CSP Kim Kardashian Hollywood

Language 

1)The objective of playing the Kim Kardashian Hollywood game is to go from being unlisted/Z list to a A list.

2)An A list celebrity is a celebrity who is known by a lot of people, they are recognised easily by most people.

3)To download the game all you need to do is to go onto the app store, type the game in and than lastly you press download.

4)The narrative of the Kim Kardashian game is that the avatar is a z list who has to get to a list by dating celebrities, going to concerts and also doing modelling with the guidance of Kim Kardashian.
The game is set in Hollywood.

5)The character you play as is a avatar who you can customise their look. The characters you can interact with are Kim, Khloe, Kendal, Kourtney, Kylie, Kris etc.

Audience 

1) I think the intended audience in the Kim Kardashian game is 10 to 18 year old's, this is because teenagers are more engaged with anything to do with celebrities than most elders.

2) One of the audience pleasures for the Kim Kardashian game is diversion, the audience wants to go away from their normal life style and see what its like to be a celebrity by playing this game. Another is personal relationships, the audience may be big fans of the Kardashians so they may want to see what it would be like to be friends with Kim Kardashian or dating a celebrity. Also personal identity is a another of their pleasures. This is because they may want to be a celebrity in real life, date a celebrity or be close friends with the Kardashians. Lastly they may find surveillance enjoyable as well although not as much as the rest. One reason is that the audience might want  to know what Kim Kardashian acts like or see through the perspective of a celebrities life.

3)I think the game may be addictive to some as the game gives you the life of an A list celebrity giving the audience a fantasy that maybe they could become a huge celebrity themselves. Also they used Kim Kardashian as the title which will attract many consumers to the product.

4)One reason James Liu thinks that the Kim kardashian game is successful is because of the brands name, "Kim Kardashian" which will attract her fans and other people who recognise the name, so they would probably become intrigued with a game named after her. Another reason that he thinks the Kim Kardashian game is successful is because of the world they built in the game, the world is distinctive but also tied in with the real world which  also makes the fantasy of being a celebrity more believable.

5)People keep coming back to the game because of many things, one reason is that new things will be added to the game, like cosmetics or new events for them to get specific items which you can only get if you were their at that specific time. Another reason is that their isn't really an end to the game which makes it more different compared to a lot of games today, this is because even when your in the A list their are still people more famous so the game makes you strive to get to the top.

Representations

1) The representation of women is that are powerful and charming as in the game they can get away with things just by flirting, also they can be seen as a sex object because the females bodies are over exaggerated.

2)In the game ethnicity is shown a lot through the game and you can see a lot of different kinds of people but when it comes to gender the game does show men but not as much as women.

3)The game reinforces stereotypes because it makes women focus on their looks and the only job you can get in the game is modelling. The game subverts stereotypes because it makes it seem like anyone can become a celebrity with guidance and practice.

4)The game suggests that in our modern day society anyone who is in close contact or is helped by a celebrity has a chance to become more famous with dedication and that anyone can become famous as well with certain career choices.

5)Someone may criticise the life of a celebrity because they portray them as the perfect person and a little bit narcissistic as the game makes do various things just to get more followers so you can become more known in the world and reach NO.1 in the A list.

Industries

1)Kim kardashian Hollywood is free.

2)The game makes money through micro transactions like energy and 3 types of subscriptions (Gold, Silver and bronze)

3)The subscriptions available are Gold:49.99 USD Silver:19.99 USD and Bronze: 4.99 USD.
