Vivendi Games received great appreciation from gamers everywhere with the "Surviving High School" franchise. Because of this, it was just about time for the launch of a new game based on the old concept, but with several slight differences.

Surviving Hollywood is just an expansion of the gaming concept found in the previous game released by Vivendi. It is based on the glamor of the movie entertainment industry and allows players to play the role of a new star. All the steps towards fame and celebrity are met during the game as to make ascension as real as possible.

Players have to make decision based on specific situations that the Hollywood life creates. Evolution is the word which best represents the concept of this mobile game. Players start off as waiters and have to work their way up to the star status. In order to do this, they take part in auditions, go to clubbing parties and also manage to keep their jobs in order to survive.

One interesting aspect about this game is that Surviving Hollywood periodically updates on the Internet. This means that the player will be provided with new situations in which they have to make choices.

"Every week, Surviving Hollywood will bring a new dose of life in the celebrity capital of the world to aspiring 'A-listers' around the country, allowing them to try their hand at what it takes to become a star", said Paul Maglione, president of Vivendi Games Mobile.

"In developing this title we were committed to delivering a truly engaging and enjoyable experience that outshines even the brightest Hollywood star", said liver Miao, general manager of Vivendi Games Mobile's Centerscore Studio. Moreover, it "takes our popular blend of mobile-friendly gameplay and fresh episodic content to the next level", he further commented.

Surviving Hollywood will be available for purchase in North America starting with July this year.
