Kim Kardashian's character on the popular game app Kim Kardashian Hollywood has been honored by Time magazine.

The prestigious news outlet deemed the reality star's digital alter ago as the No. 2 most influential fictional character on a list of 15, which is topped by Queen Elsa from Disney's hit 2014 movie Frozen.

The Kardashian game, available for iPhone, Android and desktop computers, was released this past summer and has made an estimated $200 million, according to Time. It ranks as No. 11 on the Apple App Store's list of Top Grossing apps.

The user's goal is to become as famous as possible, with Kim's guidance, by taking part in photo shoots, walking runways, meeting with VIPs, acting in movies and TV shows (The Walking Dead even gets a little tribute), buying stylish clothes and lavish homes all over the world, going on dates, advancing romances and even getting married. The game is free to download and play, although users can spend money to buy more energy and advance quicker.

Recently, Kim's sisters Khloé Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian and even their "momager" Kris Jenner have made their debuts in the game.

The app is so popular that when it crashed for several hours back in July, before a series of planned upgrades, Twitter got bombarded with tweets from people all around the world complaining about it, spurring the hashtag #Fixthekardashian game to trend.

Others who made the cut on TIme's list include Hello Kitty (who's NOT a cat, in case you weren't aware), Game of Thrones' most reviled King Joffrey, Jennifer Lawrence's The Hunger Games character Katniss Everdeen and Chris Pratt's Guardians of the Galaxy character Star-Lord. Stephen Colbert's alter ego on his satirical Comedy Central show The Colbert Report is also on the list.

In July, he poked fun at the Kardashian app on his show.
