Game Description

Awesome rock band sim!

In Kudos: Rock Legend, you are the star! Your job is to form a band and go from unknown to global superstars!

Select a band name and customize your Avatar with many different looks. Audition new band members for each instrument type and then write your own songs. With enough tracks - record albums, and find a publisher.

Manage your band members, upgrade instruments, performance light effects, and more! Book gigs for your band to perform for cash, listen to music or go see other band's gigs to get inspired. But don't forget to post flyers, and remember to bring enough T-Shirts.

When your band has grown you'll need roadies, transportation, food and better gear. Are you a rising star or will you burn out?

Getting Started Guide:

  1. Audition members for the band and choose a bass player, drummer, and lead guitarist
  2. Write 5 songs
  3. Once you have enough songs, rehearse them as a band
  4. Book a gig at the cheapest venue
  5. Post and pass out flyers to promote your show
  6. Practice your music skills a couple times to increase your band's musical ability
  7. Rest up before the show then play!
  8. After that, save money for new instruments, lighting, or whatever your band members suggest
  9. Get inspired by watching other bands or buying CDs and listening to them. Use your high inspiration levels to write new songs and replace low quality ones.
  10. Perform more shows and earn more money!

This games is one of the best simulation games to play. I, my self, pefrer to play Kudos Rock Ledgend on a day at the house. The graphics of the games is just outstanding. The way they have your band to watch other bands perform to learn new ideas for your songs,is something i enjoy. If i could i wound give this game all the stars in the world. This game is great in many ways!

In this game, you start out as a wannabe rocker with a bit of cash, then you have to hold rehearsals for band members and make sure they get along alright. Over time you get more money so you can buy more instruments, get new gigs, and make new songs. The song creator is really fun once you get used to it and eventually you get to be a superstar!

Great game! You start out as nothing and rise up to a mega stars. You sign contract, hand out and post banners. Rehearse and practice to get better. Overall fun game and I was mad when the download ended.

Kudos: Rock Star starts out a little slow, but it gets really exciting! I was so happy when my band played its first gig. You get to earn money, and you have to make real decisions like you would if you were in a real band. Definitely worth it!!!!!!!

Kudos Rock Legend is an amazing game. It might be hard getting used
to things and starting your band, but it is a very fun game. It gave me
the chance to live out my dream on a computer game. You start out as a
singer with some money and you have to hold auditions for your band.
You can get a drummer, a guitarist, a bass player, a keyboard player,
and a saxophone player. You can get various places to practice from a
garage to a recording studio. You also have to keep your band relaxed,
happy, and stress free. You can get many places to play at too. You can
go to the shop and buy new instruments for your band, rides to your
concerts, or merchandise to give out to your fans. Once again, this is an
amazing game and you should definitely try it.

I felt that this game was quite good compared to the original and I was upset when the trial period ran out. The minigames were a great touch and made it more exciting. I liked it but some parts seemed rather predictable.

its playable but could be better. if there is only music charts for songs and albums game would be great

32121 A slight improvement, Mar 10, 2008

by Eve (Chicago, IL USA)

...over the original Kudos, much more interactive and customizable and less repetitive. The songwriting mini-game is actually challenging and clever, though I can’t say the same for the band practice mini-game (ever played Simon?)

I still would not buy it, however, as nothing in the demo indicated that leveling and improvement in-game wouldn’t be the same slog as in the original. Like Kudos, Rock Legend seems to be about efficiency more than creativity: maximize your meters in the game time provided to "win." The only challenge is in balancing the divaesque demands of your obnoxious bandmates with your own agenda for stardom. Yawn. Dull in-game music, minimal avatar options and ho-hum graphics don’t help.

If the demo promised less predictable, more challenging gameplay and perhaps an improvement on the same two cliched Top 40 tracks and vacant-looking avatars, I’d certainly buy it. I played all the way through the original Kudos in hopes of some surprise, but I won’t do it again.

Kudos Rock Legend is based just like the original Kudos.Only with a little twist,you have to go on a path in becoming a rock star. You choose the players, how you rehearse, where you play, and more. You start as nothing but a small local band and start up the ranks to become famous. Buy from different stuff from inspiriting music to a full staff. I think this game was great so I gave it 5 stars, this game is mostly for people that like simulation games or if they liked the original Kudos.
