This game is not only bad, but its packaging is also highly misleading. The packaging creates the impression that this is a game like the "Sims," where you play different characters and try to become famous. But, in reality, this is essentially a trivia game, and a second-rate one at that. The trivia questions are actually pretty hard, but it doesn't matter, since they begin repeating after five minutes or so.

In short, this game is a complete waste of your money. Avoid it at all costs.

A Very Bad Game

This is an incompetently executed video game, with obscure rules, many bugs, and ENORMOUS problems in translation. Contrary to another reviewer, it took me only about five minutes to discover this game is a (poor) translation of a game from Europe. Looking at the names of the people connected with it, I would guess it was made somewhere in Scandanavia. There's SOME humor value in the comically bad translations of the TV shows you will be producing, they really make no sense at all. However, the programmers made no effort to lip sync the animation and the soundtrack. The installation does not always refer to the program by the same name -- which I always take as a warning sign of sloppy programming. In the game itself, many of the pop-up message boxes appear on top of one another, obscuring important information. There are other bugs, and translation errors which made the game difficult to play, and quite tedious. I can't believe this game actually made it out of beta testing.

It only took me 20 minutes to figure out this game was made in Europe, not in the US. The "answers" to this trivia game are wrong a lot of times (Chewbacca is a Wookie, not an Ewok) and they use the International title of films instead of the US titles (what we called "12 Monkeys" they call "Army of the 12 Monkeys"), and when you are supposed to "correct news articles," don't correct spelling errors, or you'll get them "wrong".

After 30 minutes, I was just bored... it doesn't take long to memorize the answers to challenges in each category. I wish I'd researched this more before buying. Hopefully I can keep anyone else from making the same mistake.

All this game is is a trivia challenge. Wel...not really a challenge =P. You correct news and pick up items to get enough points to challenge the worker who is one step above you on the career ladder. Then when you challenge them, it's just a quiz game of 5 questions which, if you win, gets you to take their job. It goes on and on like that throughout the whole game

I had some fun with Airline Tycoon so I thought I might have some fun with this. The description on the box (and above) is VERY misleading. This game is just awful.
