Your in-game phone is one of the most feature-packed systems in Gakuran. Pressing the phone key opens a full smartphone interface loaded with apps for messaging, socializing, making money, listening to music, taking photos, and even playing mini-games. Since Gakuran is a social roleplay experience at heart, learning your phone is essential to connecting with other players. Here is a complete guide to every phone app in Gakuran.
Social Link
Social Link is how you add other players, working just like the contact-sharing feature on a real smartphone. When two characters stand near each other, both open Social Link, hold their phones together, and confirm the connection. Once linked, each player is automatically saved to the other’s Contacts. It is the primary way to build your network in Gakuran, so it is usually the first app you will use.
Contacts
The Contacts app stores everyone you have connected with through Social Link. From here you can open a person’s profile, send them messages, and access other contact-based features. Contacts are organized for quick access so you never have to search for a friend manually.
Messages
The messaging system lets you talk to any contact regardless of where they are on the map. You must first add someone via Social Link before you can message them. To send a message, open your phone, go to Contacts, pick a person, hit Message, and type your text. All conversations are saved to your message history and can be revisited anytime.
Dial and Recents
The Dial app works like a standard phone keypad for placing calls to people in your Contacts. When you call someone, they get an incoming-call notification and can answer or ignore it. The Recents app keeps a history of your latest phone activity so you can quickly reach people you have recently talked to.
Yen
Yen is the game’s digital payment app, letting you send and receive money instantly, much like a real mobile payment service. When you set it up, you choose a unique Yen Tag that acts as your payment username. Other players can search your tag to send you money, and the app keeps a transaction history of all your payments and receipts.
Indeed
Indeed is the main way to earn yen. Modeled on real-world job platforms, it lets you browse job listings, apply for positions, and work shifts for pay. Different jobs offer different wages, schedules, and work environments. Once hired, you travel to your workplace and complete shifts to earn money, making Indeed a core part of progressing your character’s lifestyle.
Mixi
Mixi is Gakuran’s social media platform. You can create posts, browse a community feed, and interact with other players’ content by liking and replying. It is a great way to stay connected with the wider community and share your in-game experiences.
Music
The Music app turns your phone into a portable music player. Browse the library of available tracks and select a song to play while you explore Nishikata, hang out, or fight.
Camera
The Camera app lets you take photos anywhere in the world. You can switch between the back camera to capture environments and other players, or the front camera to take selfies of your character. Photos can be saved through Roblox’s capture system.
Games
The Games app is a built-in arcade of classic mobile games you can play right from your phone without leaving the world. The library includes familiar hits like Snake, Flappy Bird, and 2048, plus other retro-inspired titles, with more possibly added over time. It is perfect for passing time while you wait for a friend.
Getting the Most Out of Your Phone
The phone ties the whole social loop of Gakuran together: use Social Link and Contacts to meet people, Messages and Dial to stay in touch, Indeed and Yen to earn and move money, and Mixi to plug into the community. Once you are comfortable navigating these apps, the everyday life side of Gakuran opens up just as much as the combat.
