Our take on Kowloon High-School Chronicle
Rather than separating school-life scenes from dungeon exploration, the game places both inside one treasure-hunting premise. Relationship building, first-person ruin navigation, puzzles, traps, and enemy encounters share the same adventure structure.
What is Kowloon High-School Chronicle?
Kowloon High-School Chronicle follows a transfer student at Kamiyoshi Academy who secretly works as a treasure hunter.
Beneath the school lies a hidden ruin tied to an ancient civilization, and the protagonist investigates it alongside new friends. The game combines role-playing, adventure, and first-person simulation elements. Progress involves developing relationships with classmates, solving puzzles, navigating traps, confronting monsters known as Kehito, and dealing with opposition from the student council. The central objective is to uncover the ruin's mysteries and find the treasure sealed below the school. This release is a remastered version of the game originally launched in Japan in 2004.
