Different From The Norm
IDOLM@STER: SideM is a game that revolves around collecting idol cards and training them to form strong idol units. It features the recruitment of soon-to-be idols at 315 Production and the idols within the unit Jupiter. The gameplay is the same as the previous IDOLM@STER games like Cinderella Girls and Million Live. However, unlike its predecessors which are about female idols, SideM features an all-male cast. Furthermore, the player becomes the female idols’ producer in the traditional IDOLM@STER games while in SideM, the player becomes a producer for the all-male cast. The main theme of the game is the job change. All of the idols have previous jobs but for some reason, they've decided to change careers and become an idol. It is now up to you, the player, to act as their producer and help them achieve their dreams. There are 46 voiced idols which are divided into 15 units.
