Vending Empire is a free incremental game that runs in your browser with nothing to install and no account to make. You start with one gumball machine and a single customer, and you finish with an orbital vending platform printing millions of dollars a second. It is an idle tycoon in the classic sense: the machines keep selling whether you are watching or not, and closing the tab does not cost you your empire.
The big button pays out instantly and builds Hype. Hype multiplies every dollar on the screen up to three times over, and it drains the moment you stop, so an active minute is worth far more than an idle one. Hire route drivers and they serve for you around the clock, though they never build Hype themselves.
Ten tiers of vending machine, from a gumball globe to a hot ramen tower to an orbital vendor. Every tenth, twenty fifth, fiftieth and hundredth copy of a machine doubles that machine's output for free, so buying wide is how the numbers really move. Buy x10, x100 or Buy Max when clicking one at a time gets silly.
Franchising is the prestige reset. You give up your cash, machines and upgrades in exchange for franchise points, and each point is a permanent +2% on everything you build afterwards. The right time to franchise is when the next machine costs more than an hour of income.
Yes. Your machines pay offline earnings at half rate for up to four hours away. The Empire Pass raises that to twenty four hours, doubles your income permanently and turns the ads off, for one payment of $4.99 with no subscription.
The whole game is free. The Empire Pass is an optional upgrade, and nothing in the game is locked behind it.
