A campus simulation game full of tons of surprising interactive gameplay elements along the way.
The game allows you to step into the shoes of a high school student in 1990s China, where the core gameplay loop revolves around building relationships with a diverse cast of 23 unique characters, including both male and female students. You have the freedom to approach these relationships in various ways, such as talking, dating, traveling, and engaging in other interactive activities.
The game's robust relationship system lets you have up to 9 girlfriends simultaneously, reflecting the open-ended nature of the experience. Building these relationships is a gradual process, requiring you to invest time and effort into activities like going on dates, giving gifts, and sharing experiences to slowly increase your standing with each character.
Beyond the relationship system, the game features a narrative with branching paths and consequences. Your choices, both in how you approach your relationships and other aspects of campus life, can lead to different outcomes and endings. For example, deciding to join the local mafia organization instead of a campus club will significantly impact your later experiences and the game's conclusion.
Interspersed throughout the campus simulation are a variety of minigames and interactive activities. These include a tile puzzle-based part-time job system and more action-oriented gameplay, such as a combat system that allows you to engage in physical altercations with other characters. These gameplay elements add depth and diversity to the overall experience.
The game also features a campus system that introduces consequences for your actions. Factors like academic performance and conduct can impact your character's standing within the school, potentially leading to punishments such as expulsion if you don't maintain a certain level of discipline. This adds an element of strategy and encourages you to carefully balance your priorities.
Another aspect of the gameplay is the ability to join campus clubs or even the local mafia organization. These factions offer different paths, with varying degrees of 'good' and 'evil' choices. Your affiliation can influence your relationships, standing within the school, and the overall narrative trajectory.
