About Anime City

Anime City blends a survival‑sim framework with the narrative style of classic anime visual novels. Players attend a Japanese high school, join clubs, and manage daily needs such as health, hunger, and comfort while exploring a world that mirrors anime‑style architecture, fashion, and food. The game offers extensive character customization, including gender choice, clothing slots, and apartment decoration, alongside skill development that influences social interactions and club performance. It is a single‑player experience with partial controller support and family sharing.

01 / THE GUIDE

School and Clubs

Classes cover subjects like history, physical education, Japanese language, and cooking. After lessons, players may join clubs such as gardening, tennis, drama, science, or music. Club leaders assign tasks that require participation, and completing them advances both the club’s progress and the player’s related skill.

  • Attend a variety of clubs to diversify skill growth.
  • Prioritize tasks that match your strongest skills for quicker success.

02 / THE GUIDE

Friendship System

Relationships improve by spending time with classmates and inviting them to club events. Positive interactions raise social stats and unlock new dialogue options. Friendship growth is tied to the character’s social skill, which can be enhanced through school and club activities.

  • Schedule regular hangouts to steadily increase friendship levels.
  • Use club events as opportunities to meet multiple characters at once.

03 / THE GUIDE

Skill Development

Skills such as fashion, cooking, science, sports, social, gardening, faith, and arts affect personal stats and interaction outcomes. Engaging in relevant activities raises the corresponding skill. Higher skill levels improve success rates for related tasks and open new customization options.

  • Focus on one skill at a time to see noticeable progress.
  • Combine club participation with related class subjects for faster gains.

04 / THE GUIDE

Customization Options

Players start as either a girl or a boy and can adjust a range of parameters. Over 20 equipment slots allow detailed clothing and accessory choices. Apartment furnishing lets you arrange furniture and decorations, further personalizing the in‑game environment.

  • Experiment with different outfits to discover style bonuses.
  • Arrange apartment decor to boost comfort stats.

05 / THE GUIDE

Survival Mechanics

The character tracks health, hunger, thirst, energy, and comfort. Managing limited resources is essential to keep these stats balanced. Neglecting any need can hinder school performance, club tasks, and social interactions, requiring careful planning each day.

  • Monitor all five stats regularly to avoid sudden drops.
  • Prioritize meals and rest when energy or hunger is low.
