Rock Band Simulator

Rock Band Simulator is a first-person rock band life sim set in a rough 1990s neighbourhood. You’re the lead guitarist. You’ve got two bandmates, barely any money, and seven days to make something of it.

Rehearse. Find better equipment. Get on stage. That’s the plan, anyway. You still need to pay for all of it, and the people offering work aren’t big on details.

At 21:00, you’ve still got a show.

Get your equipment together and play rhythm-based concerts. Choose what comes next, control the flow of the set, and decide when to call it a night.

A good gig builds your reputation. A bad one gives the guys something to argue about on the way home.

The amp’s fucked. Another one costs money. Time to find some work.

Collect cans. Take odd jobs. Try your luck at blackjack. You could spend the afternoon earning what you need, or convince yourself you’re one good hand away.

Someone always knows a quicker way to make money.

Meet the locals and take on jobs that get harder to explain the further you get into them. Sneak past cameras, get your hands dirty, and try to leave before anyone starts asking questions.

You probably should’ve asked a few yourself.

Have a drink. Get into an argument. Find out how many other people want to be involved.

Fight, block, and use whatever’s lying around. Between underground fights, gangsters, and the police, there are plenty of ways to lose the rest of your afternoon.

You need those hands for the concert.

Explore Ashport, a neighbourhood of bars, back rooms, garages, and people with something for you to do. Follow main quests, pick up side jobs, stumble into strange encounters, and deal with whoever’s waiting around the next corner.

When it all gets too much, head somewhere quiet.

See how that goes.

Evgen’s on bass. Diman’s on drums. You’ll need both of them in the same place, preferably conscious.

Between gigs and whatever happened on the way back, upgrade and customise your garage. Give the band a place worth coming home to.

Collect posters, take photos, and grow your in-game social media following. Fill the garage with things you’ve earned.

Some of them legally.

Forget health bars. Get used to the Adrenaline (ADR) System.

Hit harder in the sweet spot. Push too far and you’re going down. Beer, cigarettes, and other substances affect your condition, so pay attention to what you’re putting into yourself.

You’ve still got the rest of the day to get through.

Each day brings new quests, side jobs, random events, and mini-bosses. Your reputation grows, relationships change, and new opportunities turn up. Some might even help.

Where you end up depends on how you get through the week. There’s more than one ending waiting.

For now, find the guys. Get your gear.

You’ve still got a show at 21:00.

Have the breakdown after.
