On the holy night of December 24th, as the world gathers to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, an ancient legend whispers of an unexpected visitor: the Witch on the Holy Night. According to the folklore, this is the night when witches and other supernatural beings roam the earth freely, blending with the festivities but leaving their mark. In many cultures, the figure of the witch carries different meanings and interpretations. Often associated with magic, spells, and sinister intentions, the Witch on the Holy Night brings an element of mystery and enchantment to the celebrations. Some tales describe her as a benevolent spirit, using her powers to grant wishes or bring good luck. Others, however, warn of her malevolent nature, causing mischief and chaos.
Been waiting for this game for 10 yearsIts graphics, music, atmosphere and everything about the production is beautiful and was ahead of its time, considering it originally came out in 2012. Let me put this in perspective the most damning instance, you ve spent about 10 hours seeing the main girl and guy develop their relationship for a period of months, almost getting killed and trying to save each other s skin.
Others, however, warn of her malevolent nature, causing mischief and chaos. Legend has it that on this sacred night, witches gather in covens to perform ancient rituals and channel their powers. They may be seen flying through the night sky on broomsticks or casting spells under the light of the moon.

Total comments: 1It’s a visual novel, and we HEAVILY emphasize the novel portion.
Of the hundreds of visual novels on the Switch and the dozens I’ve played, all of them have had some form of interaction: be it investigations, minigames, or even just the occasional dialogue tree. Witch on the Holy Night is unusual in that it’s taking the genre name literally - it’s a 12 chapter novel with high resolution graphics, full voice acting, and no discernable gameplay beyond changing how text is displayed. It has a lot of history, inspiring fighting games and an entire multiverse including the world’s leading anime gacha game, but your tolerance for the “game” is going to depend heavily on your ability to just use your Switch as a book reader.
The story of Witch on the Holy Night is set in an alternate Japan in which magic is legal but is kept highly secret in order to prevent its overuse or abuse. The focus is on three characters - hotheaded witch / high school student Aoko Aozaki (who you may recognize from Melty Blood: Type Lumina), her mysterious witch housemate Alice Kuonji, and transfer student Soujuuro Shizuki who catches the first two practicing magic in what was supposed to be an empty park. After an extended combat sequence (which takes up most of the fifth chapter) Shizuki is taken back to the home of the girls while they try to determine how exactly to deal with this person shattering the masquerade. It is an interesting story, with the main trio of characters being interesting and unpredictable compared to their first impressions. The story can feel overly long; it’s on the longer end of visual novels I’ve read at about 25 hours (acknowledging I’m a relatively fast reader) and in its original written form had somewhere between 350 and 400 pages of Japanese text.
This is how the internal monologue looks, for the record.The other major defining future of Witch on the Holy Night is its size - it’s a hair under 20GB, and is the largest single file on my system right now including fully DLC’d Monster Hunter Rise and Xenoblade Chronicles 2. (One other comparison is that it’s bigger than the entire Danganronpa Decadence collection. This includes the board game.) This is due to a combination of every line of dialogue being voiced (Japanese only) and constant switching of “camera angles” or perspectives with graphics that are quite high resolution for a Switch game. The thought of bitmap image formats being used for this springs to mind. Most of the text is well translated; although a few typos were present, over (rough estimate) 350,000 words they weren’t occurring frequently enough to be a concern. It’s about the low end of an average rate for the Aksys/Otomate romance novels.
If you’re going to get into Witch on the Holy Night, perhaps while waiting for someone to tie George R. R. Martin to a chair long enough to finish off their magnum opus, it’s going to be a commitment. 20+ hours of either nudging an analog stick to stop the system from going into screen saving mode or jamming A will get you a well-written story that sets up a lot of things for the future.
Summary
Pros
- Doesn’t stick on one bit of scenery too long
- The core story is solid
“Late 1980s. The golden age full of brightness and spirits. The boy who came to the urban city passes by the two witches who live in the present”
Some people even claim to have encountered the Witch on the Holy Night, experiencing strange occurrences or witnessing unusual phenomena. The association of witches with the holy night highlights the duality of human nature. It reminds us that darkness and light coexist in the world, and that the line between good and evil is often blurred. While the figure of the witch may provoke fear and unease, it also represents the untamed power of nature and the mysteries that lie beyond our understanding. As the world embraces the Christmas spirit, it is important to remember that folklore and legends have the power to capture our imagination and connect us to our cultural heritage. Whether we choose to believe in the Witch on the Holy Night or not, her presence serves as a reminder of the unexplained wonders that surround us and the enduring power of myths and legends..

The animation style was unique, but it felt too chaotic and distracting at times, making it difficult to focus on the story. The dialogue was also clunky and awkward, with unnatural-sounding conversations that took me out of the experience.

The pacing was incredibly slow, and the story was convoluted and confusing. It felt like the filmmakers were trying too hard to be mysterious and profound, but it came across as pretentious and frustrating. The animation itself also left a lot to be desired, with choppy movements and unappealing character designs. I wanted to enjoy this film, but unfortunately, it just didn't deliver. I would not recommend it to others.The Witch's Altar: Creating Sacred Space on the Holy Night cndb
