Release Date: February 16, 2023
The second installment of an FPP survival horror series, released episodically. White Day 2: The Flower That Tells Lies puts us in control of various characters, arriving at the haunted Yeondu High School to solve its past mysteries.
White Day 2: The Flower That Tells Lies is the second installment in a survival horror series, which debuted in 2001. In 2015 White Day 2: Swan Song, though ultimately the work on the project was halted. The game is episodic and was developed by Rootnstudio.
White Day 2: The Flower That Tells Lies takes place in Yeondu High School, known from the previous game. Over the course of successive episode we take control of characters arriving at this haunted place on the titular White Day (the Japanese equivalent of Valentine's Day, taking place on March 14th) to confront the ghosts haunting the buildings, help wandering souls regain peace and deal with their own past demons. Some of the playable characters are: Soo-jin, who arrives at Yeondu High School alongside her friend to solve the mystery of the tragic death of another friend, Sung-ah, who died in a fire, as well as Seo-yeon, who tries to free the soul of her father, trapped in the school after allegedly committing suicide there years ago.
The ultimate fate of these characters largely depends on our decisions. Curiously, though each episode is a separate story, each character's actions affect the others.
The gameplay in White Day 2: The Flower That Tells Lies is shown from the first-person perspective (FPP). While traversing the school we look for information we can use to explain unsolved mysteries of past events. This is made more complicated by Yeondu High School being haunted, with supernatural powers putting us in deadly danger at all times. We must avoid the ghosts, sneaking past them, hiding or running if necessary.
The visuals of White Day 2: The Flower That Tells Lies are quite impressive. The locations especially are often dark, atmospheric and detailed.
