The Apprentice TV Show Los Angeles game available May1
Legacy Interactive®, a leader in TV games, today announced the release of their television reality game -- The Apprentice Los Angeles. The game's release coincides with the finale of the hit television show's sixth season and is available at Legacy's popular game portal, www.legacygames.com. The Apprentice Los Angeles will be distributed by ValuSoft, a division of THQ Inc., and ship on May 1 to all major retailers for $19.95. It will also be sold via all major downloadable game portals, including Yahoo! Games, Big Fish Games and RealArcade.
The Apprentice Los Angeles showcases a twist on time and resource management games, with multiple environments requiring unique game strategies. Players learn to master skills, manage their time efficiently, make sure they have sufficient inventory, work with others and act quickly and confidently in the boardroom. Depending on how players perform in the main tasks, they may end up in the boardroom, where they must combine memory and strategy in order to avoid that infamous phrase: "You're Fired!" The opponents' performance is directly related to how well the player has performed in the rest of the game. Players "strut their stuff" in such iconic Los Angeles venues as an upscale hotel in Hollywood, a sushi bar downtown, a fancy Beverly Hills boutique and beach-front property in Santa Monica. The Apprentice Los Angeles stars the famous members of the Trump family -- Donald, Ivanka and Don Jr. -- as well as 12 of the most memorable contestants from the hit show.
