### 2/5 — An almost perfect game

*2023-03-11*

Great game, but it says the game can be played offline even though you need an internet connection to start the game. This is a single player game, the fact that it requires that is dumb and makes it unplayable if I’m on a road trip or in the country.

### 4/5 — Love this game!

*2023-02-02*

I absolutely love this game Im so obsessed with it and trying to get all the endings I usually never download games that require me to pay for them but i had heard that it was really fun and that its kinda scary and thrilling which is why i downloaded it bc I love those kinds of games but I really wish that I could play as the second protagonist Yoo Ji-Min and I don’t currently have the money to pay for it on Ps4

### 2/5 — UI Obscures Text

*2022-03-27, version 2.2.275*

It’s unfortunate that the UI elements of this game obscure text. If this game is updated often, which it seems to be, perhaps fixing that could be possible. That would be great.

### 4/5 — Really spooky! But super choppy

*2022-01-22*

I love this game! I’ve been playing it for years by now (and still haven’t finished, haha). The new optimization thus far is pretty solid but a lot of the documents are too big and get cut off by the UI. Additionally, cutscenes are very choppy and the camera jumps are very glitchy. I think that not much about this game will change, considering that the sequel is in the works, but I’ve never liked much of the dialogue. The ghosts and their hidden ghost stories are definitely my favorite part. I love the mystery surrounding the school and the people inside it, and the atmosphere overall. Only complaints are mostly some performance issues and messy dialogue (I don’t expect it to be changed, and a lot of the cheesiness kind of makes it a little more entertaining anyway). Great job, can’t wait for the second game! ☺️👍

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2021-09-27, version 2.2.265*

It’s a fantastic horror game with various story plots. By interacting with the characters inside, you can experience different interesting story lines that leads to various endings. The developers of this game really spent a lot of time and effort in creating it, but I heard that they’re facing economy challenges due to the reason that not many people knows about the game or buy it. They would much appreciate you if you play this game and recommend it to others!

### 5/5 — Obsessed

*2020-09-04, version 2.2.265*

This game is absolutely LEGENDARY. It deserves WAY more attention. I remember totally having a White Day phase, and I'm so glad I've finally got my hands on it. This game really scares the SH*T out of me but in the best way possible. I love it!

### 4/5 — Good, but...

*2020-06-19*

As much as I love White Day, I feel like this mobile app had a lot of missed opportunities. The 2015 remake of the game had so many balancing issues and this app is no different. For instance, the ‘floating head ghost’ was wildly over powered. I would like it if she stayed that way but you gave the player a really easy way to block her affects. Maybe you could use the in-game lighter to burn the ‘floating head ghost’ and cause her to vanish before she can reveal your location to the Janitor. Also the puzzles are very obscure and there is no way to discover all the hidden ghosts without searching the internet. At the same time. This app was my first introduction to the classic White Day, and it motivates me to by the PC version one day to try it out.

### 5/5 — been looking for a game like this

*2020-06-01, version 2.2.265*

This is exactly what ive been looking for, eastern influenced horror game, thank you for this

### 2/5 — Can only be play online

*2020-05-09*

How is it that forgotten memories is 5$ and I can play offline and this game is 2$ more and I have to be online, that kind of kills the game for me because what if I’m home where I don’t have connection, I like to play games where I don’t have to be online like the good old day’s and I understand there’s costumes I can purchase online but that doesn’t mean the game itself has to be play online only, if you can please change that then I will change my rating other than that it’s a great game I have on my ps4 which I can play without internet connection!

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2020-03-22*

I saw YouTubers play this game and I started to like it so I was kinda worried they didn’t have it for mobile but they do and it’s everything the 2001 version had and more it’s awesome playing it.

### 5/5 — Terrific

### 1/5 — Would have liked if Ji-min existed

*2022-12-12, version 2.2.275*

When I first downloaded I didn’t know in the future it

### 1/5 — This game iam giving it a 1...

*2020-11-05, version 2.2.265*

There’s a problem when I tried to use the code for the lock in the gym room to get the item it won’t open that’s what stresses me out like cmon man 3 dollars for this trash game that won’t let me use a code for something🙄🙄🙄😑

### 1/5 — MAKE IT OFFLINE!!!

*2018-04-28, version 2.2.265*

Get rid of the requirement to be connected to the Internet when launching the app! This is outrageous. At LEAST say in the description that the app needs Internet! What in the world!?! Make an update and get rid of that ridiculous requirement!

### 1/5 — Never connected to the Internet

*2017-12-20, version 2.2.265*

Waste money

### 1/5 — Omg r u kidding me

*2017-09-16, version 2.2.265*

There's not even a storyline you can't do anything apart from wander around and hide from the janitor it's stupid not worth the money at all! It doesn't even tell you what you have to do it's just like here you are trying to find some girl janitors are bad but other than that you have no idea what you're doing because you are literally just handed a scenario without any direction and it's just like, oh ok so what am I even doing here? What's the point? Grrrrrr

### 5/5 — Plz make an update

*2025-01-19*

Must Offline supported, I don't know why some great story games don't have an offline system and what's the point of it, what if they end up with servers being shut down! I highly recommend it, enjoy it, but it doesn't support offline, disappointing

### 5/5 — Plz make an update

I really love this game and it’s fun and enjoy it.

### 5/5 — Pls make an update

*2023-04-13, version 2.2.275*

I am really like the game but I will like for you to add the secret character yoo ji-min because it goes well with the story.And since you have white day on mobile I was hoping their will be an update of the character ji-min with her doodles and other added cutscenes to make the current story more existing and interesting for the players.

### 5/5 — Interesting game

*2022-09-09, version 2.2.275*

SO TRUE! Sometimes this can happen in korea schools when you go to Korea school in the middle of the night like so true this game also I love how you put us into a korean school I really wanted to play a korean school horror game and it becomes true! But the girl with the hidden face that part was SOOO COOL! Try to make more horror korean games:)

### 5/5 — 保安的灯光非常亮

*2022-08-16, version 2.2.275*

那2个保安的灯光非常亮，看着非常挡视野，还有那个自动开关门有点不好，每次开门都会卡在原地一下

### 5/5 — a suggestion

*2022-05-15, version 2.2.275*

hey!
i love this game so much and has dreamed of playing it for awhile and only just got it around a month ago, but 1 thing i really wish was added to this game was ‘Yoo Ji-Min’ she is one of my favourite characters but it’s super sad on how you cant get her on the mobile version of this game, so the suggestion is to add her to the mobile version so people who do play on mobile (like me) can get her, i made far progress on my phone and i dont want to get white day on my pc.

hopefully this suggestion can be taken into account! 
thanks!

### 5/5 — This is the best horror game

*2022-05-13, version 2.2.275*

The graphics is very good!

### 5/5 — Underrated- great for horror fans

*2022-04-13*

I love this game.  This game is perfect for those who appreciate a good creepy scare. It’s not overwhelmingly scary but just enough to keep you intrigue with the ghost stories and occasional appearances of the ghosts. If you like horror or scary games then I would definitely give this a try.  Also, I felt like this game had so much content.  There are many stories and puzzles that keep building off the main story line. It’s great for the price!
