Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

The Guy Game is a 2004 adult video game developed by Topheavy Studios and published by Gathering for Windows, PlayStation 2, and Xbox. Presented in a trivia gameshow style, it allows up to four players to compete by completing multiple choice questions and minigames complemented by filmed live-action footage of young women in bikinis on spring break. Its development was led by the former Metroid Prime (2002) developer Jeff Spangenberg, who sought to create an interactive game with appeal to men inspired by the Girls Gone Wild series of pornographic videos. The objective of the game is for players to earn points, as well as accumulate bonus points for a meter, titled the Flash-O-Meter, that progressively removes censorship of footage of the women exposing their breasts. Upon release, The Guy Game was a commercial disappointment and received negative reviews, with critics critiquing its tastelessness, slow pace, and lack of content, although some praised it as a niche party title for a college-age audience. The Guy Game drew controversy when a participant filmed exposing her breasts sued the developer and publishers for breach of privacy and emotional distress, and revealed that she was a minor at the time of filming. Her lawsuit successfully obtained a temporary injunction against further distribution, after which Topheavy Studios ceased further sales. Due to the ESRB classification of The Guy Game as 'Mature' instead of 'Adults Only', authors, groups and legislators in the United States targeted it in efforts to restrict minors' access to explicit video games. The Guy Game has been retrospectively assessed as a controversial entry in an emergent genre of adult video games receiving a mainstream commercial release on consoles in the mid-2000s in line with other entries including Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude (2004) and Playboy: The Mansion (2005).
