Hollywood Hustle: A Prop Collector Simulator announced for PC
From Maximum Entertainment and Woodpile.
Publisher Maximum Entertainment and developer Woodpile have announced Hollywood Hustle: A Prop Collector Simulator, a cozy loot-driven scavenger game that lets players dig through the abandoned trash of Hollywood backlots and uncover hidden treasures. It will launch for PC via Steam in 2027.
Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
About
A physics-driven cleanup simulator on an abandoned Hollywood studio. Fantasy epics, sitcoms, science-fiction blockbusters: their props ended up here. Sort it all, ship boxed orders to film sets and beyond, sell the rest, and resurrect the old animatronics to help.
Welcome to the Studio
Sam’s grandfather ran this film studio his whole life. Then the world switched to short videos, the crews moved out, and the pavilions slowly filled up with everything the productions left behind. Somebody has to dig the place out. That somebody is Sam, armed with an app on his smartphone, full of orders and a very long to-do list…
Fantasy, Sitcoms, Science-Fiction, and More
The studio shot everything in its heyday, and each pavilion holds the leftover props of a specific genre: fantasy props in one, sitcom furniture in the next, science-fiction hardware further down. Every pavilion has its own leftovers to dig through.
Real Junk, Real Orders
Every can, mug and cardboard box here is a real object, and the whole cleanup runs on physics and pure optimism. Productions post their orders straight to your app: a fantasy shoot is missing its swords, a sitcom wants its couch back, and some clients are not from the movie business at all. Hunt the right props in the piles, pack them into boxes, tape them shut and hand them over at the mail station.
Wake the Animatronics
You are not alone out here. A helper robot picks up where you leave off, and the old production animatronics still remember how to move. Dig them out, wind them up and point them at the mess. There is no cheaper labor than a literal skeleton crew.
Key Features
- Physics on everything: every item in the studio is a real object.
- Six pavilions, six worlds: fantasy, sitcom, science-fiction, and more waiting to be uncovered.
- Jobs come from everywhere: film sets need their props back, and some clients aren’t even in the movie business.
- Full packing kit: tape, box cutter, marker. These orders need to look professional.
- A helper robot and animatronics you can put back to work.
- A talent tree of upgrades and new abilities.
