This is NOT a stand alone game, Rock Hard 1977 Base Game is required.
With "Ear Candy," it's time for your songs to take center stage! The first expansion for "Rock Hard: 1977" (which requires the base game to play) lets you use your Life Experiences to compose singles in various styles. Promoting these singles will get them played on the radio and propel you up the charts, giving you an additional way to gain Fame. The expansion also includes two new characters, two new managers, two new types of Candy, and additional cards for each deck. Do you have what it takes to be number one?
Designed by the legendary Jackie Fox (of the 70s rock band The Runaways) and illustrated by Jennifer Giner, Rock Hard: 1977 allows for games for 2 to 5 players, ages 14 and up, in sessions of 45 to 90 minutes. Through worker placement mechanics and events, players will take on the role of a rising rock star and compete to accumulate the most Fame points over several rounds.
Rock Hard: 1977 is played over a maximum of nine rounds, each representing a typical day in a month from 1977, from April to December. You win the game by accumulating the most Fame… And how do you score Fame? By increasing your reputation, your skills, and the quality of your songs; by earning production, performance, and publicity bonuses; by securing record deals and collecting royalties; by playing gigs; and by hanging out at the hottest nightclubs.
