Shrink Game Month - Shrink High

Of course, Shrink High is considered a classic and for good reason. Developed by A.S. with great art from Manzi and Hakuto, this game basically invented the subgenre and was hugely influential on future games of its kind.

You play as Chijinda You, a high school detective who is investigating disappearances around a school. In the course of his investigation, he discovers a cabal of genius schoolgirls who have invented shrinking technology and are scheming to take over the world.

The first five or six hours have basically no giantess content, focusing much more on old-school RPG combat and finding key items. The enemies can also be brutally hard at times, meaning you'll need to grind quite a lot to progress. 

I found myself really getting into the gameplay after a while, but if you aren't a hardcore RPG fan, this section of the game will likely drag for you. Once you get past that, the protagonist gets shrunk and things get much more interesting. 

There are lots of cool little secrets and sidequests hidden throughout the game and it's sure to keep you busy for dozens of hours.
