High School Story

Game Description

Go Back to School

Nobody ever forgets their high school years. The loads of homework you were assigned each day. The nasty food in the cafeteria you had to eat. The silly sport rivalries everyone had to partake in. The annoying cliques that teased and bullied anyone they could. If your time in high school is or was bitter like that, then High School Story will give you a chance to show the world how a school should really be run.

You’ll make a school of your own, building by building and student by student. Populate it with all of your friends, make some new ones as you host activities on the school grounds, and show the folks over at Hearst High that your school is the best one in town. With luck, your school will be the happening place teenagers will want to attend.

Build the School

Schools don’t grow on trees; they have to be constructed first. High School Story gives you the power to decide the look and layout of your school, as well as what facilities it will include.

• Set up an admissions office to add more students to the body.
• Make classrooms where students can acquire books and increase their knowledge.
• Build hangouts for the assorted cliques to socialize in.
• Decorate your school with trees, roads, fountains, benches, half-pipes and so on.
• And much more!

Get to Know Your Students
