Egos. Money. Blockbusters. Welcome to Hollywood.
The Movies™ is a “life simulation” game that enables players to build and control their own Hollywood motion picture studio. Players create unique movies, choosing everything from the script, cast, crew, lighting and sound to the marketing, the money and the sequel. These movies can be altered or exported and saved to be e-mailed and viewed anywhere. Through strategy and skill, players build their studios into entertainment empires by making hit movies, researching and introducing the newest cinematic technologies and nurturing the biggest stars.
Conceptualized by renowned developer Peter Molyneux and created by Lionhead Studios™, The Movies is taking life simulation to a whole new arena and is set to be a groundbreaking smash hit.
