A dramatic, choice-driven interactive narrative where your decisions shape your path through the treacherous entertainment industry's golden age.

What players say

Players praise the acting and branching story, but many dislike that advancing the plot requires sacrificing a specific character. The main story feels short and most endings besides the 'canon' one are weak. Performance bugs cause repeated freezes for some. Fans of the developer's earlier Mandate of Heaven generally find this one weaker.
