The year is 1999, Y2K is looming, and reality TV is taking over our screens. But before Big Brother and Survivor, there was The Crush House. Fast forward to today, and it’s back—well, sort of. Thanks to the brilliant minds at Nerial and the always-quirky Devolver Digital, you can now relive (or live for the first time) the chaotic glory of The Crush House on PC via Steam.
You’ll step into the shoes of Jae, the camerawoman who’s just landed the gig of her dreams—filming the most scandalous reality show of the late ’90s. Your job? Capture every moment of drama, tension, and fiery romance inside the iconic Malibu mansion.
As the puppet master behind the scenes, you’ll need to pick your cast from a dozen eccentric contestants, each with their quirks and secrets. Will you mix oil and water to watch the sparks fly or craft a dream team of perfectly matched personalities? Either way, you’ll need to keep your audience glued to their screens or risk being cancelled faster than you can say “reality TV.”
While you’re busy capturing all the juicy footage, remember to squeeze in a few tasteful TV ads to keep the show’s budget afloat. Sure, you might lose a few die-hard fans during commercial breaks, but that extra cash will come in handy when it’s time to redecorate the mansion and stir the pot for the next season.
When the cameras stop rolling, and the lights go down, Jae gets to explore the mansion’s darker corners. Engage in secret conversations with the cast and uncover the twisted truths lurking beneath the surface of The Crush House. Because let’s face it—what’s reality TV without a bit of a conspiracy?
So, do you have what it takes to keep the ratings up and the drama flowing? The Crush House is waiting for you on Steam. Get ready to crush it.
