About This Game

Starting university abroad in 2034? Welcome to "Study Abroad Simulator"!

Experience college life in near-future America in this turn-based life sim. Play as a Chinese international student, apply to universities, choose your major, and manage your time and money through four years of studying, part-time jobs, internships, and research—with exercise, entertainment, and a social life to fit in, too.

Meet classmates, roommates, and friends from around the world. Become part of their lives and build friendships or romantic relationships. Your background, abilities, and choices will shape your college experience and its ending.

Manage Your College Life

From applications and choosing a university to moving into your dorm, prepare for your journey and begin four years of life abroad.

Each turn covers one month. Alongside story events, you’ll plan your classes, homework, part-time work, research, and internships, making the most of limited energy and living expenses. Keep your grades up, pay the rent, and look after your physical and mental health. Exercise, entertainment, campus activities, and socializing all offer different benefits and opportunities to grow.

Adjust your schedule to suit your goals, but be ready for plans to change. Random events can bring new opportunities or unexpected trouble. Leisure activities can help you unwind, but getting too caught up in them may begin to affect your studies and everyday life.

Minigames That Keep You Coming Back

A variety of minigames are woven into studying, working, and daily activities. Take on academic challenges, keep busy during a work shift, or try something different in your free time.

Some minigames combine your character’s abilities with card effects. Success takes more than good timing or quick reactions: how you prepare and which cards you bring matter, too.

Cards and Strategy

Cards play a part in minigames, homework, and academic challenges. Different effects and combinations can change how well you perform.

Choose cards to suit your courses and tasks, build on your strengths, and prepare for challenges outside your comfort zone. Some cards are consumed when used, while others have effects that change as you work through questions. Which cards to combine—and when to use them—is up to you.

Friendship and Romance, Regardless of Gender

Meet characters from around the world. As casual conversations grow into friendships, get to know their interests, families, and personal struggles. Share important moments in their lives, influence their endings, and perhaps fall in love.

All romanceable characters are available regardless of your protagonist’s gender, and you can pursue romantic relationships with multiple characters at the same time. Friendship and romance each have their own story content. Choosing friendship still lets you discover the other person’s story in depth.

Achievements Across Every Part of Life

Pursue achievements in academics, romance, personal development, career growth, research, and friendship. Focus on one area or balance several goals to experience different kinds of college life.

The College Plan gives you goals and rewards at each stage, helping you decide what to work toward next. Over four years, unlock different stories, achievements, and endings. Your grades, finances, and health also affect whether your journey abroad makes it all the way to graduation.

**Secrets Beyond Campus**

On your first playthrough, settle into college life. When you begin the journey again, you’ll have the chance to uncover a conspiracy behind the rapid advances in technology and AI, opening up new adventures.

Whether to keep investigating is your choice. This time, your decisions may reach far beyond campus—and could even make you a key figure in changing the fate of the world.
