The main game's gameplay is a takeoff of the Japanese rhythm game Osu!.

Songs are sung by cover artists, and not the original artists.

It starts when Sharpay signed up the gang auditioning for a national music competition. They have problems in between (i.e.: Taylor thinking Chad is cheating on her, while Chad was just scared of heights since the other part of the competition would be held at a high altitude).

There are three different types of gameplay: Dance, music, and video making showdowns.
