LSL wasn't a "SoftPorn ripoff" as such -- it was definitely inspired by the
game, and in fact, the Leisure Suit Larry Collection Series (boxed set of
the first 6 games in all versions) INCLUDES the PC version of SoftPorn.
Al Lowe (the person behind the LSL series, originally a school teacher -
would you believe that!) has fully acknowledged that LSL was inspired by
SoftPorn.

... Leisure Suit Larry 1, too.
Hey! I still have LSL1 1.0 - 5.25" original disks, not a copy (fished it
out of a pile of debris left by a departing college student a number of
years ago)
It's... um... a *classic*!
Ah, but do you have "SoftPorn" the game that LSL-1 was a rip off of? I
played that on my Apple II eons ago (I just saw it on one of the game
archive links that passed thru this list recently in anyone wanted to DL
it)
