About the Game

This is a game that simulates the daily life and school experiences of Chinese individuals born in the post-80s era. For the post-80s generation, primary school life has passed imperceptibly for thirty years. It was an era filled with the joy of learning. After class, there was a pleasant time for entertainment:
Hopscotch: Draw nine squares on the ground and jump on them according to the rules of the game.
Fanning Cards: Fold cards with beautiful patterns together, place them on the ground, and then pat the ground. Those who flip the cards can take them away.
Rolling Iron Hoop: Hold the long bar in your right hand, attach it to the hoop, and push it to roll the iron hoop.
This game will take you back to the 1980s in China, showcasing the school life, culture, entertainment, and other aspects of the living environment during that time.

Daily events

In order to better show the daily life of primary school students in the 1980s, we prepare appropriate events and dialogues, hoping to take you to experience the daily life of primary school students in China from a more comprehensive and unique direction.

Rich item system

Hua Huadan, big rolls, figs... these names that were familiar in the 1980s will all appear in our games in the form of props.

The face of Chinese folk

Stylized character designs of various characters, matched with contemporary clothing, will show you the cultural characteristics of the 80s.

Nostalgic scene

A large number of exquisite scenes, coupled with the original hand-painted paintings, are beautiful and nostalgic. We hope to bring the 80th century to the players again.

Unique growth system

Talents are matched with growth levels to create a unique growth system in the game. Players can freely control their own development direction, thereby affecting the flow of the game. Whether you want to become a schoolmaster, a master of sports, or an all-round development is entirely up to you.
