White Day: A Labyrinth Named School Reviews
White Day certainly has some things going for it, it has great atmosphere, the puzzles are all fun to do and the optional ghost scenes are all really interesting. But when it comes down to it there’s really nothing else going for it besides these things. The AI can be wonky at times and there will be some frustrating deaths. The story is kinda barebones but forgivable. I would suggest this game to someone who is a mega-fan of horror games, but not to someone who isn’t since there are WAY better games out there. All things considered, I think the game is just alright.
White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is one of those games you need to try in your free time. At first look, you may dislike the graphics and its characters, but if you give it a second chance, it might be able to fascinate you. However, besides having its strengths, there are some gameplay related issues which may cause you to stop playing the game halfway.

White Day: A Labyrinth Named School offers gamers an updated version of a Korean survival horror classic. The jumpscares can be a little hackneyed, and the plot a little clichéd, but the game offers a surprisingly deep and unsettling experience to those who are patient and willing to deal with the occasional bug.
Whilst it’s certainly not flawless, I actually enjoyed playing through White Day: A Labyrinth Called School. It felt like one of the old-school survival horror titles I played back in the good old days with its cryptic puzzling and eerie atmosphere, and whilst it didn’t feature any form of combat it did ensure that the showdowns with the ‘villains’ were always tense affairs – even if the game WOULD leave you frustratingly waiting for them to get out of your way at times… I wouldn’t recommend playing through the game countless times to unlock all the endings unless you’re a real die-hard completionist, but those who give White Day: A Labyrinth Called School at least one run through should be pleasantly surprised by what it offers. It won’t reach the heights of the likes of Outlast or Resident Evil 7, but it’ll certainly give you an atmospherically enjoyable old-school horror experience.
It’s not a game for everyone. As a remake of a cult classic with a reputation to maintain and loyal fans to come through for, the new White Day is a sound investment. Those enrolling blind may end up taking the withdrawal.
Korean schoolgirl ghosts? Check. Undead zombie babies? Check. If you're a fan of supernatural terror, this cult survival-horror classic is essential.
White Day: A Labyrinth Named School presents a thrilling story, the player is constantly surprised, the situations are very exciting, the chase is breathtaking, but it is very difficult in the second half of the events and confrontations that have been dominated by randomness and similar design to all the floors of the school, and also suffered from the level of the graphics that does not fit a game released in 2017.
