    The Black Mirror 2 is a good horror point and click adventure game. This game nails horror, and by horror I don't mean jump scares. I mean creepy and unsettling environments and events that are occurring throughout this game.

    This game starts out slow for the first 15 to 20 minutes than quickly starts to ramp up. You start in Maine USA as a different character than you played in the first Black Mirror game. While in certain areas this game feels like a step up from the original, it feels like this game is almost setting up the scene for the 3rd in the series in terms of story, characters, and setting. Graphically there is a big different between this game and the original. There is also the option to hold the space bar and see all the hot spots or areas you can click on the screen to interact with. You can toggle this on and off any time during the game in the options menu which can help you out instead of being forced to look up a walk through online which is a nice touch compared to the first game.
    Make sure to play the first Black Mirror game or you will be lost when the game starts referring back to the events and characters that take place in the first game. This is a good game but I feel like it doesn't have quite the same type of dark and gloomy environments that I loved in the first game. The Black Mirror series is worth your time.    … Expand

    I must confess, this game is surprisingly good. It starts very slow, take almost one hour before the real game starts, but after that, is all worth it.
    Great story, great voice actors and lot of moments of suspance.
    The only probablems that I found are the lack of lip sync, so you can't tell if the protagonist is thinking or talking. A problem that fortunatly got fixed in the sequel.

    I really suggest to play this game, expecially if you're a fan of real good Adventure games.    … Expand

    Black Mirror 2, a horror point and click adventure game. This game made a pretty good job on creating an eerie environment and some of the events are scary too. It did not have much jump scares and moved at a fairly slow pace at the beginning. Around the middle part of the story, it started to get interesting and it made me wanted to keep on progress. The ending left me hungry for BlackBlack Mirror 2, a horror point and click adventure game. This game made a pretty good job on creating an eerie environment and some of the events are scary too.

    Overall, it got a very nice story, great voice actors and the puzzles were logical and reasonable. I really recommend this game to point and click adventure gamers that liked story filled with horror and mystery.    … Expand

    На уровне 1 части, только графика лучше и геймплей чуть упрощён.

    Quite frankly, now that the point and click genre seems to be reborn again, with quality titles like the Sam & Max series or indie gems like Machinarium, it's hard to be lenient. Even though it has a decent length, and could satisfy some casual gamers, I can't really recommend this dull and soporific Black Mirror 2 to anybody. Even to be mean.

    With too much suggestion to solve the enigma and a narration not so evocative, Black Mirror 2 tells a story without rhythm and rubs out the challenge.

    Another adventure from Germany with a fascinating story and great atmosphere, both off the beaten track of the usual fantasy and historical backgrounds. It may even be the best modern crime and horror adventure, but why did the developers feel the need for lame mini-puzzles and an open end?
