About the Game

Dive headfirst into the atmosphere of student life, try not to flunk out, and make new friends. Spending day after day as a university student, find your own life path, balance studies and socializing, define your circle of friends, and don’t forget to take care of your needs to keep your energy up for adventures.

Key Features:

Make Connections:

Pay attention to your classmates and talk to those you feel most drawn to. Each of them has their own story that will unfold as your friendship deepens.

Study:

You’re here for knowledge (aren’t you?). Expect mini-games on various subjects, daily study routines, homework, and of course, a scholarship to keep you motivated not to drop out after your first semester.

Be Responsible:

You can always sleep through your first lecture, skip PE, or spend the whole class chatting with your friends. Only self-discipline will help you stay in university and maintain the relationships you’ve built.

Maintain Balance:

True friendship is worth putting your tasks aside from time to time. Burying yourself in studies or trying to please everyone might leave you without truly close friends.

Explore the City:

Each time you leave the walls of your university, you have an entire evening to wander the city, meet someone during your free time, pick up a few gifts at the mall, or feed the ducks in the park.

Decorate Your Living Space:

Even the most typical rental housing eventually takes on the atmosphere of its resident. You can pick a poster to hang above your bed or decorate your window with a garland of your choice. Buy decor items in the city’s shops to give your room a unique touch.

What Awaits You in the Full Version:

  • More Friends – Three new characters will join the main cast of the game.

  • A Whole Study Year – The game’s timeframe will expand sixfold, covering three seasons, each with its unique features and seasonal character outfits.

  • Holidays and Events – Take part in student parties, join a campus cleanup day, and celebrate New Year with your classmates. Each event offers a deeper connection with those around you.

  • More Story – Uncover the full story of your friends by completing each character’s unique main quest.
