Leisure Suit Larry Goes Looking for Love (In Several Wrong Places) is the second game in Al Lowe's Leisure Suit Larry series. Continuing the plot of the previous game, the swinging single Larry Laffer has finally found his true love and is happily living with her. Right? Wrong!.. Because Larry is mercilessly thrown out by his great love and is left all alone, penniless, and womanless, in Los Angeles. Accidentally, Larry comes into contact with KGB agents who will pursue him all over the globe from now on. And there is also the evil doctor Noontonyt plotting evil schemes on a remote tropical island... Looks like Larry will have to forget about his women-related problems for now... or is it so? The second game in the series introduces an improved engine (allowing for full-screen graphics and mouse control for movement). As opposed to the first game, which relied on exploration of one large area, the sequel has a more linear progression, the player being continuously taken to new locations as dictated by the plot. There are less puzzles in this installment than in the previous game; however, the number of ways to die has increased, danger awaiting Larry in most places he visits. Less

giopep's review of Leisure Suit Larry 2: Goes Looking for Love (in Several Wrong Places)
This review is for the PC (Microsoft Windows) version

I think this is the first Sierra game i Played as a kid and I have very fond memories of doing so, even though in my mind the graphics were completely different. Anyhoo, it’s a very ambitious sequel, that goes for a spy story vibe with Larry as a “casual hero” that kinda stumbles into a web of international conspiracies. It’s full of funny jokes and some of them are a bit more sophisticated than you would expect from the horny game. It’s also full of all the harsh deaths and dead ends you would expect from a vintage Sierra game, but I guess that comes with the territory. But it’s a fun game! Also, shout out to the guy from my video games store in Milan that back then, when as a pre-teen I showed him the Larry 2 box and said I wanted games from that genre (meaning: point and click), looked at me weirdly and then took me to the strip poker games shelf.

Frump's review of Leisure Suit Larry 2: Goes Looking for Love (in Several Wrong Places)

It's just tedious and an exercise in frustration. It's intentionally difficult at such a bullshit level that it rarely becomes fun. There is almost no logic to the puzzles and everything is trial-and-error. Every time you die, it pushes an advertisement for a hint book, which seems like the real selling point here. There are a few moments of cleverness, something I begrudgingly admit, but these are few and far between. Most of the jokes are the lamest of the lame but it did get a few chuckles out of me here and there, at least. I dunno, I just don't see much appeal in these early Sierra graphic adventures. It's pretty clear why the LucasArts brand won the Adventure Wars in the end.

But hate be damned, I'm gonna play through the whole Larry series because I'm a glutton for punishment.

enter image description hereWelp, I got to the point where I'm in the Green Room waiting to go on stage, but lost interest. Navigation is just too slow and it lacks that urgency that Maniac Mansion had where you push through the slowness cuz you're eager to see what happens next. By no means was this bad, it's surprisingly good for a silly humor type adventure game, but wasn't worth pushing through.
