A matter of principle
Bad Principal is a free simulator for Android tablets and smartphones. It lets players live out their fantasy of being a school principal. As it enables them to make all the rules at Moorland High, it’s similar to the Brookhaven RP role-playing experience for Roblox but without any freedom to roam or randomness.
This free smartphone game was developed by Cheddar Box Games, makers of countless quizzes, word search puzzles, merge games, runners, and card games. Less an assistant and more of a simulator, Bad Principal is similar to Teacher Simulator and School Teacher Simulator Games but without the educational aspects.
Who can play it?
This 3D simulator is available to download for free on Google Play. It is currently only available in English. Though the game does not come with any in-app purchases, it may share the user’s ID, location, and other personal information with third parties.
What’s it about?
In this easy-to-play job sim, players take on the role of headteacher at Moorland High. They must consider proposals for new school rules, choose whether to approve or decline them and announce their decisions in front of the students. These become enforceable right away, and students will instantly show their reaction due to emoticons players can see in real time.
What’s special about it?
This free game’s best feature is its simplicity. There’s no reward system, goal, monetization mechanism, or leaderboard. All it has is a series of unusual and sometimes hilarious rule propositions that test the player’s audacity, poise, and ability to keep a horde of students under control.
Lay down the law
With only a few minutes of gameplay and no real sense of purpose or direction, this high-school principal simulator may not be most people’s cup of tea. Still, it may be an option for those looking for some light-hearted phone gaming.
