Compute Capitalist
In development
One GPU in a garage. Build from there.
An idle tycoon game about the race to build more computing power. It's a bit of a send-up of the AI boom.
Android and iPhone
Not out yet. I'm still building it, so there's nothing to download. It's coming to Android and iPhone. Email me and I'll let you know when it is.
What it does
How it plays.
-
Buy and upgrade
Start at a soldering bench in a garage and work up to datacentres, power stations and further out than that. Buy one at a time, ten, a hundred or as many as you can afford.
-
Hire managers
Every business has a manager who runs it for you, so it keeps earning while the game is closed. You collect it when you come back.
-
Four sectors
Silicon Valley, a fusion power grid, an orbital frontier and a mind grid. Each one opens up when you've earned enough in the last.
-
Start again, faster
Sell up for angel investors and start over. Each one adds to your profits for good.
-
Plays offline
No account and no internet needed. Your save is on your phone, and you can copy it out as a save code.

- Nothing to buy.
- Adverts
- None.
The whole game is free, every sector and every upgrade. There is no energy bar, nothing to refill and no video to watch to carry on.
It plays offline and needs no account, so there is nothing to sign up to and nothing to lose.
The gold in the game is earned by playing. The shop and the sponsor clip you see in it are part of the game rather than real money, and the build has no advertising or payment code in it at all.
If that ever changes, this page and the privacy policy get rewritten before the build goes out.
Privacy and support
Your save stays on this phone. There's no account, and the game works with no internet at all. The full privacy policy says exactly what is kept and what is sent.
