "The Lands Below" and thinks he knows what it means! Now you must switch back and forth between Larry (looking for love) and Torin (trying to get Larry back on Earth!)

Just wondering what you did to make that font fit in. What's the name of that font?

Love the little character's head in the corner, even though I'm not sure what it's called (never played Torin's Passage). Is it Dooble? Boogle? Something like that.

Knight Quest. Gabriel Knight's just inherited St George's Books, but it's missing a certain ... something. A knight's suit of armour! Help Gabriel scour all the pawn shops and specialty shops in N'Orleans to find the right suit of armour for his shop.

Boogle. And the font was copy and paste from the actual screen - turn an "O" into a "D" and an "R" into a "B" - rest was cut and paste the letters.

EDIT - To be clear the title screen is from LSL2.

Quest for Lori. Help the "Quest for Glory" hero as he goes looking for Lori Cole! He wants to ask her all kinds of questions, like:

1. "Why does it never rain in Glorianna?"
2. "Why are there feral bunnies in Mordavia?"
3. "Why can't I get a decent drink that won't kill me until Silmaria?"
and
4. "Ow, ow, ow!! I've been bustin' to go for 5 games!!! Where's the friggin' toilet??!?"

(He probably is, too. Five whole games of bad food, no drink other than water, and no chance to relieve himself...)

Codename: Iceman 2: The "Ice"'s of the world unite! Ice-T! Ice Cube! Vanilla Ice! As part of a CIA covert action team, can they stop the threat to global security known as ICE-9? Featuring car chases, exciting gun battles and absolutely no submarines! And Vin Diesel is in it too because sure.

And none of them can either act or sing.

Oh! Good title.

King's Quest: Owls Well That Ends Well: A King's Quest game starring Cedric as the main character. Currently on hiatus after the entire development team quit.

Quest for Gory. The QfG combat scenarios get the Mortal Kombat treatment. If a monster kills you, you're treated (?) to a cut-scene showing the monster killing your hero in various gruesome ways. For instance, a QfG1 Brigand (armed with a spear and shield) will parade around with your hero's head on his spear, while a QfG2 ghoul will rip your hero to shreds and feast on the sweet, sweet flesh. (Ugh). Each one comes with its own, pun-laden death message.

Of course, turn-about is fair play! Every time you kill (say) a QfG1 goblin, you get a cut-scene of your hero killing the goblin and an amusing (?) message about it. (Frankly, I'm all tapped out of punny messages about death. Sorry. But hey, knock yourself out).
