“Make Money While Playing” Cultivates Virtual Musk
Have you ever imagined what it would be like to become the founder of Tesla and SpaceX? Recently, a Telegram game called “Make Money While Playing” allows players to cultivate a virtual Elon Musk. Players can increase their in-game assets through clicking and strategic gameplay, and exchange them for airdropped tokens in the future.
Games of the “Make Money While Playing” genre have gained immense popularity. For instance, the hamster game “Hamster Kombat” attracted over 200 million users within three months of its release.
Now, the virtual Musk cultivation game “Musk Empire” has amassed over 3 million players, and its official Telegram channel has garnered over 1 million subscriptions.

Diverse Gameplay in Musk Empire
In the game, players can earn in-game money by clicking, but they must also rely on upgrading Musk’s skills and traits to increase their passive income per hour and accumulate money faster.
The skills and traits in Musk Empire are highly user-friendly. They include upgrades for sleep, nutrition, exercise, and mental acuity, as well as various options for personal and social skills, such as critical thinking, empathy, and philanthropy.
These options are just the tip of the iceberg. There are also various categories for upgrading the office, including space, software, equipment, entertainment, and more, ensuring a continuous increase in passive income per hour. Musk Empire’s game mechanics are highly user-friendly. For example, after upgrading the “sleep level” of virtual Musk to level 2, players can unlock upgrades for the empathy attribute, which aligns with the real-life condition that sleep can impact one’s psychological state.
In addition to upgrading skills, traits, and the office, Musk Empire also features a “trading” function that allows players to make investments. The investment options are categorized into low-risk, medium-risk, and high-risk products. Low-risk investment products include oil, diamonds, limited edition watches, and fine wines, while game development, AI, and electric car factories fall under the medium-risk investment category.
Interestingly, aerospace companies and blockchain projects are classified as high-risk investments in Musk Empire. Players can either earn double or lose all their assets, mirroring real-world market conditions.
Since players cultivate a Musk who owns multiple companies, negotiation skills are crucial. Musk Empire even includes a player-versus-player mechanism, allowing players to negotiate specific amounts of business contracts with other users. The winner receives money. The negotiation outcome is influenced by conditions such as the player’s negotiation strategy (categorized as aggressive, flexible, or defensive) and the level of negotiation skills.
Could the “Invite Friends” Quest Hinder Progress?
Although the gameplay in Musk Empire is diverse and ever-changing, Decrypt, an international media outlet, found during a trial period that the game may encounter obstacles that require players to invite a large number of friends to make progress. This issue also occurred with players of the hamster game “Hamster Kombat,” leading the game’s developers to announce that they would reduce such requirements.
Therefore, if you do not want to disturb your Telegram friends or contacts by inviting them to play, you may feel restricted in the middle to later stages of Musk Empire due to the requirement of inviting friends.
Nevertheless, the key point of this game is the ability to “make money.” The Musk Empire team has announced on their official Telegram channel that they will issue tokens and distribute airdrops on the TON blockchain.
“Passive income per hour,” “total amount of in-game money,” and “number of invited friends” are the three criteria that will affect the distribution of tokens.
Whether Musk Empire will continue to break records and attract hundreds of millions of users like Hamster Kombat remains to be seen. It is definitely a market trend worth following.
