I mean, they both sell what the games are. If I didn't know what LSL3 contained (and for the purposes of this poll I am pretending I know nothing) I would assume its a crass sex comedy which objectifies women. From what i've been presented I wouldn't know or assume Passionate Patti was a playable character.
Like, LSL is in an ugly street caricature art style, but I kind of like that big swing. I think everyone looking lumpy and gross sells it as a sex comedy. Maybe its taking a swing so large and selling itself so well that it better filters out people who aren't interested...
I have much less to say about the KQ4 box, but I would choose it. The fantasy art is fairly generic, but decent, and better art than KQ6. I would rather play as a cool unicorn riding woman fighting vampires, than the game where it appears from the cover that my guy is leering over a lumpy bikini woman.
Voting for KQ4.

From a feminist point of view, I'd rather see a woman doing something adventureous than just hanging out in (of) her bikini. I vote for KQ 4.

Well, Larry DOES get that buff in the game.

LSL3 i guess

KQ4 is generic and boring.
I vote for LSL3

Voting for Larry 3.
Larry - unbothered. moisturized. happy. in my lane. focused. flourishing.
King Quest 4 - I don't know, it looks kind of muddy. Especially the unicorn. It's dirty and I find unicorns with black manes inherently wrong. It looks like a donkey with a carrot glued to its head. Also, the title has the exact opposite problem to Police Quest 2: it's barely legible.

Larry!

If you are comparing any box art against King's Quest that game will likely win. The KQ game boxes are poorly designed due to the margins that they use.

Guys, we are tied at 9-9 me thinks and time for voting this one is up. Next new vote tips it.

Okay, I choose Larry for at least trying something different.
