“The consumer
demand for an Adults Only-rated version of
Leisure Suit Larry prompted VU
Games to give the fans what they’ve been asking for,” said Philip W. O’Neil,
President, North America, Vivendi Universal Games. “In
Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude –Uncut
and Uncensored we’re taking a walk on a wilder side with even more
outlandish misadventures and sexual escapades.”
Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude
is the coming of age story of Larry Lovage, nephew of Larry Laffer, the
series’ original lovable loser. The game follows the racy and often randy
hijinks of Laffer, a sixth-year-senior enrolled at the local community
college, as he attempts to get the attention of a bevy of bodacious on-campus
beauties. When a reality TV dating show comes to campus, Larry decides he’s
going to revitalize his life by winning the contest and proving once and for
all that he can live up to the shining example set by his Old Uncle Larry.
However, over the course of the game Larry finds, much like his uncle, that
the best laid plans don’t always go as intended.
Players will be able to experience hilarious
college moments as they explore 17 different locations on and around the
college campus, interacting with sexy female characters and playing dozens of
mini-games, including Quarters, Tapper, Trampoline and Wet T-shirt Contests.
With more than 90,000 words of dialogue, players can create custom
conversations in real time as Larry speaks with more than 15 beautiful girls,
and interacts with a host of other characters.
