Overview

About this game

Welcome to the internet where confidence matters more than competence.

Fake It Till You Make It puts you in the shoes of an aspiring online guru starting from absolutely nothing. No money. No followers. No morals.
Your goal is to become famous, rich, and influential by posting staged photos, attending cringe events, selling questionable products, and carefully managing public outrage before it destroys your career.

There is no honest path - only better excuses.

Fake It Till You Make It

Success doesn’t come from hard work, it comes from looking successful.

  • Take staged photos with luxury cars that aren’t yours

  • Dig through trash to find expensive-looking props

  • Post gym photos to fake discipline

  • Exploit charity for reputation damage control

Your followers don’t need the truth.
They need content.

Followers, Money, and Scam Heat

Your entire career is built on three numbers:

  • Followers - social power and influence

  • Money - access to events, regions, and bigger scams

  • Clout - your popularity between masses (not sure about it)

  • Scam Heat - how close you are to getting exposed

The more you scam, the richer you get.
The richer you get, the louder the backlash.

Build an Identity

There are no fixed classes - only personas you pretend to be:

  • Alpha - dominance, flexing, intimidation

  • Crypto - hype, speculation, fake innovation

  • Fitness - discipline, grind culture, body image

  • Sales - persuasion, confidence, empty promises

Every action shifts your identity.
Be everything at once and nothing authentically.

Events, Scams, and Public Humiliation

  • Attend podcasts and conferences to boost your reach

  • Sell courses, products, and crypto schemes

  • Watch YouTubers slowly destroy your reputation

  • Reduce backlash with perfectly timed "good deeds"

There’s no jail.
There’s no cancel button.
Just a slow, public collapse.

Progress Through a World That Reflects Your Ego

  • Start in a poor neighborhood with limited opportunities

  • Move to wealthier regions as your fame grows

  • Unlock yachts, gyms, elite scams, and premium hypocrisy

Your surroundings improve. Your ethics don’t.

Sooo...

The game doesn’t tell you what’s right or wrong.
It just asks one simple question:

How far are you willing to go for likes?
