Playboy: The Mansion puts players in the role of Hugh Hefner, the
founder of Playboy Magazine and Playboy Enterprises, referred to in the game as 'Hef'. The aim of the game
is to build the famed Playboy Empire from scratch, starting from a
humble magazine to celebrity endorsements to home entertainment to
Internet websites to merchandise. The player can mold
the famed Playboy Mansion to their own needs and wants, and has the
option of experiencing the infamous PlayboyPlaymate parties in locations
such as the Grotto and the Clubhouse. Hef, as well as all other
characters in the game, can build three types of relationships with
other characters: casual, business, and romantic. Each month, the player
has to print an issue of the magazine. To do that the player needs a
cover shoot, a centerfold, an essay from a celebrity, interview
with a celebrity, a pictorial about a subject and an article about a
subject. The player must hire photographers and writers to create each
issue. All the characters have interests, such as sports and music, and writers on those topics will produce higher-quality articles. In the game, the player is the photographer during photo shoots. The game contains many sexual references, including sexual relationships.
