Megastar: Rock Band Manager

Take a broke garage band from grimy pub back rooms to sold-out stadiums — one week, one decision at a time.

MEGASTAR is a deep band-management strategy game and a loving remake of the 1989 cult classic ROCKSTAR. Every week you choose one move: write songs, hit the studio, shoot a video, play a gig, book a tour, work the press... or party hard and pray it works out. Then the week plays out, the charts update, and 200 rival acts fight you for every position.

📀 Record singles and albums, chase Gold and Platinum, watch your back catalog earn royalties
🚌 Book tours from pub circuits to stadiums, stop by stop, with sell-outs, reviews and disasters
💼 Sign record deals with Dodgy Sam — advances, recoupment, label satisfaction, and deadlines that bite
🎨 Customize your band with painted character art — over a million looks across hair, outfits, colors, instruments, accessories and facial hair
🏆 Trophy cabinet, career eras, a cross-career Hall of Fame, and a full retrospective when the lights go down
🏁 Weekly Challenge — everyone plays the same band with the same luck; share your 7-character code and dare a friend to beat your exact career
