Of course the size of the game’s inventory can look intimidating as it blows up quickly at first.

Long playing time, especially for an adventure (~15 hours) - Easy, efficient controls - Great gameflow, you usually always know what has to be done next in order to further the story - Nice humor with lots of funny cultural references - World is full of positively weird and quirky NPCs - A lot of usable items, which speaks for the great variety in puzzles and quests. As long as you pay attention and revisit locations/NPCs help from a walkthrough should hardly ever be necessary. Pros: - Plenty of classic (inventory-based) puzzles with usually perfectly balanced difficulty. I also liked the in-game time jump from 1987 to 2018 which has resulted in the game being full to the brim with witty references to our modern social media culture but also plenty of nods to the older LSL games (eg it‘s possible to die - thanks to autosave without much consequences though, there‘s a section that plays and looks similar to the first Larry game etc). Anyway, didn‘t expect too much when I first heard of it but in the end LSL: Wet Dreams Don‘t Dry has become a very decent classic Point’n’click adventure with a neatly balanced puzzle difficulty, quirky characters and for the most part a funny story. The game‘s certainly no masterpiece but just giving a terrible score from screenshots or because it doesn‘t have pixel graphics like LSL from the 80‘s is a crappy thing to do. Before this it had 7.5 user score - similar to the critic’s average. It’s also pretty suspicious that - apart from Fuz’ fake review - none of the negatives are able to back up their score with any reasons - A few accounts just have voted the game and most positive reviews down with very little effort.


That his "review" is the most liked here really says a lot about the intelligence and niveau of a lot of Metacritic users. Regrettably I had posted about the release and he immediately rejected it without playing a single second (apparently just by looking at screenshots and a trailer he "knows" that this game is "wrong from head to toe"). I know for a fact from an adventure game forum that he didn’t even play the game. Don’t trust the negative user scores, especially the guy with the 3 point negative. I know for a Rather positively surprised about the game. Rather positively surprised about the game.
