Build a band.
Climb the charts.
The Rockstar Game is a free band management sim. A game you play in your browser. You write songs, release singles, EPs and albums, tour fifteen countries and climb the charts against real players in one world that never resets. I first launched it in 2001 and rebuilt it from scratch in 2026.
On the charts tonight.

How it works.
One real day is one game week. Every night at 11:30pm UK time the charts are worked out, the sales are counted and the world moves on, whether you've played that day or not.
Fifteen countries
Each has its own audience and its own charts. You start at home and buy your way into the rest, one at a time.
Twenty genres
Each one sells differently in each country. For example, K-Pop does best in South Korea and country in the US, so your music will have success in some countries more than others.
Promotion
Music videos with directors, radio, billboards and PR firms, plus the odd tabloid scandal. Every campaign shows you what it got you. All publicity is good publicity... mostly.
Rivalries
Declare a rival and every night you go head to head on a best of three: records sold, chart position and popularity. Win a few in a row and the whole feed hears about it.
A world that keeps moving
Charts and sales update every night. There's a feed with hype and achievements, The Rundown of how your night went, and an email if someone knocks you off #1.
Write, record, tour
Write songs, hire the right producer for your genre, release singles, EPs and albums, and tour venues from sweaty back rooms to sold-out stadiums.
