The biggest triple A movie studio has bought the rights to countless movie franchises—and ran out of budget because of it.
With money too tight to hire real stars, there’s a good chance you will pass the audition to play the protagonist in their upcoming crossover movie.
Act, fight, and improvise your way through a chaotic production where your performance determines the movie’s success... and the investors’ happiness.

During the recording of your movie, you will have to choose how to handle scenarios:

Develop your personality; When things happen, your personality can change—for better or worse.
Encounter shops; Use zeny to buy new weapons, equipment or usable items.
New ability after combat; Choose a new ability and an associated stat point. The abilities available for your role are based on your theme, equipped weapons or acquired affinity.
Performance rating; Your final judgment as a movie star. Raise it by following the director's personal tasks that highlight your character. Or steal the show with unforgettable improvisation.
Engage in turn-based combat!
Row-based battlefield; Each team has 3 rows, whereas the front line will defend the back rows against melee attacks and frontal projectiles. Positioning matters—use it to your advantage

Turn-based mechanics; Each turn you can choose a main (or basic) ability optionally with a defensive ability or item. When ready, all characters will perform their actions based on the character speed. All defensive abilities will be executed first in order to heal allies or protect against incoming attacks.
