I'm a fast reader. And a top idol producer*!

Anyway I think unless you are a strong Neptune fan and want to watch the various characters do (highly customizable) idol type performances, or can't wait or have zero faith in a localization, you probably want to hold off since there's a lot of text and that's a huge part of a game like this.

 

I'm not an idol game fan (tried Idolmaster but fell asleep, literarly), not a Neptune fan. But this game left me puzzled.

Basically, how would you judge the gameplay? What the gameplay consist of, exactly?


Various training to increase idol stats, publicity actions to increase fan share, vacation to keep stress down, etc. When you go to actual live performances you control camera options and special stage effects to woo viewers. The main goal is to get your chosen idol to #1 by beating MOB48 (lol AKB) and the rest of the characters. Obviously there's a lot of events that can trigger along the way for each character. I don't think I even triggered half the events for just one character (Neptune) with a single playthrough... You can also choose to team up with other characters and that will change the group dynamic. Luckily stats and event completion carry over.

I guess what I mean to say is, you need to enjoy visual novel type games to truly get the most enjoyment out of it. I ended up playing it the entire night...
