Ever wanted to relive the stress of high school exams—but, like, fun stress? That’s basically "Koukou Nyuushi Deru Jun" on Game Boy. You’re just a kid trying to balance studying, club activities, and somehow not flunking out, all in that classic chunky-pixel aesthetic. The first time I played, I blew off studying to join the baseball team and immediately regretted it when midterms rolled around.

It’s got that weirdly satisfying loop of managing your time, picking which subjects to cram for, and praying your stats don’t tank. The music’s got that tinny Game Boy charm, and there’s something weirdly addictive about watching your little guy shuffle between classrooms. If you’ve got a soft spot for retro sims or just miss the days of pencil-chewing panic, this one’s a time capsule worth cracking open.
