![]() Luckily if it does get overbearing, there are options to have a staff member automatically do something like vocal sessions, dance sessions, and scout for advertising. While it is true that there are several things you do have to worry about in the day-to-day operations, it wasn’t as bad as I had initially thought when I started the game. The gameplay itself is not to overly difficult either. You also do not have the option of flirting with any idol that is under the age of 18. We do want to note that during our current playtime of 13 hours we have NOT scene anything that would make it worth of an Adults Only tag. However, it is worth noting that you do have the option to flirt and possibly date the idols you manage. Most if it is socializing to get to know them, asking their ambitions, or to spy on other members. You are able to create relationships with these idols. While this is considered acceptable in Western culture, the idol scene is notorious for having a strict “no dating” policy in its home region of Asia.īefore we go any further, we do feel like we need to address something that could be controversial and might explain part of the “Adults Only” title it received on Steam. You can even allow your idols to have relationships. Depending on your response in handling the situation, you can lose fans, gain scandal points, or no effect. For example, you could have an idol take an image with a random fan who then turns and goes on social media stating they are a couple. This means how their outfits will look while performing concerts, to public relations. Not only will you have to have them perform shows, you will also have to handle their public image. To say that this game is fairly accurate in how an actually talent agency would run an idol group is an understatement. This means hiring staff for your office, casting girls for your idol group, train their skills, and grow their fanbase. This will see you go through a tutorial showing you all the things you will have to do in order to run your empire. This means that you are now the boss of a model talent agency. ![]() Interestingly, everyone who worked for him left the company shortly before you joined and now you are the only one who is currently employed by him. The beginning of the game sees you walking into a studio ran by a benefactory named Fujimoto. Examples of these include NiziU, Momoiro Clover Z, Babymetal, and AKB48. While there are Idol boy groups such as Exile or BTS, they are mostly known for being young girls ranging anywhere from 12-25. Idol groups are a type of entertainer marketed for image, attractiveness, and personality in Japanese pop culture with many of these idols having backgrounds in acting, dancing, or modeling. ![]() For those who don’t, let me give you a simple rundown. If you clicked on this it’s likely you already know what an Idol group is. This might explain why when I found out there was an upcoming game called Idol Manager where you could essentially manage an idol group that you could create from scratch, I found it to be intriguing. Maybe this is because there is absolutely no way that a music company would ever devote the amount of time and effort into them, or perhaps some of them come across as very likeable people on the surface. Something that I’m a little ashamed to say is that I find kind of fascinating are Idol groups.
