Leisure Suit Larry 4: The Missing Floppies - Leisure Suit Larry 5

Leisure Suit Larry 5

Al Lowe skipped the fourth part altogether in order to surpass the problems of continuing the definite finale of Larry 3. This allowed him to introduce (intentionally) some grey plot points and begin freely a whole new adventure with Larry 5.

According to production notes (given by Lowe himself) the following events must be assumed to have happened between Larry 3 and Larry 5 in order to logically connect the two games:

  • Larry and Patti plan to marry
  • Patti leaves him at a Yosemite church to pursue her career, but Larry is gone when she returns
  • The villain of Larry 5, Julius Biggs, somehow steals the game disks and Larry suffers amnesia

The absence of the floppy disks was a plot element in the sequel since this is the explanation why Larry, as a computer generated character, came to suffer from amnesia.

Famous quotes containing the words leisure, suit and/or larry:

    The secret of being miserable is to have leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not. The cure for it is occupation.

    Calm is the morn without a sound,
    Calm as to suit a calmer grief,
    And only through the faded leaf
