## Description

The iDOLM@STER: Cinderella Girls is a social media/trading card game spin-off of The iDOLM@STER series. Rather than the raising and rhythm gameplay of the main
series, this game focuses on interacting with other players. Idols are
available as cards. All idols from 765 Production are available, including
Hibiki Ganaha and Takane Shijou. Later, in 2016, the three 876 Production
idols from Dearly StarS were added. There are also many new idols and four
Trainers, leading to a total of 203 characters, plus three more idols
exclusive to the Korean version of the game.

The player assumes the role of a producer from 346 Production. Idols are
represented by cards. Idols fall into one of three categories: Cute, Cool, or
Passion. Each idol has several different cards. Each individual card has a
rarity: Normal, Rare, and S Rare, and each rarity also has a plus version.
Statistics also exist for each idol: attack, defense, cost, and affection
rate.

There are several activities. Work is when the producer assigns an idol a job
and they do it. Jobs earn the player in-game money and fans, as well as
occasionally new idols and costumes, and may increase an idol’s affection
rate. Experience points can also be earned. Work uses up stamina, which
replenishes over time or from items. In Live Battles, the player plays against
another player. The leader of a unit goes against the other idol, and the
winner is determined by fan count. In Live Concerts, the player plays against
another player with an idol unit of up to five idols. This battle is
determined by attack and defense statistics. Winning these battles earns the
player rewards. Finally, there are Lessons and Special Training. Lessons are
used to improve an idol’s stats and level them up. Idols work with lesson
partners, but the lesson partners will disappear. Special Training occurs when
the player has more than one of an idol card, and combines those cards to make
a plus card. The new card has different artwork and improved statistics.
