So much fun!!!!
Thu Jul 23 2020 TKCrapoI love this this game! Fun graphics, almost no ads! Completely appropriate for all ages! This game is so fudging cute! This is my favorite game I have! I would like it if you had more options of the students that attend the school though, and more uniforms and maybe some more hair styles. I would also like if you could try and set up blind dates for the characters! I love this game, definitely worth downloading! There is one thing though, every time someonr gets asked out they get rejected. Only one person has said yes!
Ok game!
Fri Jun 11 2021 HollyDolly1010I played this game around 5 years ago and started playing again. It’s refreshing but the mechanics are confusing and it seems like things happen randomly.
I’ve only had one couple this play through and it seems like the factors to have a couple make little to no sense. My students have decent popularity, but don’t want to date. The Cupid item is pretty much useless and a waste of points. I don’t think couples boost or improve your school much anyways, so I feel like the couple mechanics are pointless.
I wish there was a way to rotate facilities or even an option to move them because you have to plan way ahead of time. I also wish there was a way to get smarter transfer students and 1st year students, because I have to grind 1st semester (which should be named “trimester”, as there are 3 terms. Semester is 2 terms.) special classes so my scores and rank don’t tank.
There isn’t a lot of class rooms and the Max, regardless of map size is three, which is a bummer.
Since this game is originally from Japan, there are translation errors to the max. I’m not to bothered by it, but the text flow breaks up words which makes it harder to read. A lot of words are awkwardly abbreviated too.
It’s a good game, I wish this was updated but I highly doubt it will be. Some mechanics are wonky which you will have to figure out on your own. I used the Kairosoft wiki to help, but other than that you are 100% blind in the dark with little to no guidence.
Forever one of my favorites
Fri Jun 11 2021 Lizzy HoodThis game was one of my first Kairosoft games ever. It is absolutely so much fun and a great time killer if you’re ever bored. There is so much to do and once you get a hang of the strategy it becomes a piece of cake. Each map is super unique, with their own challenges and layouts to overcome.
One thing I do hope that happens is an updated sequel. Mega Mall’s sequel looks super promising and I’m excited to play it— this game is a tad old and it would be very refreshing to see a modern version of this game. Please not F2P though… those games are typically not my favorite. More character options, make the personality traits actually matter, more class events, etc. would really give this game more depth and personalization.
I grew up playing this and Kairosoft has always been a part of my video game history. Please continue to put out great titles!! <3
Academy and Academy Zero
Wed Oct 06 2021 Ewasam95So I have been playing the free version some time and I enjoy it, and then I see this one that has a bit more in depth things, like more decorations and student to student interaction, etc. but with Zero, they actually go home and then come back, class starts, etc. and at the bottom it shows that time is moving forward, when tests are, graduation, break, etc., and they actually take the tests and you see the results… the one I actually paid for, doesn’t have that.
Is there some kind of bug? Time is going by, months, and they are still at school and the teachers have only taught once. And it said it was test day, but nothing happened.
Unlock conditions are bugged!
Fri May 13 2022 WendiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiI couldn’t unlock the lab and the art room for some reasons... I am already a prestigious school and I have music room and one of the students has intellect over 90 but the buildings are not unlocked...
I believe the game is bugged...
Just as good if not better
Mon Nov 04 2019 StarnautI played the lite version for the longest time. I had no idea there was a full version. There is so much more in this and I’m happy. The only thing I miss between the two is the fact that the students go home at the end of each month instead of at the end of the year. It’s just weird to see them there all the time but you get used to it. Love Kairosoft games and can’t wait for their next masterpiece
Addicting as hell
Tue Sep 25 2018 RebochanThe price is too low for how much I’ve played this. I love building schools, I love the silly mental images I create out of my students lives, I love that I can hire a duck, a bear, a monkey, and a ghost to be teachers! Plus the New Game Plus and the alternate maps, good lord this has value!
Big tip though - expand slow and be smart about your hiring. Teachers can have great stats but cost way too much given that their stats only come into play the first of every semester.
brings back memories
Fri Sep 15 2023 IreneS2I remember playing this & all the sequels during my middle school days 10 years ago and they're still so good! Most of the Kairosoft games used to be completely free with no ads but days have changed so I get it... Most apps now require purchases and subscriptions. I am just glad that they're still arnd for me to play <3
AHH!!!
Wed Feb 06 2019 CourtneyDianne98I love love love this game! I’ve been playing it on and off for the past 8 years. I have some suggestions, increase the map sizes and make it to where the students are there longer than 3 years at a time and possibly make it to where we can choose the classes they take based on what year they are.
New Update April 2021 bugs
Mon Apr 12 2021 DffxccI was surprised to see this game get an update, but let me cut to the chase. On iPad the buttons are now smaller in portrait mode and the auto rotate is completely broken not full screen anymore!
I’m curious what the bug fixes were, but I will update my review till this is fixed.
