Snail Games' Subsidiary, Interactive Films, Unveils a New Relationship Simulation Game The Fame Game: Welcome to Hollywood
Narrative-led games with relationship mechanics have shown strong user retention particularly among players seeking personalized, emotionally interactive gameplay. The Fame Game: Welcome to Hollywood follows a story told from a male perspective, designed to resonate with a wide audience through branching narrative paths and high likelihood of replays driven by multiple possible endings.
According to Newzoo's 2024 Global Gamer Study , life and relationship simulation games have experienced a 40% year-over-year rise in player engagement, especially among the 18-34 demographic. Deloitte's 2023 Digital Media Trends report further highlights the shifting emotional landscape of modern players: 50% of Gen Z and Millennials report stronger emotional connections to fictional characters than to real people, and nearly one in three say games help fulfill their need for meaningful connection.
The project benefits from streamlined mechanics that allow for cost-effective development and rapid iteration, while preserving the game's emotional depth. Its accessible gameplay structure lowers the barrier to entry, making it approachable for gamers across experience levels – particularly for casual players or those new to narrative-focused games. This design philosophy supports a wider potential audience while minimizing production overhead.
The Fame Game: Welcome to Hollywood will launch exclusively on Steam, Wishlist now!

‘Fox & Friends Weekend' Celebrates Gutfeld's Fallon Interview as Start of a New Era: ‘Let's Just All Get Along'
'It seems like he's seeing what happened to Stephen Colbert ... people are exhausted of all the in-fighting,' Rachel Campos-Duffy says 'Fox & Friends Weekend' celebrated Greg Gutfeld's Thursday night appearance on 'The Tonight Show' as the potential start of a new era where everyone can get along. They did so on Saturday morning by lambasting other media outlets for accusing Jimmy Fallon of lobbing 'softball' questions at his fellow TV host. 'One person who's not falling for communism is Greg Gutfeld. He broke the late night barrier on Thursday night and went and took a visit to Jimmy Fallon,' Charlie Hurt said atop the Fox News segment. 'It worked and it was funny because it was two real people just sort of having a conversation and it wasn't any of this stupid ideological nonsense that a lot of the late night shows have gotten into.'

The show went on to display four headlines about the bipartisan NBC sit-down interview — from The Independent, The Daily Beast, Deadline and The Cut. 'It appears that the Left and the media wanted there to be some sort of battle. Like, Jimmy Fallon's going to attack him or Greg's going to attack Jimmy.' 'They were so disappointed,' Griff Jenkins agreed. 'That's why Gutfeld is the king of late night, because he understands what comedy was — funny stories, engaging.' 'It seems like he's seeing what happened to Stephen Colbert,' Campos-Duffy said, referencing the 'Late Show' cancellation. 'This moment, people are exhausted of all the in-fighting. And they're also seeing so many successes from Donald Trump and I think people just want to let it all go.' 'Greg Gutfeld is sort of like that perfect person, along with Jimmy, to sort of showcase that this is maybe a new era, 'Let's all just get along,'' she continued. 'Before 2016, before that very moment, the late night landscape wasn't as political. It was when Trump came in that it changed and became hyper-liberal,' Jenkins noted, to which Campos-Duffy concluded: 'Yep. There was a memo that went out.'

David Ellison Sets His Team: These Are the People Who Will Run the New Paramount
David Ellison has set his C-suite at Paramount Global. With Skydance's deal to acquire the media company set to close later this week, the mogul has officially named his senior leadership team at the company, the people who will run the new Paramount, which will have three segments: Studios, direct-to-consumer, and TV media. More from The Hollywood Reporter Paramount TV Studios Reborn Under Skydance, One Year After Shutting Down Paramount Streaming Chief Tom Ryan to Exit Amid Skydance Deal Close "Forever Grateful": Shari Redstone Signs Off As Paramount's Owner Ahead of Skydance Deal Close 'I'm thrilled to introduce our new executive leadership team — backed by deep industry experience, proven track records, and a shared commitment to excellence, this world-class team is uniquely equipped to rise to the occasion and deliver on our bold vision for a new Paramount,' Ellison said in a statement. 'Each member was chosen to align with our goals and with the intention to drive transformation. Together, we will foster an environment where creative and technical talent collaborate seamlessly, marrying leading technologies with powerful storytelling and artistic vision to unlock Paramount's full potential and help shape the future of our industry.' As previously announced, former NBCUniversal CEO Jeff Shell will be president of the new Paramount. But joining him will be Andy Gordon, who had been leading RedBird Capital's Los Angeles office, who will become COO of the company. RedBird, which is providing financial capital to support the Skydance deal, has also most recently employed Shell. As expected, current Paramount co-CEO George Cheeks, who has also been leading the CBS business, will remain with the company as chair of TV media, adding oversight of the company's cable TV channels. Cindy Holland, the former Netflix scripted TV chief, will lead new Paramount's streaming businesses, including Paramount+ and Pluto. Holland has been a Skydance advisor since last year. Jim Sterner will join from Amazon Entertainment to lead human resources. Stephanie Kyoko McKinnon will be general counsel, and Melissa Zukerman will be chief communications officer. Andrew Warren will continue as interim CFO of the company. Skydance chief content officer Dana Goldberg and former Sony Pictures exec Josh Greenstein will lead the new Paramount studio as co-chairs. Goldberg, a widely respected creative exec, will run the film studio in tandem with Greenstein, who worked with Ellison and Goldberg for years when running marketing for Paramount before departing for Sony, where he most recently served as co-president of the Motion Picture Group alongside Sanford Panitch. Greenstein and Goldberg will be replacing Brian Robbins, who was never expected to stay. It's an open secret that Greenstein wanted more power at Sony, but chances of that happening at Sony became a no-go when movie chief chairman Tom Rothman's contract was renewed earlier this year. At Paramount, Greenstein will have the dual title of vice chair of platforms, while Goldberg will have additional oversight of TV as chair of Paramount TV. Greenstein rose up through the Hollywood studio system on the marketing and distribution side of the aisle. But as co-president of Sony's Motion Picture Group — sources say his last day in that job was Aug. 1 — Greenstein gained oversight of the creative process as well. This has given him ammunition to fight against being cast as just a marketing guy. Shell, the incoming president, was most recently working with RedBird Capital, Skydance's financial partner in the Paramount takeover, and before that was the CEO of NBCUniversal. Shell was forced out of NBCUniversal in 2023 after acknowledging an inappropriate relationship with an employee at the company. Cheeks, the lone holdover from the former Paramount's office of the CEO, is an attorney by trade, and began his entertainment career as a lawyer and business affairs executive at Viacom. It was at NBCUniversal where he added more creative responsibilities, rising to co-chairman of entertainment, before joining Paramount in 2020 to lead CBS. Holland instantly lends streaming credibility to the company, having previously led English scripted TV at Netflix, before exiting in 2020. She has been advising Skydance since late last year, however her new role gives her formal oversight of Paramount's streaming businesses, a top priority for the company under Ellison.
