Troublemaker is a high school adventure where you don’t just go to class for the lessons, but to punch, kick, and find something bigger: friendship, honor – and love. Set in one of Indonesia’s top high schools, the game puts you in the shoes of Budi – a rookie with a powerful punch and a heart searching for direction.
Fighting for glory
From the first steps into your new school, you’ll realize that here, social power is not in your grades – it’s in your fists. The annual Raise Your Gang tournament is Budi’s chance to prove himself, overcome the aggressive gangs, and rise to become the unofficial leader of the schoolyard. Each fight is dynamic, smooth, and stylish, with over 30 moves ranging from gentle and graceful to explosively violent.
From outsider to indispensable
More than just fighting, Troublemaker tells a memorable school story. Budi will meet friends, confront old rivals, get into romantic trouble, and deal with “world-class” teenage problems: report cards, unanswered messages, and the risk of being scolded by mom if caught causing trouble. Humor and rebellion permeate every situation, making the journey come alive like a teen movie.
Street-style gameplay, full of youth
Inspired by beat’em up icons like Yakuza, Bully, and River City, Troublemaker chooses a close-quarters combat style, combining a third-person perspective and powerful animations. Every punch and kick is carefully crafted, providing a strong and weighty feedback. In addition to fighting, you can also explore the environment, chat with NPCs, and participate in small but interesting activities.
School has never been so real
Set in Indonesia, Troublemaker brings a Southeast Asian school space rarely seen in the gaming world. From the language, the architecture, the culture, to the way students interact – everything is built in a way that is intimate but not lacking in personality. This is not just an action game, but also a vivid slice of youth in a culture that is underrepresented in the international market.
Conclusion
Troublemaker is a place where school becomes a fighting arena, where confessions come after every punch – and where you get to relive your rebellious days with a smile and a little excitement. If you love school action games, love the conflicted teenage atmosphere and want to immerse yourself in a story that is both cool and charming, Troublemaker is a must-have choice on Nintendo Switch.
