Review Outpost's Matt Lane brings us his personal review of Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude. Matt gives Larry an overall 755 out of 100% score:-)
I'll be honest with you reader, I wasn't really into this game after a while. The conversation part of the game was pretty cool, but beyond that I just wasn't feeling the, 1.Meet girl 2.converse, mix drink, dance, and pick up stuff 3.Cutscene 4. Go to step one, style of gameplay. The little stories surrounding the different encounters really weren't that great. That is, until I started to woo Beatrice in the lab.
This story gets really strange, really quick. I don't want to give too much away, but if you look closely during a conversation, you will notice a little picture of Dr. Zaius as one of the options you can pick. The mere fact that they are making a Planet of the Apes joke, as well as the fact that they are only going to show that picture once in the whole game, pretty much saved it for me.
In the end, if you picked up a Leisure Suit Larry game in the first place, you know why you're getting it: Polygonal Boobies, and this game doesn't disappoint. |
