Introduction

Ready for some late-night school shenanigans, filled with supernatural scares and the thrill of trying to impress a crush? Welcome to White Day: A Labyrinth Named School, where our protagonist, Lee Hui-min, takes on the ultimate challenge: trying to return a diary and get a date while escaping ghosts and spirits that are decidedly less interested in romance. Grab your pens, because this game is a 'write' of passage.

Gameplay

As you dive deeper into Yeondu High School (which may be better left unexplored), you'll need to help Lee Hui-min solve puzzles and avoid powerful spirits. It's like a horror version of a scavenger hunt on steroids. Your inventory management is a big deal here-think of it as Tetris for horror items. You'll collect useful items while trying to avoid being caught by janitors who are actually supernatural beings, and yes, they are about as friendly as a group of hungry zombies. With limited saves and no health regeneration, you'll either grow to love your school or actively dread the thought of returning to class the next day. The game also throws in eight different endings, depending on your in-game choices, so every playthrough is a new learning experience-just like school, but a lot scarier.

Graphics

The graphics are like a fresh pair of sneakers compared to the original 2001 game-cleaner, sharper, yet still retaining that eerie charm that can't help but make you feel a little uneasy. Shadows stretch across darkened hallways, creating a sense of dread that feels almost palpable. Forget jumping into bed with your light on; this game is perfect for those nights when you want to test just how brave you really are. The design of the characters is commendable as well, managing to strike a balance between appealing and horrifying.

Conclusion

White Day: A Labyrinth Named School provides an entertaining chill, full of twists and turns that can get your heart racing faster than an unscheduled fire drill. While it may not rival the mega titans of survival horror, it has its own quirks and charm that cater perfectly to the fans of the genre. This game might just be the next late-night adventure you didn't know you were craving. So grab a snack, turn off the lights, and get ready for a spooky good time that'll have you questioning your own sanity (and whether or not you should ever step foot in a school after hours). And remember, if you hear a voice whisper your name, it's probably just your imagination-unless you're in the game. Then it's time to run.
