It's kinda difficult how to describe this game exactly. It's basically Persona 3 without Tartaris.

You go through each day, (morning, noon, and evening) and try to recruit fellow students to join your school club. To do so, you have to talk to them (like building social links) but in order to make interesting conversation, you must build your rank in various and sundry topics one might converse about (just like leveling personal attributes in Personas 3 and 4). As you can imagine, this all takes time and the clock is ticking down. That being said, at it's core, CTHCC is really a time management sim, but you get to experience some nice character development and funny dialoge along the way. One could make an argument that this game might even fall into the Visual Novel genre in a round about way.

A minor gripe with this game is that the translation tries to portray the story as if it were taking place in America even though there is a shrine at the edge of town complete with its resident shrine maiden as well as numerous other aspects of the game that simply smack of Japanese culture. For those who aren't familiar with the U.S., we don't have shrines... like... AT ALL. Furthermore, it is so absurdly riddled with typos, you begin not even to question if the translator speaks English natively so much but rather, if they are even fluent in it. Regardless, the writing gets the job done and the characters are all unique and interesting.

All things taken into consideration, the "slice of life" aura CTHCC brings to the table is a breath of fresh air in a market flooded with violence, zombies, and post apocolyptic environs. Personally, for eight bux, I'm certainly getting my moneys worth out of this title. For a nice distraction from the drudgery of the waking world or even other games, I whole heartedly reccomend this off beat title.
