Reviews for "LARRY: Doug-Out"
Passes the time, can get difficult.
Its a great game up until around day 20+, although the game seemed to continue on and on without purpose it was fun and occupying up until the difficulty ramped up around day 20+. After day 20 it seemed that Doug was an uberly powerful demigod or something. How much ale can one man drink before he dies of ale poisoning?! I mean seriously, at that point it took up to 10 hits with the most powerful weapon available just to kill him. It seemed that most of the game after that point was just trying to kill doug, and then recovering the costs with ale sales. I made to day 31 when I realized that I didn't want to play anymore. Because of doug profits were only about 5 dollars a day, if I only refilled two barrels. The ale hand was way too fast, a blur at that point, and the hand seemed a bit innacurate. There were times I would hit it exactly in the center and it still would give me 0$.
However, even with the cons it is kind of an endless game, and I realize it could go on forever, getting infinitely harder, so I 'm not going to score it badly. Overall I give this game a 8 out of 10-- for being a fun time consuming game for quite some time. It was (hours?) before it got too hard and I had to quit. I enjoyed myself. Great game.
It was good, but doug...
Doug made the game way too hard. And on a laptop, it was basically impossible. I had to spend all my money on refilling and never upgraded anything.
Cool!
I loved the game, it's just Doug was a hassle. He was too tough to take out all the time; and later, he was way too fast.
It would be good but...
I find that about day 13 thing start to move too fast like doug and the hand that points out how much beer you're giving. Another problem is doug takes like 10 hits and weapon upgrades don't seem to do anything. I got to the hammer and it still seemed like he took 10-15 hits per doug attack before running away crying. McSweeney is slow to respond to your clicks so you could waste the entire time just trying to kill doug. Finally what I think is the biggest problem is you loose all your money in between days so you can't save up for better ale and the $1000 weapon. All this adds up to a frustrating experience that would be other wise fun. All I can hope is that the final weapon kills doug... permanently.
