Reception

Computer Gaming WorldШаблон:'s reviewer in April 1994 said that despite Hollywood MogulШаблон:'s "crude visual lookШаблон:Nbsp... I have found myself spending dozens of hours as a Hollywood bigwig rather than playing dozens of more expensive and graphically sexy games". Despite the lack of limited or award season-oriented releases, he concluded that it "is a fascinating exercise for the detail-oriented gamer" preferring statistics over action or visuals.[1] The magazine ranked Hollywood Mogul as one of the top three strategy games of all time in the magazine's 20th anniversary issue.Шаблон:Cn
