## What is vinylempire?

Build the greatest record label in history — one hit at a time.

Vinyl Empire is a laid-back idle tycoon where you sign artists, release tracks, and watch the royalties roll in. Your label earns money even while you're away, so every time you come back there's a fresh pile of cash waiting and a new upgrade to chase.

GROW YOUR LABEL
- Sign procedurally generated artists across genres, each with their own star potential
- Release tracks that climb the charts and pay out passive royalties
- Hire producers, managers, and tour agents to automate signing, releasing, and income
- Every upgrade compounds — there's always a satisfying next purchase

PRESTIGE & GO BIGGER
- Sell your label to prestige into a bigger one with permanent multipliers
- Restart smarter and faster, stacking bonuses run after run

HEAR YOUR PROGRESS
- A generative studio soundtrack adds new layers as your roster grows — your success is something you actually hear, not just a number

PLAYS ITSELF, REWARDS YOU
- Collect offline earnings when you return
- Optional rewarded videos to double offline income or grab an instant cash boost
- Prefer a clean run? A one-time Remove Ads unlock turns them off and auto-collects for you

No account, no internet required to play — your empire is saved right on your device. Start small, think big, and build a Vinyl Empire.
