About the Game

The Story
Eli hasn’t always been the brightest crayon in the box, mainly because he ate those ones back in kindergarten. It’s almost summer break and he is ready for it, he has made multiple plans with his best friend, Joey. However, there is only one thing that is in his way, HIS GRADES. The government has just passed a law where if a student has a failing overall grade they will have to go to Summer School for the entire break. Determined to change his fate of an entire summer break spent at school Eli has hatched a plan for his final day of school. He is going to challenge all of his teachers and peers to an RPG battle for his GRADE. On the last day of school, Eli gets ready to challenge every single person in his school and to challenge everything we knew about High School.
