“Reality TV thirst-person shooter” The Crush House will launch for PC via Steam on August 9, publisher Devolver Digital and developer Nerial announced. A demo is available now.
Here is an overview of the game, via Devolver Digital:
Created by United Kingdom-based developer Nerial (Reigns) The Crush House is THE reality TV sensation of 1999, and it has a new producer: you! Playing as new hire Jae, take your camera into the show’s iconic Malibu mansion and keep viewers glued to their screens by filming all the drama, romance, and tension that erupts. But fail to keep your audience entertained and you may suffer a fate worse than death: cancellation.
Choose between twelve eccentric personalities and find your four-person cast for each season’s run. Mix and match conflicting personalities or complementary attractions and watch as tensions run and sparks fly. Catch the best stuff on camera and watch your ratings soar.
Everyone with a TV watches The Crush House, from Foodies and Divorced Dads to Butt Guys and… Pharologists? With dozens of micro-audiences to keep entertained, you’ll have to be strategic to capture them all. You can’t please all the people all of the time, but you’ll have to try.
But there’s more to The Crush House than meets the eye, and a sinister mystery is waiting to be uncovered. Jae can explore the mansion at night when the show goes off-air, engaging in forbidden conversations with the cast to figure out the many dark and twisted secrets of The Crush House.
