The fans of ‘Big Brother’ will soon join the online simulation of a television reality competition show. The show will have virtual housemates trying to survive in the game and avoid being kicked out, only if the player has the thing.
Big Brother is a reality competition TV franchise created by John de Mol Jr. and subsequently syndicated internationally. The show’s players or contestants are called “House Guests” or “housemates” who live together in the same house that is isolated from the outside world. The show’s title is inspired by Big Brother of the novel of George Orwell titled Nineteen Eighty-Four. All the housemates are continuously monitored during the stay by live TV cameras with personal microphones. Every week one voted out until one remains and wins the cash prize.
According to the reports of 21 September 2019, there have been over 448 seasons of Big Brothers in around 54 franchise regions and countries. The show in the English language is referred to by its initials “BB.” The show in Spanish-language is named as Gran Hermano (GH). At an interval, housemates nominate their fellow housemates to evict them out. The contestants with the maximum number of votes are then nominated for elimination. The audience has the opportunity to vote for the nominated contestant they wish to save or evict. Some of the recent episodes include the additional method of voting through social media or smartphones. Sometimes, the rules may vary; in some special episodes, two contestants might be eliminated if no one is voted out.
The game version of the show titled, Big Brother: The Game is all set to release on 15 October on Google Play, Apple Application Store, and at Big Brother.game. Anyone can join the game anywhere with some life-changing prize to grab the world’s massively multiplayer online reality game. With the gameplay, the EA’s long-running franchise “The Sims,” Big Brother: The Game, the players can participate as virtual roommates and can experience the life of a Big Brother contestant. The contestant makes a strategic choice to remain in the house, and the last one stays wins.
Although it is uncertain how people will engage with the game in this current situation of COVID-19, the game has two modes, one is for the Housemates, and another is for Spectator. The game can be downloaded for free, and Spectator can use it for free as well. Whereas, the Housemates in the competition need to spend $4.99. Players use a token to get into the house. So if the player receives eviction without progressing, you can start in two other homes. And if the player wins, then he/she automatically advances to the next house, and there is no way to pay to progress.
Big Brother: The Game is developed by 9th Impact through a partnership with Banijay, which this summer acquired Endemol Shine Group, owner of the “Big Brother” franchise. Julie Chen hosts the show, and it is the 22nd season on CBS. The first show of Big Brother premiered in the Netherlands in 1999. There are now 480 versions of the format across 62 markets, featuring over 28,000 episodes. Around 7,000 housemates worldwide have spent over 35,000 days in Big Brother house with 5000 live eliminations. The 9th Impact, based in Galway, Ireland, specialized in developing games inspired by TV shows. Big Brother mobile games will be available on both Android and iOS devices later this year.
The above is all about the upcoming latest game Big Brother. I hope this article is informative for you.
