Press release:
Wiesbaden, Germany – April 5th 2023.
The Wiesbaden-based (Germany) indie games publisher/developer Assemble Entertainment and Riga-based (Latvia) indie games developer Odyssey Studios, are today very proud and happy to announce that their Peter Molyneux’s “The Movies” inspired business management sim “Moviehouse” (which puts players in the director’s chair of a popular production studio), is now available for PC (Windows a d MAC) via Steam & GOG.

A classic premise brought to the modern day with incredible detail, Moviehouse – The Film Studio Tycoon lets you write, produce, and direct every aspect of whatever Hollywood blockbuster you can think of. You can pick up the game right now on Steam.

Starting from humble beginnings, the goal of Moviehouse – The Film Studio Tycoon is to create a film worthy of being shown in every theater across the world. Simple in theory, yet in-depth and challenging in execution. No one becomes a world renowned director overnight, so you’ll need to start with smaller projects and indie films. If successful, you’ll garner more attention, more praise, and most importantly, more money. More money means bigger productions, bigger productions mean more resources, which in turn leads to better movies.

Those that have worked on a major production know one thing: the devil is in the details. So in keeping with that idea, Moviehouse – The Film Studio Tycoon gives you absolute control over every last minute detail of your productions. Any seemingly small detail is yours to tweak to your liking. Budget on casting calls? Adjustable. Background shrubbery? Freely placeable. Early showing placements? Up to your keen eye for planning. The entirety of your set is at your fingertips.
