Class of '89 will take you back to the days of big dreams, bigger hair, and the ultimate high school send-off, so break out the neon and dust off your mixtapes - it's time to create the most legendary yearbook spread ever! It's your senior year in high school, and as President of the Yearbook Club, it's your responsibility to make sure every standout moment is captured. Compete to create the most kickin' yearbook by sending your uniquely skilled staff all over the school. Assemble a nerd herd full of brainiacs, a team full of musclehead jocks, or a clique of style mavens who always look funky fresh. From the drama on the football field to the most wack after-school clubs, every righteous memory must be immortalized! Compete to design the gnarliest yearbook spread before the final bell rings. Points can be gained from clever tile placement, strategic set collection, and sweet proximity bonuses as each teacher's class is filled with matching students. Of course, trading signatures will earn much-needed street cred. Don't wig out as only the most awesomely organized yearbooks can win, and nothing is more bodacious than one that is alphabetized. Say Cheese, Dude! - Use worker placement to snap the most cringy, classic, and totally radical senior year moments to make your yearbook the best in class. Like, Totally Strategic! - Tile placement, set collection, and proximity bonuses will build a yearbook layout that's wicked awesome. ABC or Bust! - Only the most tubular yearbooks follow that all-important A-to-Z order. Mess it up, and your choice creation might just be bogus. Traverse the memories from an iconic era that brought us everything from The Breakfast Club to Saved by the Bell. -description from the publisher
