High School Days is an adult visual novel by El Ciclo, built in Ren'Py. You play a male student who moves in with his grandmother after a family crisis and begins a new life in town. The story is a coming-of-age sandbox set in a school-centered world, with over 37 female characters, each with her own personality and story arc. It uses comic-book art, animated scenes, interactive locations, and minigames, while choices can lead to romance, rejection, or more intense outcomes. Its themes include harem and school setting.
The current build is v0.290, released on August 24, 2026, and development is ongoing. It runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android, with English and Spanish text, and is uncensored. The latest update adds Giorgia as a new character, the event How far is enough?, and a Katherine encounter. It also addresses older variable and image conflicts, corrects Sara's hands, and rebuilds statistics sharing so synchronization is faster.
Developer's description
Step into the MC's shoes, a young student whose life takes a sudden twist when a family crisis forces him to move in with his grandmother. New town, new rules… and a lot more temptation than he ever expected. While his parents try to sort things out, he is left to navigate a city full of surprises—where every corner hides a story, a memory… or a dangerously cute smile.
This is a coming-of-age story with a wicked twist, featuring
over 37 flirty, feisty, and unforgettable girls
—each with her own unique personality, story arc, and secrets to uncover. From the shy girl next door to the dangerously bold bad girl, you'll never know who's around the corner... or what kind of trouble she’ll bring.
Explore a vibrant world packed with interactive locations, fun minigames, smooth animations, and a comic-book art style that brings every scene to life. Add a generous dose of humor, spicy dialogue, and more than a few “oops-did-I-just-do-that?” moments, and you’ve got an unforgettable ride.
Every choice you make can lead to romance, rejection, or something far more explosive. Will you play it safe, or risk it all for that one perfect moment?
