About the Game

Fight Smart, Not Hard.

You're a nerd. And quite proud of it. They're not nerds. Let's settle it.

SCHOOLED is a bullet-heaven survivors-like where a nerd takes on swarms of all types of jocks and wins with his brain, not his brawn. No guns. No blood. Just superior intellect, a lot of chemistry, and pure ingenuity.

The Periodic Table of Elements isn't just Educational... It's Weaponized.

You collect real chemical elements, convert them to Periodic Table Element placards, and combine those symbols to spell words. The words you spell are the weapons you then acquire.

B · Er · S · Er · K spells BERSERK. Spell it, and you've got an appropriate berserk power. The deeper your science goes, the rarer and stronger the words (and powers) you can make.

Key Features:

  • Survive the Swarm: Take on escalating waves of footballers, wrestlers, hockey goons, and cheerleaders.

  • Spell Your Arsenal: Discover and equip an auto-firing loadout, transitioning from kitbashed school supplies to devastating Elemental word powers.

  • Expand Your Knowledge: Bank elements, build your mind, and unlock what no one's spelled yet (there's a massive table to find).

  • Fund the Rebellion: Collect jocks' championship rings, gamble them on a crypto-slot-machine you definitely didn't hack, and blow your winnings on the finest school supplies at the Canteen.

Get Schooled.
