    The original White Day is one of my favourite horror games. It’s clumsy and clunky, but it had the right energy and really had a lot of creative ideas going for it. I am disappointed that White Day 2 is relatively unambitious and struggles to have its own identity. It’s still an awful lot of fun and I much prefer it to the big action “horror” games that want to be action shooters with ugly monsters. While I found White Day 2 to be an admirable commitment to a more classical form of horror, I was just hoping for something with a little more impact behind it.

    There are also some thrilling chase sequences that help to change the tempo of the game, as well as sections where you’ll explore a large part of the school while being stalked by an enemy: a police officer, a ghost, or something even scarier. Unfortunately, it’s often in these sections where the game falters. Movement is slow to make you feel vulnerable, but clues are spread so far and wide that you can often feel directionless and grow frustrated as you wander the dark hallways of the school while you search. Add to this some clunky transitions between gameplay and interactions, texture pop-in, and frame rate drops, and the spooky atmosphere crafted through brilliant sound design is stripped away.

    White Day 2: A Flower That Tells Lies tries hard to live up to its predecessor but doesn't reach the same heights. Repeating scares and infuriating pursuers keep it from standing out from a crowded genre. It's not all bad, though, as the game's puzzles and fantastic location and world-building will keep the most hardcore fans from sticking with it through its dozen endings, but for most, it will be a one-it-and-done-it affair.

    White Day 2: The Flower That Tells Lies is far from being the worst horror game I’ve played. But it’s nowhere near the best. Offering little more than truncated stories within self-contained chapters and gameplay mechanics that feel inferior to those within its predecessor, White Day 2: The Flower That Tells Lies – Complete Edition is a disappointing sequel for those of us who have spent years waiting for a White Day sequel.
