South Park: Snow Day - A Game Review

As I delved into South Park: Snow Day, I found myself frequently pausing the game and reaching for my phone. This is what we in the world of critique refer to as a red flag.

The latest video game adaptation of the long-standing, beloved, and sometimes contentious animated comedy, South Park: Snow Day, is now available on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and PC.

Technically, it's the sequel to 2017’s The Fractured But Whole and 2014’s Stick Of Truth, two prior South Park 2D RPGs that I found enjoyable despite not being a fan of the main show.

What made these games enjoyable was their fun gameplay, humorous writing, and the fact that they were a near-perfect representation of the animated series. South Park: Snow Day, however, is not quite up to par.

A Lacklustre South Park Adventure

Snow Day does not capture the essence of the show. The 3D design looks cheaper and cruder than the papercraft style of the series. The game's premise, a large blizzard hitting the town, results in a monotonous landscape of snow and ice.

The gameplay is also not as fun as the previous games, replacing the reliable 2D RPG mechanics with a third-person shooter and melee-based combat system that revolves around cards and power-ups.

Snowball Fight Rules and Repetitive Combat

The kids, split into different fantasy factions, have developed a series of snowball fight rules. Battles revolve around these rules, with cards that can be unlocked, upgraded, equipped, or destroyed during each chapter.

Unfortunately, the combat feels imprecise and dull, making each encounter more of a chore than a challenge.

Chapters: Too Long, Too Short

Each chapter, taking about 50 to 60 minutes to complete, feels too long to be bite-sized but too short to develop an interesting build. With only five chapters in the whole game, you'll be playing through them a few times, either alone or with other players online.

Lack of Humor

Perhaps the most disappointing aspect of South Park: Snow Day is its lack of humor, both good and bad, which is a key element of the original series.
