Idol Manager

Idol Manager puts you in charge of a small talent agency as it grows. You hire and train young pop stars, decide who to fire or promote, and reprimand idols when things go wrong. Their personal lives affect the business: their achievements can become commercial successes, while emotional meltdowns and PR crises can cause financial trouble.

Manage your agency

You handle crises such as gossip, vandalism, stalkers and threats against the agency or its idols. You also manage relationships within the group, dealing with cliques, feuds and bullying. To grow your fanbase, you vary your tactics and appeal to different demographics.

The business operates in a world of gossip magazines, super fans and rival groups seeking the latest scandal. Some are willing to play dirty to undermine your agency.

Build your business

You produce singles, hold concerts, organize large TV events and arrange overseas tours to turn your group's popularity into revenue. You develop the agency from simple offices and dance rooms, where you produce content and train idols, into a business with a cafe and theater that provide a steady stream of revenue. You can hire and train staff to manage logistics and keep the agency running.

Substories

Chains of events and visual novel segments reveal substories, many triggered by your play style. Your decisions can send each one down different paths, often with serious consequences for your playthrough.
