7 itemsAbout the Game
The world of K-pop is more than it seems. It is not just concerts, chanting, and collecting merchandise. It is also about all the passion and effort made by the fans in their rooms, without the rest of the world knowing.
Be My Star invites you to get inside the life of Camilla, a fan who is doing her utmost to support her favorite group, in a reality in which a single vote can be the difference between failure or success. You can create and customize your own group, at the start of the game. Then you’ll be ready to control Camilla’s actions to make sure she manages her time adequately, balancing her everyday life and the activities to support her group.
Create your favorite K-pop group
You can play the game multiple times with different K-pop groups. For each of those groups you can customize their appearance, names, and lineups. But you can also play with an original group created specifically for the game called NOX.3, and get to know them.
Support your group through the in-game social media
Interacting on social media, streaming videos, reacting to articles, and voting are activities that have an impact on your group’s popularity. The fanbase will guide you through the different stages of the comeback: from the announcement to the final live-voting, and they will give you rules and strategies to ensure victory.
Balance your everyday activities
Behind each fan there is a person with responsibilities. Each comeback is a different stage in Camilla’s life, starting in her final year of secondary school, continuing through college, and ending with her as an adult balancing a job and her passion.
The game reacts to your choices
Your decisions shape the game and change Camilla’s life—both in the interactions with the fandom and her family and friends. Connect with them and discover meaningful stories!
Story told through comic-style panels
In Be My Star, each comeback unfolds over six days, divided into three moments per day as you race against the clock. Between those moments, the story comes alive through hand-drawn panels, told from an intimate and deeply personal point of view.
