About the Game

Shroom's finally done it-- he's in college, just like he always dreamed. His goal? To be a good student and secure himself a future he can be proud of. And he'll do anything to make sure he does. Unfortunately, he's the farthest away he's ever been from his home, and the worst part is, he's all by himself. Will college end up being what he expected it would be?

In this short, single-player experience, play three different mini-games to complete the tasks of daily life as a college student. Help Shroom wake up on time for work on time by matching the beat of his alarm tone. Work hard fulfilling orders and studying to earn money to pay bills and avoid eviction. Explore the small but ever changing world of Shroom's apartment. Interact the daily surroundings and experience the story of Shroom's first semester at college across seven key days.

Can you help Shroom escape the monotony of college life and the constant pitfalls that come with time management and anxiety?
