This game is a "school simulator game" which is made in Japan. The game is played in the small open fictional world "Sakura-town". We designed the game situations as if it is in a mixture world, that is the both of the situations in the real high school daily life in Japan and the situations which is shown in Japanese animations that sometimes contain very fantasistic elements. The half things you might see in this game will be really shown in japanese high school. In that sense, in this game, you can experience the simulated high school daily life in Japan as a student. This game is not an action and shooting game and so on but a simulator. Although we made violent actions and elements valid, but there are no descriptions of blood in the game. The people in the game world will be only fainted but will not be die. The concept of death does not exist in this game so that the fainted people will wake up next day, and they will hate you. You can do the actions below in the game. You can, control and change 4 players in the same stage (The two are valid after watching ADS.) choose avator cloths talk to students and other people choose the sentense for talking make friends and lovers through simulations attend the school lessons buy something and use by yourself or give it to other eat in sushi-bar earn money at car restore shop(a ADS. is shown.) drive a car untill be broken ride the atractions in the amusement park and so on. The above actions that you did will affect and simulate your playing in the various situations. There are no end in this game. Please make the situations as you like, and find favorite way for playing. We hope you will enjoy the game. The contents of this game will be added when we made the new game elements. The additional contents will be shown as a "new" context in this page. *NOTIFICATION Although we used the charactor models of AOI and TAICHI in this game, AOI is a NOT-FREE asset and TAICHI is a FREE asset.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: SAKURA School Simulator at 84% against Perfect Lie's 48%. SAKURA School Simulator also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 7) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Perfect Lie's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and chart position (#125 vs unranked). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Perfect Lie sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. SAKURA School Simulator asks for nothing beyond the download.
Perfect Lie holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Perfect Lie has 139K ratings behind it against 26K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of SAKURA School Simulator's written reviews are positive against 48% of Perfect Lie's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SAKURA School Simulator ships an update weekly, Perfect Lie every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 9, 2026.
