Hollywood is a creative writing game released in 1995 by Theatrix Interactive for Windows and Macintosh.
Gameplay Users input text and can watch the characters read it. The game features a choice of 24 scenes and multiple cartoon animal characters.
Hollywood features ten cartoon characters: Larry, a yellow hippie dog. Sid, a purple anteater in a blue business suit. Tiffany, a glamorous orange dog. Artie, a nerdy-looking alligator. Charlotte, a policewoman fox. Chuck, a palm tree in a flower shirt and lei. Billie, A purple dog with glasses and pink hair. JJ, a cool dog with a backwards baseball cap. Bev, a fat pink cat with blue hair in a green jacket and knee highs. Lucille, a pig with curly blonde hair and a red jacket.
Users may change the voices, names, and jobs/interests of the characters.
When Hollywood and Hollywood High were installed on the same computer, the two could be combined by using a key received by calling Theatrix after launching the "Unlock Hollywood" program; however, since the developer is now defunct, this feature is no longer available.
Reception Entertainment Weekly gave the game an A−.
Hollywood won the 1996 Codie award for Best Home Creativity Software Program.
