Rock the stage and Rule the Strip! In Hair Band, you're an upstart 80’s glam metal band vying for Hollywood’s next record deal. But to get it, you'll need to convince the label you're the next big thing - get awesome, get fans, perfect your show, and complete your demo to sign on the dotted line. Each round, you’ll place your dice-as-rockers around Hollywood to write, rehearse, promote, gig, and party all night. But watch out! Musicians can be a reckless and unruly bunch. So, you’ll need to choose wisely to steer clear of drama that can derail your ambitions. The first band to complete 3 of the 4 record label requirements gets the deal and wins the game. Hair Band is a dynamic dice placement, engine-building, and resource management game.
