LARRY: Pup Run Medal Walkthrough

Posted by DiMono - November 10th, 2010


New LARRY game. They're always fun, and in this one all the medals work right out of the box!

Medals (7 for 75 points):

Barely Broken (5) - Smash through a brick wall and survive! Basically, hit it at full speed and you'll punch a hole in it rather than dying. You cannot get this medal while riding Doug

Crushing Victory (5) - Break 20 hurdles in a single run. Not a single game-load, a single game. As long as you always keep enough beer in you to have a reasonable speed, you can get this one pretty easily by chasing it.

Doug Mount (10) - Find and ride Doug, the town drunk! He appears randomly on the track, just run into him and your dog will turn into him and you'll run at full speed. Try to keep collecting beer! Also, obstacles don't hurt you when you're riding Doug, because he's far too drunk to feel pain.

Fresh and Fruity (10) - Eat a super rare Pineapple! And they are quite rare: I've played the game about 15 times and seen 3 of them total. I've ridden the wild Doug at least twice that frequently.

Hungry Muncher (10) - Eat 50 pieces of fruit in a single run. Pretty straightforward, this one.

Super Dog (10) - Ride Pup at full speed, uninterrupted for 10 seconds. They key is to keep collecting beer, as that will keep your speed up. Also you can get this medal while riding Doug.

Closest Shave Ever (25) - Jump over 5 spinning blades in a single Run. Yep.

Gameplay:
As straightforward as it gets, collect the good things and dodge or jump over the bad things. Easier on a slow computer, as you'll get more reaction time. At higher speeds you have less time to react to obstacles, so it may be worthwhile to keep your speed down once the spinning blades are more prominent. However, going fast and collecting beer while you do it is how you rack up points, so if you're playing because you enjoy it, faster is better.

Keep your eye out for the pineapple and for Doug, and chase specific medals on each run when you're after ones like Closest Shave Ever or Crushing Victory. Fruit always shows up in an order in which you can get them all, but it sometimes shows up inside bear traps, so your delicious nutrition will come at the expense of health. And finally, when jumping an obstacle, make sure that you press the spacebar before it actually reaches you, and try not to jump over beer.

Aside from that, just let her rip!

I don't exactly understand how to get Super Dog. I'm pretty sure I've had him at full speed for over 10 seconds without hitting any obstacles. Is there something I'm missing?

Nevermind, I got it now.

I think I got it simply because I got Doug again. I don't know. But I got it.

3 in 15 is not quite rare, unless you were being sarcastic...

Not 3 in 15, 3 in 15 x however many fruits spawned in those games. More like 3 in 400.
