Let's School Reviews
Let's School is a business simulator dressed up as a school simulator, with a heavy focus on the business side of keeping a school operating and not much on the warm, fuzzy feeling that you might get from education and helping kids reach their goals. There are some visual bugs and some frustrating menu layouts to deal with in the Switch version of the game, but there is a deep, engaging – if a bit soulless – simulator here.
Let's School is a perfectly competent management game, but its focus on getting you to plan out timetables can get a little dull.
Let's School is a moderately okay management sim, which will definitely help you wile away a few hours. A lack of humanity lets it down and makes what could have been a very personable experience into another cog in the machine, taking away any individuality and losing the benefit of having the setting in a school environment by treating school life as purely transactional.
Let's School has some interesting ideas, but fails to execute them in a satisfying way and is particularly unwieldy on the Switch.
Let's School does a fine job giving players a management sim they can enjoy, even if it doesn't come close to the classic titles from Bullfrog or the more recent Two Point Campus.
Let's School has introduced several impressive updates, making investment and growth the main focus of the current version. The addition of club and activity systems also brings a lot of new content to the game. However, playing Let's School on the Switch may not be as great an experience as on the PC, as the font appears too small on the screen.

Let's School features a detailed school building system. You can indulge in the pleasures of classic simulation management games and enjoy looking after students, which may bring back memories of your own school days. However, the game's replayability are limited.

An interesting simulation game that has all that it takes to offer a well balanced gameplay experience, but it lacks depth to keep you entertained in the long course.

I found Let’s School a bit of an anti-climax. While the premise was there with the management mechanics, it just didn’t get me excited. I apologize if I appear to have come across negatively however the fun just did not come across for me. Let’s School is too repetitive in its tasks and lacks social interactions which in turn affected my long-term engagement with the game. Whether this was my experience due to playing it on the Nintendo Switch, I do not know. For now, Let’s School scores the Thumb Culture Bronze Award.
Let’s School is a fun and engaging video game that allows players to experience the joys and challenges of running a school. However, given limitations and the given genre, it may not live up to most people’s expectations. Still, considering its fair pricing model and a free demo, it is worth trying out.
Let's School is simply wonderful to play. The game is incredibly easy to pick up, and it makes sure that you learn the mechanics at a relaxed pace. Sadly, the game doesn't exactly have the most unique mechanics, but in all honesty, it is incredibly solid as it stands. Let's School is great for someone who wants to dip their toes into the School simulator genre or someone who wants something not too complicated and has an appreciation for handheld consoles of days past.
It’s easy to see each new mechanic as another way to stretch the game and add content, but the fact is they’re more than that. Teachers deal with everything in Let’s School and more, making it the most accurate school management game out there. If you want a challenge and something that’s going to push you beyond the limits of other management sims, this is the perfect game to pour dozens of hours into over the next few months.
Let’s School may be remembered as the most in-depth school simulator ever released, even towering above what Two Point Academy tried to accomplish last year. While there can be a lot of information force-fed to you at once, Panthea Games has done a great job of simulating the complexity of running a dynamic operation like a school. Even if it does feel less approachable because of that sometimes.
Let's School is a cute game that makes organizing timetables and classrooms fun, but the charm doesn't last long before it becomes a monotonous routine.
Pathea Games’ first steps into the simulation genre with Let’s School have turned out pretty well. It’s a deep and approachable school management game that’s enjoyable to play and includes plenty of content to keep you customising and playing while building up your school’s reputation.
