The friends of Ringo Ishikawa

You play as Ringo Ishikawa, a high school gang leader facing his final stretch before graduation. The game follows his everyday life with friends and around town, mixing school-life simulation with a 2D beat-'em-up.

Choose how to spend each day: attend class, explore town, talk with people on their routines, work, study, exercise, train in fighting, or get into street brawls. Friends can join you in fights or spend time with you.

Studying, training, and other activities develop Ringo’s abilities and grades, while money can support his routine. The town also offers pastimes such as fishing, pool, poker, and ping-pong; the story unfolds alongside these daily choices.

Players who connect with the game often praise its melancholic atmosphere, reflective coming-of-age story, and the way everyday routines make Ringo’s world feel lived-in. Reviews also appreciate the freedom to choose how to spend his days and find the fighting satisfying, though some describe the routine as slow or repetitive and criticize the sparse guidance and limited influence over the story.
