My Universe - School Teacher (PS4)

I love how you actually have to plan lessons and grade papers, which makes it feel way more immersive than I expected. The mini-games for keeping the kids engaged are surprisingly addictive. It’s a charming little time-waster that hits the right nostalgic notes for anyone who’s ever wanted to teach.

The class management is surprisingly deep—you’re juggling pupil moods and lesson prep in a way that actually feels like a real school day. Competing against other schools for the top spot adds a fun layer of tension that keeps me coming back for one more week. It’s a chill but engaging sim that nail

I was skeptical about a teacher sim, but managing my own class of these little pupils is way more engaging than I expected. The competition between schools adds a nice layer of strategy, and I’ve already lost an evening to it.
