About School Life

School Life is an interactive story about the choices a high school student makes and what those choices cost. The game keeps putting forks in front of you and states plainly that your whole future life depends on them: will you be the school ringleader or the quiet honours student, will you skip class for the disco or stay home and study for the exam. The outcomes it dangles run a long way in both directions, from being thrown out of the house and ending up on the street to becoming a millionaire. Its most interesting feature is the escape hatch — if you are unhappy with the life you have made, you can go back in time and take a different route.

How to Play

Use a mouse click or a tap to play. Read each situation and choose how to respond — the decisions accumulate into the life your character ends up with. If you are not satisfied with where things are heading, use the option to go back in time and make different choices.

Tips & Tricks

Follow one line of choices consistently on a first run rather than hedging, since the endings reward commitment more than balance. Note where the game slows down to describe a decision — those are the forks that matter. Use the rewind to explore rather than to correct, because seeing the other branches is the point.
