    Terribly dull. I don't know many people who want to BE Hugh Hefner. I would love to be in Hugh Hefner's position, however. At its best, this game is like a management simulation with bikini-clad bimbos. At its best, it's a weak attempt at seeing nude cyber-chicks. If you want more nudity, and more fun, just buy the Sims 2 and download a nudity texture. At least you won';t need to waste hours and hours for a payoff.… Expand

    When I first encountered this game I was a little bit tired of the Simms and the fact of having naked chicks and been able to manage the Playboy empire from Hef's shoes seduced me at first, then I become unsatisfied because it was more than the same. The experience as a whole is lame. Not Recommended.

    Suffers from a dire lack of sex appeal. It fails to grab the attention of Sims fanatics while failing to seduce the average gamer. The business aspect is the most entertaining part of the game, if only because it lets you do something besides try and bed a clone army of big-breasted bunnies.

    What starts off so promising at first glance ends up being a pretty shallow experience. It seems everyone's heart was in the right place -- if only the game could have followed them there.

    Despite the bacchanalian context, this Sims-style strategy game comes off as cold and mechanical, capturing none of the devil-may-care attitude you'd expect and casting Hef's idyllic lifestyle as a hollow grind established purely for the sake of selling more magazines.
