In what's sure to be heralded as another sign of the impending apocalypse, actress/professional train wreck Lindsay Lohan now has her own mobile game-- "The Price of Fame" is now out for Android and iOS.
Lohan's title is both a tongue-in-cheek look at celebrity culture and far less glamorous than another popular celebrity fantasy game, Glu Mobile's hit "Kim Kardashian Hollywood."
Like Kardashian's game, Lohan's mobile title sees the actress steering a new Hollywood celebrity along the path to ultimate fame. Players can purchase new outfits and accessories for their celebrity avatar and earn coins by building a following.
According to Tech Crunch, Lohan's game is more tactless and more ridiculous than Kardashian's. Where Kim K's game promises "a virtual world complete with exclusive clubs, upscale boutiques, and luxury homes," Lindsay's lets players "start a phony rap beef, buy a private peninsula, get butt implants, fight in an elevator and give your baby botox."
While Kardashian offers to whisk virtual celebrities to destinations like Miami and New York, Lohan's game will let players become famous underwater or on their own private planet.
"It's all part of getting famous in Hollywood," the game's description reads. "And why not punch a paparazzi while you are at it? Don't worry, you have a hot shot team of lawyers to get you out of trouble. And they probably deserved it."
Yes, just what the world needs: another game that glorifies and rewards bad behavior. I don't know if it's just me or what, but something about this game feels a thousand times worse and/or more cheapening than anything that the "Grand Theft Auto's" of the world serve up on a yearly basis. As I said, maybe it's just me...but I don't think so.
Lindsay Lohan's "The Price of Fame" is available as a free download from Apple's iTunes App Store and the Google Play Store. Check out the trailer below:
