For the 1-player mode in 'Famous' I created a randomized achievement "pyramid". Serving the same function as the Promo Track in the normal game, you claim milestones on the lower levels in order to access the ones above. But you'll have to plan your route
When you buy a Merch card, it comes with a certain number of "boxes" that you can start selling during the game to eventually turn a profit. Stock up on the "Autographed Shower Curtains", the "Band-Shaped Vitamins", or the lucrative "Comfy Unflattering T-
Each Week your Vans move closer to their booked Venues. You can add "Crowd" dice, and even flip them over after you roll them at the Gig. Will you sell out Coco's Cabaret?
I have cut out more than 1,000 cards with scissors as we keep updating the art and gameplay of Famous. I hope it's worth the effort!

Overview

Now available Electriclute.com

You are a dreamer - with a fire in your heart and a melody in your head. Posters obscure your bedroom walls, and vinyl records cover the floor. But you have a plan to complement that dream. With the local studio booked a mere 12 weeks from now, you’ll have to hustle...

'Famous: Stage I' is a theme-first strategy adventure for 1-4 players. Every element of the game makes thematic sense - as you spend your precious Hours managing your Band’s personnel, bookings, services, songwriting, rehearsal, equipment, supporters, and promotion. If you spend your resources wisely, seize opportunities at the right moments, and keep an eye on the big picture, you will become the most famous player at the table!

Prepare your Band over twelve rounds (“Weeks”) by collecting the best Song cards, upgrading your Musicians’ Skill, earning Cash at Gigs and with Merch, pursuing rewarding Prospects, hiring powerful Services, and achieving your Musicians’ individual Personality goals. And although some of it will derive from this main stage of the game, approximately 75% your Fame (the game’s Victory Points) will come from the end-game scoring “Finale” - wherein your well-laid plans will finally pay off!
