✓ Willow O' WispI played the lite version and that was what convinced me to buy the full game. However, the full game does not work. For example, if I were to press the start button, I'd have to press the space above it..Willow O' WispVersion: 1.2.1

✓ This Game Is Too Hard!I’m Never Playing This Game Agian! Please Give Me A Refund!.Elijah R.R.Version: 2.15

✓ I spent $7 on thisThe controls are crap it doesn't give you a tutorial AND I spent $7 Don't buy this.$7 for thisVersion: 1.2.1

✓ A missWhile I still find PA to be a good game it's missing that crucial element that exists in other kiro games. Sure you can still build, hire employees but in GSD we had game types to unlock and in HSS we had customer types to unlock. Here the concept of dream jobs does exist but it's a pretty hollow shell of what the other games give..KnightOwlSCVersion: 1.1.0

✓ Can’tI couldn’t play a school and I just feel 😠.Smaile83Version: 2.17

✓ Could be better.... :/I LOVE this game..... But it needs more to it!!! If the people are gonna stay there the whole time, at least make the change between night and day!! Dorms for the students would be awesome. It would be better if you could see more conversation between students, and they should have Prom and other extra stuff like that. It would also be better if it were easier to make couples!!! More action with the teachers would be nice..... And let them be able to get detention or something!!!!!! PLEASE UPDATE THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!to whoever reads this... PLEASE ask for an update too so they will listen!!!! It could be so much more AWESOME!!!.Pocket frogs lover101Version: 1.1.0

✓ Could be better!The game as it stands is great and is full of surprises, however the financial system is bloody awful, if you pay attention to the action bar at the bottom, you may notice that at the end of the year, rather than student tuition adding money, it takes it away twice making you double in debt rather than gaining like 8 grand, theres also an issue where gaining 2 students per year is definitely not enough, fix it!.JamesyboyyyyyyVersion: 1.1.0

✓ New Update April 2021 bugsI was surprised to see this game get an update, but let me cut to the chase. On iPad the buttons are now smaller in portrait mode and the auto rotate is completely broken not full screen anymore! I’m curious what the bug fixes were, but I will update my review till this is fixed..DffxccVersion: 2.17

✓ Stupid money problem!!!!!!The game is so addicting and fun but…the stupid money runs out way to quickly! I had to start over the games like 5 times! I’m so mad! I like the game but I’m mad because of the money. Plz fix..Twyatt1977Version: 2.10

✓ Deducting teachers’ salary twiceA slow to get started, but enjoyable game, otherwise.Tripper MonsterVersion: 2.17

✓ Didn't enjoyI l've played game dev story and mega mall story, I had lots of fun with those but this one I found boring.K5mackVersion: 1.1.0

✓ Good Game, but not their best.I personally did not enjoy this one as much as the others. However it's Still a good game and cute idea..HaleysiphoneVersion: 1.1.0

✓ Good, butCan't move buildings. Really bad..Snow GiraffeVersion: 1.1.0

✓ Will not startI cannot start the app. Gives me an error message in Japanese..JazwonVersion: 2.17

✓ Fix it , please.Although Pocket Academy is really fun and time absorbent, I've had this problem with it where it freezes and once where it froze and would only zoom in and out every time I move the screen. I never had any problems regarding Kairosoft games but this is the first time. I tried exiting the app and then reopening it but still wouldn't work. Then I closed the app and patiently waited while doing something else for two hours because I thought all it needed was time but I thought wrong it was still frozen. The only way I can continue to play it is if I turn off my phone while the app was open. It happened more that 7 times (at least) and I purchased this app yesterday. I hope you fix this problem because although it's just one minor problem it occurs a lot and I'm tired of turning off and on my phone just to continue but I'm glad it auto saves even when I turn it off. It's sad to say I'm a bit disappointed because this is the first time I've ever had a problem while playing any Kairosoft games in about 2 years..Crappy App,Version: 1.1.0

✓ Rushed?It's not bad.. Harder than the other kairo games.. At first I didn't understand how to keep out of the red and I'm on year 6 now and still wondering how you get more students.. I have 4 pop spots and still only 20 students.. The entrance ceremony only pulls in like 5.. I am thinking the game needs to be re balanced or something.. There definitely should be a proper tutorial. Kind of feels like they rushed this one!.True_blue1878Version: 1.1.0

✓ Fun game butWhy is everyone blonde now? What happened to the original hairstyles? Seemed a lot better with the brown and black hairstyles.RawrrrrrrrrapplesVersion: 2.19

✓ AverageOut of all their games, I regret buying this one. Very hard, and for a long time you don’t go anywhere, nothing happens. Game moves very slowly... They do produce some great, addicting games, but this isn’t one of them..Jesso50Version: 2.06

✓ Is it a glitch?In the beginning of the game we were allowed to select our characters gender, name, face, and type. I chose my character to be a "leader" type, but when I started the game it was an "average"....why? My character graduated and came back to the school...but its type remains as average. Great game and all, I have played this several times on different mobiles, but this has never happened..Aquafina88Version: 2.01

✓ Make more new games!This is game is super hard.. Had it for years still don't know how to play it.. Always end up in debt just matter of time.Kairohas been lazyVersion: 1.2.0

✓ Academy and Academy ZeroSo I have been playing the free version some time and I enjoy it, and then I see this one that has a bit more in depth things, like more decorations and student to student interaction, etc. but with Zero, they actually go home and then come back, class starts, etc. and at the bottom it shows that time is moving forward, when tests are, graduation, break, etc., and they actually take the tests and you see the results… the one I actually paid for, doesn’t have that. Is there some kind of bug? Time is going by, months, and they are still at school and the teachers have only taught once. And it said it was test day, but nothing happened..Ewasam95Version: 2.17

✓ Ok game!I played this game around 5 years ago and started playing again. It’s refreshing but the mechanics are confusing and it seems like things happen randomly. I’ve only had one couple this play through and it seems like the factors to have a couple make little to no sense. My students have decent popularity, but don’t want to date. The Cupid item is pretty much useless and a waste of points. I don’t think couples boost or improve your school much anyways, so I feel like the couple mechanics are pointless. I wish there was a way to rotate facilities or even an option to move them because you have to plan way ahead of time. I also wish there was a way to get smarter transfer students and 1st year students, because I have to grind 1st semester (which should be named “trimester”, as there are 3 terms. Semester is 2 terms.) special classes so my scores and rank don’t tank. There isn’t a lot of class rooms and the Max, regardless of map size is three, which is a bummer. Since this game is originally from Japan, there are translation errors to the max. I’m not to bothered by it, but the text flow breaks up words which makes it harder to read. A lot of words are awkwardly abbreviated too. It’s a good game, I wish this was updated but I highly doubt it will be. Some mechanics are wonky which you will have to figure out on your own. I used the Kairosoft wiki to help, but other than that you are 100% blind in the dark with little to no guidence..HollyDolly1010Version: 2.17

✓ Not working anymoreEvery time I click on Empty Slot to start a game, the school selection is blank and I can’t do anything from there..GangstahanstaVersion: 2.06

✓ AverageThe game is addictive, I must admit, however I don't see the end goal, except being number 1 ranked school. GameDev story, for those that have played, had a lot to aim at - winning game awards, beating gamedex members, selling most copies, building consoles etc. I also don't like the lack of help, tutorials etc. I had to start 4 or 5 games, being told by the helper to get more teachers, before reading online not to listen to the helper and basically do the opposite. The controls are also pretty poor. It's as if the game was made on the PC then transfered. You end up building something in the wrong place, which you then can't move you have to destroy and rebuild, spending twice as much. You end up selecting things you don't want to, etc. PROS: + addictive gameplay + good depth + clever story CONS: - slow starting - bad help - no obvious goal - unintuitive touch controls.JdrawmerVersion: 1.1.0

✓ ReviewWell first of all it's an awesome game but on the down side it's not so easy to make money like when you need to pay the teachers and for the supplies. To pay for that it coast a lot of money. I always end up with - 30.00. So if you fix it then I'll give you 5 starts everyday and I'll keep it up for a month. Your choice.Michelle AminiVersion: 1.1.0

✓ Money is AnnoyingMoney is sooo hard to earn but losing money is sooo easy, its not as fun when I'm sitting around waiting for more money to come about. I had to fire all my teachers just to get off the minus. This really annoys me, please make an update that gives u more money or things take away money. It would make the game MUCH more fun. Otherwise the game is highly addicting until you get annoyed because your on minus $50,000 -_-.YroksterVersion: 1.1.0
