grinding

Players express frustration with the grinding aspect of the game, particularly due to the inability to pause while managing classroom construction and the frequent need to manually encourage teachers to engage in their duties, leading to a tedious gameplay experience.
- “My main big concerns are not being able to pause the game when building a new classroom and the fact that teachers too often don't want to teach; they prefer to stay in their staffroom, and you have to continuously drag them out, which becomes very tedious.”
