At the top of the escalator at the airport, you can find Leisure Suite Larry. Talk to him him to hear the Leisure Suite Larry tune. Talk to him some more for some funny lines.
In the death scene where Sonny gets locked up after randomly shooting around, there is also a picture of king Graham of King's Quest IV in the newspaper.
In the homicide office, use your phone to call the Sierra Customer Support Line: (209) 683-6858.
When you call this number there is also a 30% chance that Al Lowe (designer of Leisure Suit Larry) answers the phone. He'll say the following:
Hi This is Al; Al Lowe.
Well, hello Sonny Bonds. I don't know how you got me --must have been a bad connection. But since you sound like a potential customer, let me tell you about a new game out.
I just finished a great game called Leisure Suit Larry Goes Looking for Love in Several Wrong Places (LL2 for short).
You'll love becoming Larry Laffer, who's a little bit like all of us - a jerk, a nerd, and a loser.
But you can help Larry improve his self-esteem by finding the girl of his dreams.
So how does it sound?
Well go to the nearest software store and buy a copy - the funniest and funnest game I've ever played - and I'm sure you'll like it just as much as I do.
If this sounds like a promo, it is. But then why else did you call me?
Please note though, that Leisure Suit Larry is NOT, I repeat NOT, based on my own personal experience.
I gotta go now. I'm working on my new game "Leisure Suit Larry III featuring Polyester Patty."
Oh, and by the way, "Have a nice day".
You can also call Sierra's BBS line (which tells that BBS is so popular that all 16 lines are busy): (209) 683-4463
One of the directory's of the computer in homicide office is called Sierra. Access it to see files for King's Quest 1 through 4, Silpheed, Manhunter, Thexder, Gold Rush, Mother Goose, Space Quest 1 through 3, and Leisure Suit Larry 1 and 2. Selecting any of the titles will give a short description of the selected game.
At Cotton Cove look at the fence by the phone booth to notice kids have carved their initials in it. Type "LOOK INITIALS" to read them. the first of each pair of initials are initials of the game developers: J.S. is Jerome Shaw (programmer), B.H. is Bob (Robert) Heitman (programmer), B.F. is Bob Fischbach (programmer), C.C. is Cheryl Cornelius (animator and backgrounds), and J.W. is of course designer Jim Walls.
In the game's resource file, there is a reference to Jim Walls and Police Quest 2 in text040, which refers to the jungle maze on the island after Larry escapes the cruise ship. The text reads: "You discover Jim Walls testing Police Quest II. Jim! You were supposed to be on vacation."
Unfortunately we have not yet been able to trigger this Easter Egg. If you know the command that triggers it, please let us know!
You'll find a bunch of Sierra employees in the PD's computer system: Jon Bock, Jane Cardinal, Jeff Crowe, Mark Crowe, Carlos Escobar, Frank Ferrell, Desi Hartman, Jane Jensen and more.
