A familiar school setting and coming-of-age story

In Agefield High: Rock the School, players take on the role of Sam, a student who moves to the town of Agefield with their family shortly before high school graduation. At the new Agefield High School, Sam meets Kale and Axel, a guy who calls himself a rock star.

Looking to leave behind a memorable legacy before graduating, Kale comes up with a plan called "Rock the School" and invites Sam to join. Players will spend their final months of high school with the group, facing various challenges and getting into plenty of awkward and hilarious situations along the way.

Time system and open-ended exploration

The game features a fixed schedule and school timetable. On weekdays, Sam is expected to attend classes until early afternoon. Players can choose to attend every class or skip school to roam freely and explore the town.

The world of Agefield High: Rock the School is designed as a small-scale open world featuring several key areas:

  • Agefield High School campus.
  • Two nearby residential neighborhoods.
  • Downtown Agefield.
  • The outskirts of town.

Players can earn spending money by getting high grades in their classes or skipping school to take on side quests. The money can be used to buy bicycles and clothing, change hairstyles, get tattoos, purchase accessories, or pick up entertainment magazines. However, skipping class or breaking the rules means players will have to avoid the attention of teachers and the police.
