Bitmaps? Bitmaps? We don’t need no stinking bitmaps!
This ASCII billboard is from Softporn Adventure (1981), the game that was the genesis of the Leisure Suit Larry series. Have there been any games remade more than this one?
LSL: Reloaded will be an HD re-imagining of a VGA remake of an EGA re-imagining of this text adventure. Or something like that. It gets pretty confusing.
While not the game that has been remade the most times in the world (I’m pretty sure something like Tetris or Pong takes that trophy) it surely is the adventure game that’s been remade the most. But hey, it gets better every time, so keep on remaking it every once in awhile
just for the record after Chuck Benton’s Softpron a few others had decided to create a graphic version, and to create a company to market it called ‘Brown Bag Software lead by Mr.Peter Oliphant they even got as far as to start with the product but Sierra On-Line liked the idea so much and was able to give LSLILOTLL before Brown Bag Software came anywhere where with their product

Yeah, I meant adventure games. Now that I think about it though, Colossal Cave Adventure was remade many more times than this game.
I would have thought that accolade would go to Myst or Broken Sword. Those games always rear their head somewhere every generation with tweaks here and there.
