Campus Crush vs High School Life
Campus Crush
Campus Crush is a story-based college dating game developed by the very people behind the successful interactive story game, Episode - Choose Your Story. In this game, you'll get to play as a freshman who's starting college at Lockwood University, one of the most prestigious college in the state. There are plenty of new friends (or even frenemies) to meet, hot guys to date, sororities to join, and parties to attend. Of course, there is also that mysterious benefactor of yours who had offered you the scholarship you're on - who is the person and what does he/she wants?This separate app is actually a sneak peek of the full version available on Episode. So if you find that you've enjoyed playing this game, you might want to check out Episode for the full story.
High School Life
High School Life is an interactive story game that might be a bit simplistic. Instead of having a deep and well-hashed-out story, the most you'll be doing in this game is dressing up to meet and flirt with boys, and hopefully, you'll get a date to the school dance, be it Homecoming, Sadie Hawkins, Winter Formal, Valentine’s Day or the actual Prom. You don't get to spend a lot of time in the actual high school setting though, despite being a game titled as "High School Life".The characters in the game aren't very well-designed either. The boys in the game seem to look especially flat-faced and honestly, a bit on the ugly side of things. The "texting a friend" feature is pretty interesting but it would have been nice to have some sort of interaction with your BFF at school, where again, being a high-schooler, you should be spending most of your time at.
High School Life is a pretty shallow version of an interactive story game and hence, is a poor alternative to games like Episodes or Choices, but it might still be enjoyable for some players who like something simple.
