Would You Play This Gossip Girl Game?

Just when you thought that life doesn’t imitate art, or at least soapy dramas, Gossip Girl’s fictional cast of Upper East Siders won’t be the only ones throwing some serious venom in their social circles.
Thanks to Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, fans can now play “Gossip Girl: Social Climbing,” a free game on Facebook. Just like in the hit show, gamers earn, struggle, and sometimes claw their way up the social ladder by gaining points through being at the right place at the right time—and of course, dressing to stand out in the crowd. Events copy plots of beloved past episodes and characters’ favorite pastimes, including the infamous Assassin Party, Sweetheart Ball, Fashion Week, and club openings. Ultimately, players can be noticed by Gossip Girl herself.
But, don’t stop peering out of your designers specs just yet. If we’ve learned anything from watching Blair, Serena, Chuck and co., it’s that social games aren’t always so glamorous for the losers. What do you think—would you play this game? Or will it just perpetuate social pretension with the message it’s sending?
