Official Twitter / Beginner Guide / Discord
Welcome to The Break Room! This is a general question and free talk thread for asking questions about Starlight Stage, posting gacha results that don’t meet the luck post exceptions, posting smaller achievements, and discussing anything else related to the game that wouldn’t warrant a standalone thread! For those that were here before 2022, this is a direct merge of the Q&A and Discussion Megathreads so they’re now in one place.
Before you post a question, be sure to:
- Check the FAQ below for an answer to your question or look through the misc FAQ!
- Encountered a bug / glitch? Check on Game Bugs for current bugs before posting!
- Check to see if your question was already answered in this thread (or the previous Q&A threads)
- Read through the resources listed below and search the subreddit for your question.
If you’re experiencing a technical issue, be sure to include basic information such as your current device, OS version, CGSS version, as well screenshots of any error screens. Help us help you!
