What is “Star Symphony”?

- Artists can create new characters that will be filtered by the team and voted on by the community to enter into the Gacha system in the upcoming seasons, earning a revenue share every time their character is Gacha-ed.
- Animators and story writers can contribute their time and work to completed quests listed by the team, while gamers and collectors serve as marketing advocates to reach out to more people.
- Players can participate in peer-to-peer trading, collect rare digital assets, and earn digital tokens to enhance their progress in the game.

One of the key features of “Star Symphony” is that it allows players to discover new music. The game also offers players an immersive experience with unique features such as a spell system, strategic gameplay, and a blockchain-based gaming ecosystem that provides players with complete ownership and control over their assets.
Its first product, “The Rhythm Battler”, combines elements from popular games such as Guitar Hero, Mario Kart, and Genshin Impact, where players collect unique characters, discover new music, and battle their way to become the ultimate Star Guardian.
“Star Symphony” appeals to a variety of players, including collectors, simps, and those who enjoy interesting lores, with casual, competitive, and party gaming modes.
