'Help, I'm Addicted to Kim Kardashian's Game'

Signs this vapid app is ruining your life

Kim Kardashian’s game is starting to take its toll. People are crying for help on anonymous social networks like Whisper to confess their addiction to this mindless app.

The Kim Kardashian: Hollywood app, made by Glue Mobile, is making almost $2 million per week in virtual sales. And with advertising it could be a $200 million annual moneymaker. It has spent most of its time since launch among the top 5 downloaded games.

The app is simple: You just tap your way from a virtual nobody to a virtual A-List celebrity (still an actual nobody) by going to photo shoots, shopping and climbing the superficial rungs of Hollywood by going on dates and to parties.
