Let's School Review (Willow)
I don't usually make reviews but this game deserves one. I played the demo "Let's School Homeroom" back before this even released and spent a good 8 hours messing around, which is the longest I've ever spent on a demo.
I finally cracked and bought it a week ago (due to the sale) and as a full time university student who is fairly busy, I have truly spent all my free time playing this (including free time I really should have spent sleeping).
What I like:
- This is probably the most addictive game I've played in a long time
- My favourite tycoon type game honestly ever
- Very very solid as a game to play in the background (once you have everything going), so great for watching movies or youtube while playing
- Seeing how good your school is doing is very rewarding
- Cats
- You can play infinitely after winning (I'm planning to keep my save going until all the other principles retire lol)
- So much more!!!
Missing elements and problems:
- Takes some time to get the hang of (but so good once you do!)
- Janitors
- More clubs (particularly one for science and humanities) (Maybe robotics and debate would be good?)
- pop up for when a teacher makes a demand, because i often miss them
- The class learning stuff seems wrong, and I've just gotten used to knowing they will all pass even when the games says everyone will fail
- Missing an achievement for winning via clubs
- a couple rooms like the tea room or the announcement? room need to be a little too big
- I made the worst sounding song ever and have been punished to hear it every period 5, i am in hell help, let me turn off hearing it please, I want to hear my good songs, but I only hear monsters
For a first time play, you need to do normal (or easy i guess) and do fast time. Anything longer is way too slow of a start unless you already know what you are getting yourself into.
If it's similar to the demo I played, you get to keep your save files, so just try the demo and see if you'll like it, if this doesn't convince you
