Get all the hype you've been dreaming of!! Enter the simulation to see how life is when the spotlight is on you! After the set up, you get 15 minutes to experience the life of a social media star! There's so much you can do: post your own videos, receive comments and reply to them, chat with your fans (they're all bots!), get cancelled and even get notifications from whoever you like! Once your time is up, you can start all over again!! If you play on Career Mode, you can build your fanbase, level up through 10 levels, earn and spend hypecoin, and make decisions that impact how you grow as an influencer. The environment is completely controlled, and all of your data is safe, only ever stored on your own device (we do not store ANY data, including photos you upload, what you say to your "fans", search terms, profile data etc). We are not affiliated with any other social media platform. In fact, we are not a social media platform at all. This app is merely a parody on the concept of social media fame, and serves the purpose of educating people about how digital fame feels. We hope that after using our app, people will recognize that the important thing is not the number of likes they got, but the people they engaged with and the content they created.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Scenebot Stage at none against Hype Simulator's shown. Scenebot Stage also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.4). Hype Simulator's advantage is rating (3.8 vs 3.3) and review sentiment (61% vs 35%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
