Leisure Suit Larry: Wet Dreams Don't Dry

Leisure Suit Larry: Wet Dreams Don’t Dry is a comedy adventure game with a point-n-click interface. It is the newest entry in the popular series started by Sierra. Wet Dreams Don’t Dry was developed by a new development team – Crazy Bunch Studios from Germany. Al Lowe, the creator of the series, did not participate in the development – he retired after completing the works on Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded.

Plot

The main protagonist of the game is once again Larry Laffer – a no-longer-young man whose life is focused on picking up women. This task isn’t easy for him as he wasn’t blessed with being even a bit attractive to women. Although the game takes place in modern times, mentally Larry remains in the eighties’. The contrast of his personality and convictions with the modern reality is one of the main sources of the jokes in the game.

This time Larry is trying to pick up Faith, an assistant of the boss of Prune, a digital industry corporation. Larry decides that classic methods won’t work in this case and he decides to use Timber, a dating app. He hopes that his sexual successes will let him obtain enough points on his profile to trigger some interest from Faith.

Mechanics

Leisure Suit Larry: Wet Dreams Don’t Dry is a classic adventure game with a point-n-click interface. The players are spending most of their time on exploring locations, participating in conversations and solving riddles.

The world in the game consists of more than thirty locations. It has an open structure and the gameplay is partially non-linear. During the game, the players can use the Timber virtual app in which the pickups are presented as various logical challenges.

Technical aspects

Leisure Suit Larry: Wet Dreams Don’t Dry introduces some changes to the style of the series. The protagonist is no longer the size of a dwarf and his proportions are more realistic. The rest of the graphics are similar to the classic game Leisure Suit Larry 7: Love for Sail – they feature cartoon-like two-dimensional visuals filled with light colors.

It is worth mentioning that one of the main artists responsible for the graphics of the game is Jo Lott, who previously worked on Deponia series.
