Good game

The gameplay itself is good and recommendable. There's some polish issues to be addressed, especially when it comes to poorly explained elements, badly structured English, and UI shortcomings, but the gameplay itself is good enough to readily make this a "Recommended" despite those issues.

Or it would be, if the game wasn't a complete disaster of terrible optimization, game bugs, and game crashes. Those are all bad enough to make it a Not Recommended- except, thankfully, the game does have auto-saving. Thus far I haven't had any bugs persist through a relaunch and game load, and several even fix just by going into the menu and back into the save, so the existence of auto-saving marginalizes the stresses of the game to the point where it's readily back up to being "Recommended". I do have concern over what'd happen if a save file does ever end up retaining a game-breaking issue, so I can't guarantee the game won't ever lose you hours or tens of hours of effort, but thus far none of the stresses have been persistent enough to fully undermine the recommendability of the game.

As far as the gameplay itself, it's pretty much what you'd expect based on the previews. Place rooms, manage students. While woefully incomplete for any specific (eg, event result, confusing card text) clarifications, there's still enough fan information online to help work through general gameplay questions or strategies. With that as a supplement, the gameplay's pretty smooth and relaxing and enjoyable, creating a good "just a bit more" vibe.

Hogwarts simulator. very fun!
