A social life-sim for iPhone
Move into a sunny city plaza full of real players. Work shifts, shop the looks, post clips on POPit, settle it in a fight and audition for the spotlight.
Free to play · Launching October 2026
01 · Make your Star
Pick a body type, a height and a style, then fine-tune the details. Every build moves right, in every outfit.
Face scan, if you want it. Your phone's front camera reads your face for a few seconds, and your Star gets a face picture made from it: your brows, skin, lips and facial hair. Undo it, rescan or remove it any time.
02 · Live in the plaza
Walk into the shops, grab a seat on the amphitheatre steps, catch a movie at the cinema or take the mic in a podcast studio. A full day goes by every 48 minutes: mostly sunshine, golden sunsets, neon nights.
Benches, café stools, sofas and the steps round the stage. Pull up and people-watch.
Hear the players around you. It's opt-in, your mic starts muted, and anyone can be muted or blocked.
Texts and calls with friends, the map, your jobs, the shop and POPit.
03 · Work it
Pick up a shift in the Jobs app, follow the gold line there and earn Coins. The better the shift, the better the pay, and more jobs open up as your Star Level grows.
Sip & Chill
Customers line up and say what they want. Make it step by step before their patience runs out.
Fit Check
Work the floor from stop to stop and keep the racks looking fresh.
Glow Up
Take the counter at the salon and keep the line moving.
Flex Zone
Make your rounds of the gym floor and keep everyone moving.
Round the plaza
Hit every spot on the route and get the word out.
The stage
Run between your marks on the amphitheatre steps and get the shot.
04 · POPit
POPit is the clip app on every Star Phone. Film a clip or snap a photo, as a selfie, in first person or with a cameraman you hire for the full-body shot, and post it to the whole city.
Likes, comments and follows come from real players, and they all count toward Star Level.
Go live from anywhere in the city and bring a friend on as your guest. Viewers hear you wherever they are.
Clips carry the game's sound, plus your voice only if you turn the Mic on.
Got sent a POPit link? It plays right here on ustar.world.
05 · Star Level
Your Star Level is the one number that says how far you've come, and the only way up is to play. There's no XP for sale and no level boost in the shop.
Likes and follows only count when they come from players who play too, so accounts made to farm them get nobody anywhere.
Levels open up new jobs, fights, going LIVE and audition tapes.
06 · Fights & auditions
Ask someone to fight and it only starts if they say yes. Lock on, throw hands and dodge. The boxing class at Flex Zone changes how you fight, and time at the gym makes you hit harder.
Win or lose, it counts toward your Star Level. Lose, and you just get back up.
Tape your audition on the movie set at the Creator Facility. The likes you get decide the finalists, and the finalists take the stage at a live finale, one by one, for a yes, a no or the golden buzzer.
Get cast and win the U STAR Cast title, Coins and a Cast Gold fit nobody can buy.
Skip the gym for over a week and your Star's weight starts to change. Treadmills are at Flex Zone.
Groove, hip hop and more. Dances loop until you move, wherever you are.
Texts and calls are between friends, and blocking someone blocks their posts, messages, voice and fight requests.
This October
Jack-o'-lanterns at every shop door, a little graveyard on the lawn, giant lanterns by the stage, and orange and purple lights when the sun goes down.
Free to play
Clothes, sneakers, hairstyles, the boxing class and more. Earn Coins on shift and from the daily reward, or buy a pack in the Shop.
No ads, a double daily reward, a members-only fit every month and member prices on clothes and hairstyles.
No ads in POPit. Monthly memberships renew until you cancel them in your Apple ID settings.
The only video ads are rewarded ones you choose to watch, for something like extra Coins. Never in a fight, never forced.
Prices are US prices; the App Store shows yours. Star Level can't be bought at any price.
Launching October 2026
Leave your email and we'll send you one message when U STAR is on the App Store. That's it.
Make your Star and see you in the plaza.
