White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is, simply, an excellent game. If you haven’t played it yet, you should. The new wave of re-releases of it, for the modern consoles, but especially the Nintendo Switch, give you the chance to do that. So, if you missed it last year, here are your Halloween chills for 2022 served up to you.

Yes, White Day is an older game, but as far as the horror genre goes, and how it's evolved into something I place little value in, that’s actually a benefit. Given how few people have even known what this game is to date, the extra exposure that it will get from a re-release will mean that, hopefully, a new legion of fans will discover it, because it does deserve that. It’s a masterpiece in building tension and in the way that it plays within the classical approach to horror, without relying on jump scares and endless bloodshed.

It’s scary. Like, really scary. But what may be the scariest thing of all, is the fact that you’ve probably never heard of it. So I implore you to change that. Sharpish. White Day: A Labyrinth Named School (Reviewed on PlayStation 4) This game is great, with minimal or no negatives. It’s scary.

White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is a unique game, and anyone interested in it should understand what it is first. Does the game have jump scares? Yes it does. But is it really that scary of a horror game? No, it isn't. The ghost stories are fun and creepy, but the game itself is a massive puzzle with hide and seek elements thrown in. It requires a lot of outside knowledge to solve some of the puzzles, and the game gives you little to no direction when playing on normal or harder. Ultimately it is a game you want to learn how to play before you play it normally, and that can take outside research as well as playing the game on Very Easy or Easy first. Since the Easy modes give you hints and direct you where you need to be, without telling you how to solve the puzzle, they are a perfect way to start out the game.
