Yeah....IDK. I defiantly do not know why the rating is 1.84 lol. Ok seriously- this wasn't the best, and I'll explain.
- ORIGINALITY
Alright, so from what I can tell, you only mention any inspiration in the credits, coming from "this was inspired from Tom's Pico's School". However, at no point, you never mentioed @JonBro, the creator of the Riddle School series, also inspired by Pico. Why do I belive this was more Riddle influenced? Well...
1. The concept is literally the same- Character is bored, Decide to escape school, Needs to get the key, uses key, escape complete!
2. The UI reminds of the original one- inventory in bottom corner and map in top corner. Similarly, you went for a one color pallet, for Riddle School, it was red, for this, it was green. And not to mention, you use the exact same concept for the NESW buttons!
3. Most of the layout and characters are similar, sunch as the first room your in is the "Special Class". Not insane however. Also, many of the characters have similar personalites, the janitor is a copy of every janitor in the series, Mr Louis acts like Mr Read (RS3), and Ms Edna almost looks the exact same as Mr Munch! And I nearly forgot- THE SINK.
4. You attempted to copy Jon's sense of punny and funny humor- you failed. The comedy is about as dry as a stale bagel. Like, it took me 20 seconds to realize what you were going for with "Oh man, I'm a guy!"
5. Most of the puzzles are similar; getting something from the supply closet, opening a certain locker, giving money to get a treat, etc. Speaking of puzzles, WHAT WENT THROUGH YOUR BRAIN THINKING KILLING A TEACHER IS OK?!?! (i know its rated teen, but still?)
6. Finally, on July 8th, 2008, the biggest installment of the series then, RS3, got frontpaged. I'd imagine you saw it and tried to profit (well not really profit more of benifit) from Jon's actually good game.
So yeah. It really angers me that Jon got NO credit in this game. >:(
- QUALITY
Oh don't you dare get me started on that! I thought the jokes were bad, but almost everything is bad! I mean, the art wasn't to bad...but it's not as good as I wanted. Like, was I the only person to notice this weird corner glitch in the Teacher's Lounge?!?
and whi is almost every baloon dialouge.has broke grammer and bad spellng!! like, plz tel me im not de only 1 2 notice diz?1? Don't worry, thats not gonna be the whole review. And honestly, to get back to the jokes- theres barley anything to go on! There's no crappy jokes in the supply room, only "This is ___" and the dialouge is so dr- oh wait, NOW IM REPEATING MYSELF! You know what, I'm making a whole paragraph devoted to this.
- "HUMOR"
Alright, so what do we have...
Some rebel teenager named Smith who looks oddly way to much like a male Cassandra (hmmm) wants to be president. Ok, going back to the copy of Jon, this is just a worst 5- or even Darnell! There's also this (ironically) crude poster in the Janitor's closet that kinda makes me cringe. Of course it's ice cream, why is it in the cone then? Had you done this with something like puding, it could have made a bit more sense. And finally for humor, I gotta love how after you kill the teacher, Simon says "eNjOy tHe cOoKiE!". That's not funny- it's just cruel.
- (possibly live) GAMEPLAY
Alright, so first of all, I'm having trouble understanding most stuff because the item descriptions are huge and often go off screen. Next, I...wait...poison? Oh no..anyways, there's a book in this locker, here you go, Mr Read Rip Off! Now time to buy a cookie! (really? THATS THE SOLUTION?) So...wait, I have to put poison in the water....then I put the cookie in- what? Anyways, of to the teacher's lou- wait why does it want to me to give him the coo- HOLY CRAP! Uh....so now I just take the key and exit? *sigh* fine. It's not like I have more to go since like, 40% of the rooms and maps are unenterable/useless. *goes to right exit* WHAT DO U MEAN IT WILL ONLY WORK ON THE LEFT EXIT!? If you didn't want to use another exit, why didn't you uh, block it, or restrict it in some way? :/
- FINAL THOUGHTS
Well than, I think it's safe to say this game isn't the best. I also nearly forgot- the music is so repeative and loud my ears are gashing. If you'd like to waste about 4 minutes, this is the game for you. Overall, I really hope these tips helpped- oh wait, the creator is inactive. Well, I hope it helped anyone else who has thoughts of making a Riddle School fangame. :P So, yeah, I don't really lives up to be a Riddle School fangame, but it had potential. But because of what I'd said over the last 3,000 words, something tells me this rating isn't gonna increase soon.

not too bad. I can see you took inspiration from riddle school which took inspiration from picos school and this actually inspires me to make my own game like this of my school. congrats

It's good....but I think you've stole an idea of this story from Riddle School Series and Pico's School. But, okay, I will accept with that.

Good I guess

Well I could say this is a decent game but it still sucks. The game is to short. Plus
it was pretty much stolen from Jonbro's riddle school. His game was made in 2006
and your game was made in 2008. That's a possibility that you stole it from Jonbro.

LOL i killed the teacher

it's intreasting but the riddle seires is just like it. Poisin cookies now i have to stop eating those
