While the latest news about Leisure Suit Larry: In the Land of the Lounge Lizards coming to the C64 was a huge hit for the website, there was another game that's well worth checking out if you want some Larry-like goodness right now, and it's Vector5 Games 'Herra 47 : Midsummer Festival'. A new game that one of our readers even went as far as saying, " pretty much the blueprint for a Sierra style adventure! It has much less text and perhaps a bit less complexity but it clearly shows, this can be done". To coincide with this news, make sure to check out the latest footage below! Oh and thanks for the heads up readers, tis a good game indeed ;).
And while the game features 39 rooms to explore, 3 mini-games a unique story, plenty of low-grade humor and even a save/load game system (disk/cartridge) all set in that awesome classic Sierra designed goodness. Here's the story in brief "amidst all the preparations and the anticipation of reuniting with familiar faces, Herra 47 harbors a personal aspiration for this Midsummer Festival. Beyond the joy of hosting and celebrating, he secretly hopes to find a meaningful connection, a Midsummer companion to share the warmth of the bonfire and the magic of the long summer nights".

Dumpster diving huh? A new high for an adventure game.
ReplyDeleteIf memory serves, Larry did that too, in LSLI, optionally more than once...
DeleteYes a dumpster and bathroom stalls are essential for that type of humor.
DeleteYou went around zapping people's office garbage in one of the Space Quest games!
DeleteFor some reason I am really digging it :D
