Game Overview

Hollywood Hijinx is one of those classic text adventures where you’re thrown into a ridiculous but weirdly charming scenario. You play as Hildegarde’s nephew, racing against the clock to dig up ten cheesy movie props—like something out of a lost B-movie—before dawn hits. The whole thing feels like stumbling through a haunted studio lot after hours.

Typing commands like "open coffin" or "exhibit poster" actually gets you somewhere, though the real challenge is figuring out which objects matter. There’s a maze (of course there is) and hidden passages that make you feel like you’re uncovering secrets in an old Hollywood backlot. It’s frustrating in that way only vintage text adventures can be, but when you finally snag a prop, it’s weirdly satisfying.

If you’ve got the patience for parser-based adventures and a soft spot for campy horror tropes, this one’s a fun little time capsule.
