Adventure game authored in Macromedia Director puts you in the role of an agent trying to scout and book one of 2 comics. Fail and you're booted to mini-games which you can beat to return to the main game. Gameplay consists mostly of exploring and clicking on people and items in the correct order. Hey babe, you've landed a gig as talent scout for late night hit "The Johnny K. Show". You can make your career by making a star. Hop in the limo and head for the Improv to find the hottest new comic in "The Biz". Go behind the scenes. Schmooze a little, booze a little, even cruise a little. Try to talk to the right people at the right time: not-so-humble owner Budd Friedman, designated drunk Angela the Agent, Trudy (hat check girl and aspiring hand model) and other assorted eccentrics. They're all ready to kiss your butt or stab you in the back. It's Hollywood, what did you expect? Be careful! Poor comic timing gets you flushed to Hell's Basement. You'll need all your smarts to conquer the Curse of the CD-ROM Hallways and get back up to the club. Can you keep your hands to yourself in the Gratuitous Sex Room, avoid a wrong turn on the Super Information Highway or beat Shoot The Heckler and make a comic's dream come true? With a lot of strategy and a little luck, a star will be born. No strategy and even less luck? We warned you. |
