Pupa普帕

Dare to relive your high school years? Welcome to Pupa High School, a charming blend of 2D, Roguelike card game and visual novel, crafted with a dash of life experiences from our creative team. It's all about resource management, making choices, battling brain-bending questions, and navigating the complex web of relationships to cultivate your digital alter-ego into maturity.

"Pupa," rooted in Latin, translates to "doll" – a symbol of potential, awaiting to be animated by life. Just like puppets in a grand show, our high school selves are often in a flux - yearning to mature but not yet fully mentally developed. Each decision we make then carries an echo of the butterfly effect, capable of setting our future life's course.

So, immerse yourself in the sweet nostalgia of Pupa High School, whether you're currently in the throes of adolescence or looking back on them with fondness. Navigate the tumultuous journey of metamorphosis and perhaps, shape a different life trajectory for your digital persona. Embrace the challenge; it's time for a magnificent second act!

If you could go back to high school, what would you do?

Pupa is the immature bed of butterflies. The intermediate stage between larva and adult butterfly. High school life is a cross between our restless adolescence, between the pure childhood and the complex society. We are like pupa and butterflies, hesitant and uncertain, eager to grow up but not fully mature, and every choice we make during this period also has a butterfly effect, which may affect the trajectory of our lives afterwards. In PUPA high school, you can immerse your mind into the life of your youth, whether you are in it or it is a memory.

Pupa has a relaxing gaming experience as well as a dramatic one.


Visual novel is the main experience you will get from the game. Every choice matters.


Manage your relationships with other characters who are your classmates, friends, or...lovers?


Use logic to answer interesting questions in class!

The Roguelike card collection and battle expereince are the sidekicks of the visual novel experience.


Take control of your energy and choose your actions during the lessons carefully, they will affect the properties of the knowledge cards you get.


Collect knowledge cards, they act as your main combat unit and can effectively knock down an enemy's HP bar.


There are plenty of extracurricular activities as well as side storylines through which to collect skill tiles and talents, or to boost your energy limit for the next round.

They can all be your friends, or foes.

Exams are one way to test your learning, and in order to be the "king of grinding" in Pupa, you need to:


Manage your library of cards, get a better understanding of knowledge and skill cards, or, just go through their introduction?


Build decks and combine them with the gifts you've gained to find the right school of combat for you.


Use the knowledge from your classes to recognize the properties of a title and then combine the cards to attack a title most effectively, and use your skill cards and gifts wisely to get the most out of your card decks!

Start over and turn into a butterfly, are you ready?
