About Desperate Housewives: The Game

The game begins when a family moves to Wisteria Lane: a successful doctor working at the Fairview Medical Center, a wife with a forgotten past after a jogging accident, and their son. In the game, the player takes on the role of the wife, and is able to customise her and build relationships with other characters. Edie Britt first introduces the wife to Wisteria Lane and visits Bree Van de Kamp, who invites her to gossip at her house along with Susan Mayer, Lynette Scavo and Gabrielle Solis. A pair of brothers then visit the player's house: Daniel Fox, a famous designer and his twin brother Frank Fox, who installs an Internet service in the player's computer. The player's character then progresses through episodes, completing tasks that range from gardening and cooking for player's family, to discovering the secrets of the neighborhood.

The player must battle off a love rival to her husband – his secretary Jackie Marlen who stops at no cost to get what she wants – and the cranky neighbor, Etta Davenport. She must also deal with the antics of her unruly 14-year-old son and the people around him. Other residents are not as nice as they seem when a private investigator, Erik Larsen, shows up in town alongside a shady businessman, Vincent Corsetti, who seems to have ulterior motives. In the end, their secrets are aired to the public and a desperate decision is made in a hostage situation.

The game features four possible endings. The player can decide to run away with Erik Larsen or Vincent Corsetti, or remain married to her husband. A fourth ending allows the player to shoot all three men.

      I had this error a few minutes ago but somehow fixed it. Do you have Daemon Tools downloaded? Make sure you open the “disc 1” and “disc 2” files in Daemon to mount them. It took me through the installation process after that, I got them both installed fine, but now when I try to run the game I get an error message- “please install the original disc instead of a backup.” Running as administrator and Windows XP! Anyone have a solution?

    Finally got past all of the issues people have listed but the game opens for one second and then closes.

    Can anyone suggest options to fix this?

    What program do you guys use to mount your discs? I think my game wont start because of the second step (I’m unable to run the setup in compatibility with service pack 3, I’m using daemon tools lite) I do everything else correctly but the game just flashes for a second and then shuts down 🙁
