Popcorn Popstars

Popcorn Popstars is a rhythm autobattler set in a blockbuster movie battlefield. You build a squad of three trope-powered heroes and tap drums in time to fuel their energy, defeat henchmen and win over the crowd.

Keep the beat

Each fight scene depends on your rhythm: tapping the drums in perfect tempo builds your squad’s energy. Every henchman you defeat earns cheers, which give you Hype coins.

Cast and customize your team

Spend Hype coins on posters, merch and lunchboxes to recruit stars and improve your team’s synergy. Limited-edition merch cards expand heroes’ abilities, letting you try new roles and character dynamics. For example, King Arthur and a Red Sentai hero can make a powerful duo, or a chivalrous knight can become a marksman.

Each run is a new casting call where you can change your trio, revisit familiar heroes and experiment with different synergies. No hero is fixed in one role, and each run lets you select one unit as the Protagonist, giving that hero extra focus and power. Any unit can take the role, but there is only one Protagonist in each movie.

Spotlight attacks

Your other heroes can also have their moment with spotlight attacks: cinematic bursts of power that let a chosen hero take over the scene. Time these attacks to turn the tide, interrupt enemy plans or perform for the crowd.
