Kollywood: The Game is a premium adventure game from KollywoodGameStudios. It is an interactive visual novel experience featuring stop-motion footage to help portray its characters and convey its story. It has comedic quick-time action events that take inspiration from movies in Tamil Cinema, a sub-category of Indian films made in the Tamil language.

Of satire and parodies

Kollywood: The Game is a parody game that tells the bizarre adventures of Baasha who falls asleep on his couch while watching Tamil movies and gets transported into the world of Tamil Cinema. He must go through the story and scene of the film in order to get back home. The gameplay revolves around Quick-time Events (QTE) with button presses or holds to perform.

If you're unsuccessful with these events, a Fail Scene will play out and you will have to redo the sequence all over again from your last saved checkpoint. All voiced scenes are in native Tamil but there are English subtitles for non-speakers. A full playthrough only lasts 15 to 20 minutes, though, so expect a very short experience.

For fans of Tamil cinema

Kollywood: The Game is a quirky parody game that fans of Tamil Cinema will like and find humorous as it plays on various movie tropes within the sub-category of films. Despite being very short, it is still worth playing and experiencing yourself if you're into these types of games and themes.
