Hello, and welcome to AdVenture Capitalist!
This guide will lead you through what I believe to be the best way to maximise profits.

Thank You!
Note: This is an outdated guide made a long while ago, I am currently working on an update to it as I have recently got back into playing it.
What is AdVenture Capitalist?
AdVenture Capitalist is a game made by Kongregate and Hyper Hippo for Apple, Android and of course, Steam.
It is a game about monopolising and earning huge amounts of money.
You start off with a single lemonade stand and with profits from that you can start larger buisinesses (Lemonade Stands, New-Paper Deliveries, Car Washes, Pizza Deliverys, Donut Shops, Shrimp Boats, Movie Theatres, Banks and Oil Rigs) and buy more buisinessess and even leave for new planets and start events!
You can also spend money on managers to run your buisinesses for you! Aswell as buying upgrades to increase profits from each buisiness.
When you get enough money you can earn angel investors, they will increase your profits depending on how many you have.
Starting Your AdVenture!
When you begin AdVenture Capitalist on earth you only have one lemonade stand. When you click on the picture next to the number of profits it will begin a countdown. When this countdown finishes you will gain profits!
With your profits you can buy another buisiness to earn profits from, at the beginning you can either buy another lemonade stand or a news-paper delivery service, my advice is to buy another lemonade stand, this is because one buisiness is easier to manage than two!
After a while you should have accumulated a few lemonade stands and around $1,000. By then you should have an orange circle next to the ‘Managers’ tab, Click this and it will take you to the manager menu where you can buy managers to run your buisinesses for you, there is a different manager for each type of buisiness that you can earn.
Once you have bought the lemonade stands manager you should then buy the news-paper delivery service, rinse and repeat until you have all of the left side of the buisinesses, then do it again on the right!
What are Upgrades and what do they do?
There are three types of upgrades that you can earn.
One type are bought upgrades, these upgrades are bought in exchange for currency upgrade your profits. These usually cost a hefty sum so I wouldn’t consider buying one until after 20-30 mins of play.
The second type of upgrades cannot be bought, they are unlocked whenyou reach certain milestones, the next milestones that you can unlock are listed in the ‘unlocks’ tab.
The third and final type of upgrade is bought by sacrificing Angel Investors (AI for short). I will talk about this in more detail in a different chapter.
What are Angel Investors and what do they do?
Angel Investors (or AIs) are a concept that I have not seen in many games; you accumulate these when you earn certain amounts of money (I believe that he first one that you earn is found at 44Billion). These Angel Investors will add 2% to your profit each (multiple investors add to your current profit; One AI will take you to 102% Profit, Two will take you to 104%, Three is 106%, and so on).
These profit boosters will only take effect when you reset your game, to do this go into the ‘Investors’ tab and click the ‘Sell Shares and Restart’ button. But don’t worry! You can only lose AIs if you buy something with them from the ‘Angel Upgrades’ tab in the ‘Upgrades’ menu.
One of the best things to do is use the aforementioned method to gain upwards of 33 billion AIs, then once you have bought all of the managers that cost AIs you can go to the ‘Angel Investor Upgrades’ tab and click on the ‘Quick Buy’ button, this will make the game spend your AIs to buy every ‘safe’ upgrade. What this means is that it will buy the upgrades that are at most two less than your current order of magnitude or an even easier explanation a maximum of one hundreth of your current amount of angels; for example if you had 100,000,000,000 AIs then it will buy all of the upgrades up until 1,000,000,000 AIs at the most. Among other things this can increase the percentage of profits that your AIs will provide for you.
It is usually best to re-start when you have 100-150 AIs, then next time double the number (So get a total of 450 AIs) then double that ect although if you find that this method isn’t working then the circle next to the “investors” tab will light up when you have a decent collection of them.
You can also increase the effectiveness of your angel investors, these upgrades can be found on both the ‘Angel Upgrades’ and the ‘Cash Upgrades’ tabs and are essential to maximise those golden notes that you can keep in your pocket!
Things to note
When playing AdVenture capitalist be sure not to just upgrade one thing, remember to try to distribute your upgrades, or just click the to left tag until it says ‘Buy Max’ and go from most expensive to least expensive buying everything that you can.
Also there is a stats page, click on the picture on the top left of the screen and it will pull up the ‘Swag and Stats’ page and will tell you the kind of stuff that you have achieved!
You should also aim to complete the missions on the ‘Unlocks’ tab as they can be useful to speed up your pofits!
When you get into the mid game area of at least 300 of everything the prices that you would expect are put into reverse! So Lemonade stands are the cheapest (as usual), but then its Oil Rigs, Banks and so on and so forth until the start of the item list. Making Newspapers the most expensive overall, however, they are also the best to upgrade, this is because the acheivements that you earn from the Newspaper Deliveries usually increase the profits of other buisinesses. They are also really good because at 1000 and 2000 they get ‘Newspaper Deliveries x77777’ which is a huge increase that will keep the Newspaper Deliveries at the top of your profits leaderboard!
Also there are other guides that will tell you how to unlock everything in the background on the ‘Swag and Stats’ page, there are also guides telling you how many zeros there are in different multiples of $1,000 up until a googol.They are useful!
The Moon!
The moon is an uninhabited hell that none have conquered. Until you! You may not be running around the craters blasting alien scum to smithereens but you can sure as heck profit from it! New businesses include: “Moon Shoes”, “Gravity Booths”, “Payday Clones”, “Moon Express”, “Oxygen Bar”, “Helium-3 Bar” and others, this may look different but it is just the same, only a few tweaks had been made
