A prototype of the unreleased '''''Linking Leroy Visits LEGOLAND''''' for the Commodore 64.

==Notes==
* Developed by warez/demoscene group [[FairLight]]
** Programming: Pontus "Bacchus" Berg, Magnus "Harlekin" Nyman
** Graphics: Kalle "Ogami" Shew
* Originally part of the ''Legoland 2'' demo release, which featured a number of smaller demos including ''Linking Leroy''
* The game and demo were Lego-themed due to Berg knowing someone who worked at Lego's Swedish branch, who sent the group free Lego merchandise
* Developed as a pitch to The Lego Group, hoping that they would endorse the game. Cancelled due to a failure to secure endorsement and FairLight eventually losing connections with the company. A brief attempt to resume development using reskinned non-Lego graphics was attempted by Nyman in 1996, but nothing came out of it
** If the game was officially released, it would have been the very first that used a Lego license

* This prototype is based on a different level and has an added intro, giving it a title screen and crediting its release to "Divine"
* The player character moves considerably faster than the previous prototype
* Some enemy graphics display incorrectly
* Release has an intro

Linking Leroy Visits LEGOLAND (prototype A)

Ringtail Raider: a lot of completely wrong information here, correcting to as best as I know the story to be. Also removing Rob Hubbard's credit since it just uses some old music he released years before; Emil "Red Devil" Helldin was intended to compose for the full game. fixing capitalisation of Fairlight to the most common one; hoping this doesn't break anything. I don't know who Divine is but there's no proof they're the developers or connected to FairLight at all, just that they released the Space level demo
