Kim Kardashian\u2019s Hollywood mobile app shuts down after raking in hundreds of millions GluAfter 10 years of playtime, having raked in over $200 million, Kim Kardashian\u2019s mobile game, \u201cKim Kardashian: Hollywood\u201d is shutting down. Kim Kardashian launched her mobile game back in 2014 to huge success as the app quickly made millions for the star, but now after almost a decade, it\u2019s a curtain call for \u201cKim Kardashian: Hollywood\u201d. The mobile game app allowed users to roleplay as a character on their journey to becoming a celebrity, including dating appropriate A-listers and taking jobs like modeling contracts. Players could also purchase an in-game currency, known as K-stars, to help their gameplay, like buying outfits or speeding up the wait time between actions. The app was a huge success for Kardashian, who pocketed around $45 million of the $200 million USD it made in its first year. \u201cI\u2019m so grateful from the bottom of my heart to everyone who has loved and played Kim Kardashian: Hollywood in the past 10 years,\u201d Kim said, speaking to TMZ about the app shutting down. The social media star went on to say she now felt it was time to \u201cfocus\u201d her \u201cenergy into other passions.\u201d Fans of the game reacted to the news on Reddit. \u201cThis is actually so beyond upsetting,\u201d said one, adding \u201cThere is no other game like this.\u201d \u201cI\u2019ve been playing for 10 years and I\u2019m gonna miss all of my outfits I\u2019ve earned,\u201d said another. But some fans were also frustrated by the news, \u201cI\u2019m actually sad and want a refund,\u201d one player said. \u201cSame! I spent way too much on this game,\u201d another agreed, prompting someone to chime in with: \u201cIt was way too easy to spend $3.\u201d The mobile app has been removed from both Apple and Android app stores already. For current players, the game officially shuts down on April 8 this year, marking almost a decade of serving up Hollywood dreams to fans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
