Idol A Live is a board game released in 2024 for 2–4 players and 15–30 minutes per game. It was designed by kaku and its main mechanics are Open Drafting and Deck Construction.
Lead your team of Idols to the top by playing song cards to crank up your voltage and attract fans! Each idol has a unique center skill that can change the way you play the game, as well as themed song cards with a variety of beneficial effects. Though you want to attract as many fans as possible, some might be more trouble than they're worth! Build your own deck of song and event cards themed around your chosen idols, then compete in a fan-recruiting duel with the other player. If you're the first to get 20+ victory points (obtained mainly by recruiting different fans), you win! —description from the publisher
