THE ECONOMY
Big dreams. Finite resources.
Every move has a cost. Understand the difference before you make your first decision.
Protect your creative fuel.
Energy is separate from AP. Produce, practice and other actions use it. Recover restores up to 40 energy for 1 AP; a week advance restores up to 20, capped at your maximum.
Invest. Do not just spend.
Credits fund promotion, studio upgrades and eligible business actions. They are fictional in-game resources, never cash, purchasable shares or withdrawable income.
Keep your studio sustainable.
Each successful week advance adds 65 credits before any studio upkeep. Mission rewards and eligible simulated release results can also grow your budget.
Four different kinds of progress. General Skill measures overall ability. Career XP drives your career progression. Eight musical competencies have their own XP and levels. Reputation and fans describe your fictional industry standing; none of these is interchangeable with AP or credits.
WEEKLY STRATEGY
Six AP. Make them matter.
Balance improving your craft, finishing music and building the audience for it.
01Read the situation02Spend AP intentionally03Advance & review
Practice
Build your general skill and develop your selected musical competency.
Produce
Move your demo forward and develop phase-related skills. Eligible studio bonuses can modify production progress and energy cost.
Promote
Invest in reputation and audience growth. It is not a guarantee of chart success.
Network
Build reputation, gain Career XP and seek opportunities. Opportunities are not guaranteed.
Recover
Restore up to 40 energy without exceeding your energy maximum.
Review Demo
A dedicated technical-review mission action, not an unrestricted weekly shortcut. Follow its eligibility checklist.
Make the next week count. Standard players can successfully advance up to twice per calendar day, resetting at midnight (Europe/Rome). Advance Week refills AP to 6, restores up to 20 energy and adds 65 gross credits before upkeep. It also processes eligible events, deadlines and world systems. Unused AP are not carried over.

Know your Mission Board. To Do contains available work and claimable rewards. Locked missions show unmet unlocks. Completed holds claimed missions. Use each card’s next step, target activity and checklist instead of guessing.
Evidence, not free rewards. An assessment itself grants no XP or credits. One compatible proof may help more than one mission, but each mission checks its own rules. Claim All collects only eligible rewards; already credited rewards are never paid again.

STRATEGIC SIMULATION
STRATEGIC SIMULATION
From artist to label founder.
A label is a separate business system in the authorized Studio Empire expansion, not the same thing as accepting an early demo offer.
- Reach Rising Artist or higher.
- Build at least 35 Skill and 50 Reputation.
- Have a qualifying settled release and at least one resolved event.
- Hold at least 250 credits before founding; founding costs 200.
These requirements are checked together. A label is not unlocked by paying the fee alone.

Scout fictional artists, evaluate fit and negotiate advances, royalty shares and release commitments.

Manage a roster and eligible release projects. Production costs and commitments compete with your own career budget.
Lead responsibly
Respond to label events, artist needs and contract changes. Relationship, reputation and the economics of each deal matter.

Actions spend AP and sometimes energy or credits. Negative memories may require genuine relationship repair.
Earn the right opportunity. Relationship milestones are 10, 25, 50, 75 and 90. Collaborations, remix commissions, signature work and alliances also check trust, artistic compatibility, reliability, resources, project history and cooldowns. A high relationship score alone is not enough.

CAREER STORYLINES · AUTHORIZED EXPANSION
Your choices have a memory.
The Rise of a Legend campaign adds narrative decisions to the career you are building.
RISE OF A LEGENDTHE NEXT CHAPTER
THE NEXT CHAPTER
IS A DECISION.
Your story is shaped by offers, deadlines, creative identity and relationships. The most expensive choice is not always the strongest one.
Meaningful choices
Inspect AP, energy, credit costs and consequences before confirming. Some scenes need progress, skills, trust or verified Academy evidence.
Deadlines & follow-ups
An offer can create a mission, a delivery deadline or a delayed outcome. Advancing a week can move these clocks forward.
A persistent history
Career Storylines and the Rise of a Legend campaign keep decisions and outcomes. Previously made choices are part of the saved career, not repeatable reward buttons.
PRESTIGE SYSTEMS · AUTHORIZED EXPANSION
A great career outlives a single hit.
Music Awards, Hall of Fame and Career Legacy recognize progress that has actually been earned.
12 GAME WEEKS / AWARD SEASONBuild a catalog.
Build a catalog.
Leave a legacy.
Awards seasons span 12 game weeks. The season closes when you successfully advance into the next one. Eligibility and prestige come from saved career and release evidence, not from repeatedly opening the awards page.
Music Awards
Qualify for categories such as Best Debut Release. Each category has its own nomination criteria, scoring and prestige rewards.
Hall of Fame
Recognize recorded achievements and career milestones. Your history is a record of what happened, not a source of automatic extra payments.
Career Legacy
Bring together the long-term impact of your career, catalog and achievements. Prestige matters beyond a single successful week.
NINE CAREER STAGES
From unknown to unforgettable.
Your journey grows with skill, reputation, audience and Career XP, not a single magic number.
Progress is multidimensional. New stages check the required combination of Skill, Reputation, Fanbase and Career XP. The Career Journey shows exact thresholds. A single strong stat cannot bypass the others, and already earned stage identities are preserved.
