Leisure Suit Larry 6: Shape Up or Slip Out! (1993)
Leisure Suit Larry 6: Shape Up or Slip Out! is a 1993 point-and-click video game made by Sierra Entertainment.
Larry Laffer wins a weekend at La Costa Lotta, a swanky spa resort, after stumbling onto a TV game show called Stallions. Single again and undeterred, he sets about charming the guests and staff scattered across the resort's pools, salons, and gyms. Al Lowe's sixth Leisure Suit Larry keeps the point-and-click formula while dressing it up with a health-club setting and one running joke after another. The comedy is warm and cartoonish, built on Larry's stubborn optimism and the polite disasters it invites. An easy, breezy adventure that never takes itself seriously.

A few thoughts on Leisure Suit Larry 6: Shape Up or Slip Out!
Comedy and clever puzzles pair well, and later games ran with the idea. Portal 2 builds sharp jokes into every test chamber, and Undertale hides a warm, funny heart under its retro surface. Neither shares Larry's spa-resort raunch, but both prove that a game can make you laugh while it makes you think.
Funny games bursting with personality
Larry 6 turns a spa resort into a playground of running gags and polite disasters. If you want games that make you laugh, Portal and Portal 2 wrap dark comedy around brain-bending puzzles, Undertale flips every RPG convention into a joke or a gut-punch, and Hades makes even dying feel charming and funny.
