About this game
Passionate Patti Does a Little Undercover Work! is (despite the number) the fourth game in Al Lowe's Leisure Suit Larry series.
The middle-aged would-be-womanizer Larry Laffer fell off a boat during a cruise and sustained amnesia, forgetting how he and his sweetheart Patti got separated, how Larry got a job in LA, how Patti got a job with the FBI, and what happened in (the never released) Larry 4 .

Now Larry and Patti are working independently on two cases that are connected to each other, even though the heroes aren't aware of that.
Larry's new bosses are involved in shady business, while Patti agrees to take a break from her career as a performing pianist and become an undercover agent.
Will the two be together ever again? Unlike the previous games with their text input, Larry 5 utilizes a graphical, icon-based interface.
The player uses verb commands ("Look", "Talk", "Use" etc.) to interact with the environment.
In a way not quite typical for Sierra's adventure games, it is impossible to "die" in Larry 5 , and the amount of "dead ends" (unwinnable situations) is greatly reduced.
The game is also less puzzle-oriented, allowing the player to proceed even if he/she fails to solve the required puzzle in some cases.
However, the player is awarded more points for finding the "right" solution.
As in the third game , both Larry and Patti are available as playable characters during different chapters of the story.
About PlayStation
The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.
Gamevaro tracks Overboard! (1997) for PlayStation with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Overboard! (1997) to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS1 release dates back to 1997.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Overboard! (1997), suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
