Pathea Games, best known for popular crafting-sim games My Time at Portia and its recent follow-up, My Time at Sandrock, have announced a new management sim. Let’s School will release via Steam Early Access in early 2023 on PC.

In Let’s School you’ll build an entire school from the ground up, choosing among dozens of facilities and hundreds of teaching equipment. You will hire staff and faculty. Day-to-day operations include monitoring student relationships and progress, caring for your teachers’ well-being, and hosting in-school activities and social groups.

Pathea Games promises a story-driven campaign with randomly generated events and emergencies, so that no two campaigns play the same.

“Let’s School is a bit of a departure from what the world knows us for, but after being prototyped by our producer Lanka for 18 months everyone at the studio just fell in love with the project”, said Alice Zhou, Brand Manager. “Since then the team has grown substantially to a handful of developers and we’re been blown away by what they’ve been able to achieve. Any fans of management sims are going to get a big kick out of this one.”

More details on the game will be announced in the weeks leading up to launch. Let’s School will arrive on Steam Early Access early next year.
