How to Play

Start your adventure in "High School Daze: Junior Year 2" by selecting your preferred save slot and jumping in where you left off from the original game, or begin a fresh junior year journey. The game is entirely mouse-driven, perfect for browser play—just point and click to interact with characters, make choices, and progress dialogue.

Your main objective is to balance academics, relationships, and personal growth. As scenes unfold, you’ll face multiple-choice dialogues that influence your character’s relationships and outcomes. Navigate school events, after-class hangouts, and late-night texts; every choice you make will shape your experience, unlocking new scenes or secret endings.

Don’t forget to check your inventory and stats—these track progress in relationships, grades, and extracurricular achievements. Timing is key: some events occur only on specific days or when your stats reach certain thresholds. Explore each area by clicking interactive hotspots and talking to classmates, faculty, and friends—sometimes even those you least expect can change your story! For beginners, prioritize exploring social options and experimenting with choices: there are no 'game over' screens, so replay and discover all the paths high school has to offer.
