However my complaint is it’s glitchy, my game will NOT load from the main menu so I constantly have to start over, since the game automatically takes you back to the main menu when you exit the game there’s no way around this. But my game just keeps crashing not allowing me to play past like week 13ish. Also there should be something that explains how to bring stats up, like my class progress is always going down, I don’t understand what affects it! I just want the game to quit crashing on me or not letting me load saved games! ### 3/5 — Fun but... *2025-12-12, version 1.0.5* I'm having fun playing, it does get a little repetitive in terms of classroom interaction... there's a glitch that keeps crashing while doing PE ### 3/5 — Great game, no energy :( *2025-12-09* I have had so much fun with this game so far! I love that we can personally interact with the students and teachers! Although, I find it hard to replenish the energy levels… I’m not sure if there’s a certain way to do so. We should have more options to get our energy up through the day/night. Besides that, I really enjoy this game and a lot of the details! ### 4/5 — Love This Game!! A Few Notes *2025-11-24* So, I been obsessed with this game since I downloaded it. I think it’s incredibly detailed and I really enjoy it. But I do have a few suggestions for the creator and helpful tips for those who love the game but don’t like the bugs. So far, I have not encountered many bugs (knock on wood), but i did experience two seemingly common inconveniences. First of all, there should be an auto-save feature, because I lost my entire school play that I was very excited about all because I closed the app. I personally think that auto-save should be a given for any game, but it’s not a huge deal because saving manually doesn’t take that long. And I get that creating a game can be a difficult and time-consuming process so it’s easier to release it and then fix bugs. But, a bigger problem was the fact that I could not load my save for a few minutes. I thought I had lost it. For anyone who experienced the same problem, try spamming the button and then opening a new save. It will try to close the app, but it doesn’t, so just go back to the screen. It might glitch for a second, but the save you tried to load should pop back up. Please fix this though!! Suggestions: -Maybe add some more age-appropriate distractions? -More field trip options -More names, less duplicates -Perhaps I just missed it, but could you create a page that elaborates on what everything means? I had to search online for how to use some features. Again, I love this game and I hope you keep updating it! ### 3/5 — bug fixes *2025-11-20* it’s a cool game ngl but everytime i try and play it like recently it doesn’t let me load into the game and it kicks me out the app but if i wanted to delete it everything would be fine ### 4/5 — Good *2025-11-02* Some of the reviews are saying there’s bugs and glitches I haven’t came across that problem there’s not much ads either my issue is you run outta energy quickly and I feel it’s hard to get energy back ### 3/5 — Game Is Great But Freezes After A While!! Please Fix *2025-10-26* I really enjoy this game — it has so much potential! I love how it gives an inside look into the classroom experience; that’s such a creative and refreshing idea. However, I’ve run into a recurring issue where the game freezes once I reach October. This has happened twice now. The first time, it froze and wouldn’t let me tap the “Load” button to continue my progress, even after 20+ tries, so I ended up deleting the app. Two weeks later, I re-downloaded it to give it another chance, but unfortunately, the same issue occurred again. This is a great game overall, and I’d love to keep playing — please look into fixing this bug! ### 3/5 — Over the top multitasking and variety per grade needs fixes *2025-09-13* Your progress resets randomly even after saving. Your energy depletes really easily. No options to replenish it other than when the day ends, which is only at a fixed rate. There’s also a bug where you can’t talk to teachers even though your energy is fine. Edit: it often times feel like you’re babying the students despite their grade or age/ 5 or 17, if someone drops their pencil, and you don’t help them, their relationship with you goes down. They’re like 17 and are more than capable. It’s unrealistic for a HS senior to cry over a dropped pencil in the middle of class. Dear god they’re extremely obnoxious. There’s a lot of work for kids in kindergarten, it makes little sense to do the same work for philosophy and PE and art. Why are kindergarteners doing advanced worksheets?? Do they even know how to spell? The work is very excessive for that age. More variety for every grade would be nice. The formatting is confusing and you can’t see the whole class without scrolling around, and the time events feels rushed. When you answer a student the timer doesn’t stop in the background, and the class suddenly ends. You have to put like half an hour in the beginning, and when you already put 20 minutes preparing the weekly syllabus, daily class preparation should be a done deal/ maintenance at that point. The class is literally less than a minute each. Having random pop-up options between each class when the lesson ends would be much more playable. Teachers in actual schools usually go in without NEEDING that much preparation for a single day. If a week, it makes more sense. ### 3/5 — Over the top multitasking and variety per grade needs fixes *2025-09-08* Your progress resets randomly even after saving.

It crashes every time I try ### 2/5 — major bugs *2026-01-01* this game seems amazing and i want to like it and play it, but i cant even get past the first day because it says i need a seating plan before i can teach a lesson even when every student has been seated ### 2/5 — Fun but needs bugs fixed *2025-09-27* Game doesn’t save correctly even when you click save, it glitches and you have to restart the entire game. ### 3/5 — HELP *2026-07-01* Class Progress decreases every week despite maintaining 95%+ engagement, planning lessons, teaching daily, and interacting with students. It appears impossible to increase Class Progress in version 1.2.1.” ### 3/5 — Greetings, *2026-06-18* This app is a great game, but I feel there is a lot of room for improvement. I feel adding furniture that we can actually see and interact with would change the game way more. Another suggestion would be adding game characters like teachers and students to the classroom. A great feature would be a principal and being able to send students to the principal. Another feature that I feel would be great is allowing the student characters to ask questions and raise their hands. Seeing them raise their hands would be a great feature to the simulation game. Adding field trips with live interactions, such as interactions that we can see and interact with in the game, would be nice. Along with seeing other classrooms, going to field trips, and being able to guide the class throughout the field trip with mini games, would be great. Being able to take the class to PE or other special ed activities would be wonderful as well. And a cafeteria with a school lunch calendar schedule and mini games in the cafeteria, such as serving, would be great as well, and silent Lunch would be lovely as well. And I feel that being able to take the class to recess would be delightful. Thank you for reading this. Have a great day! ### 3/5 — energy and stress are pointless *2026-04-12, version 1.2.1* my energy has been at 0 for ages and i can still do everything normally, there is no way to gain back energy really because you can only get 6 at night and you use basically more than six per lesson. class progress does not change and it isn’t clear on how to change it. ### 3/5 — Stressful *2026-03-24, version 1.2.0* Stressfullllllllllll but good! ### 3/5 — Keeps crashing *2026-02-05, version 1.1.1* Really good and I loved playing the game for the first few in game weeks, but once I got past week 5 I couldn’t play it because it kept crashing and eventually it wouldn’t let me open the app ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Plsss update it and add more things! *2026-06-04, version 1.2.1* Idk y but this game is actually so fun. $15 for getting rid of ads and just for other small perks is a lot, I woulda paid $5.99 for it but oh well. Anyways pls continue updating the game anddd adding more things to do, likeee I feel like this game has smmm potential! Oh and tokens and energy takes forever to come back, maybe add something else to get more energy. ### 5/5 — Great game! *2026-04-25* I love this game sosososo MUCH!!

A few bugs , etc the game freezes after a PE interaction. Energy replenishes quickly, but I am still able to use every action. Auto save should also be turned on. I made it too October with no saved file and had to restart. ### 5/5 — Really love this game! *2025-09-02* Keep up the good work, is it possible to have a university version in the future too? 😄 ### 4/5 — Richard Please *2026-06-23* Richard, please. This is the game I have always wanted to play. Please do not abandon it. I would love to help you develop it. I can’t code, but I’ve got so many ideas. And I’m also a teacher! This game is so great, and I want you to make it even better. So, Richard please, I beg of you, do not abandon this game. ### 4/5 — Energy *2026-02-05, version 1.1.1* Great game, however I am really struggling with energy. How do I get more energy? ### 4/5 — Walkthrough *2025-11-25* A button to help understand what each function does would be nice along with a color key for the calendar. I also think the play is glitched --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
