From the start this adventure offers us a mystery that we want to solve! For a game that is made in 2003 it looks real good! Most of it looks realistic and authentic! Only the animations of the characters could have been done better! Because the main character is walking real stiff! (And yes,you can assume that he deserves it because Samuel Gordon acts like a real arrogant uppercase bastard sometimes) But I doubt it that they made the animation with that in mind! Solving problems and puzzles in "Black Mirror" can be rewarding and frustrating at the same time! Most of the puzzles are logical and certainly won't be a problem for the experienced adventure gamer! And some are illogical! You have to do certain things in order to advance without any connection to the event itself! So at first it seems that you have to wait a lot! But if you don't do anything and just wait it can take ages for something to happen! This means that you have to visit other places until you will trigger an event! All of this is nothing compared to the one puzzle that can make your head spin! And that is the "zodiac slider puzzle". This puzzle is random and changes every time you start it! (Sometimes in such a way that it is impossible to solve!) One of the most frustrating puzzles ever made in these type of games! The only motivation for me to solve this puzzle was that I was hoping for more than a decent conclusion to the mystery! Sadly I have to report that the climax will be very disappointing! You can see the big twist coming! Worse, this twist doesn't even bother to explain how it was possible only that it did! And the finale is very weak in contrast to the mystery that was introduced to us! Is it still worth your time! Well,yes! If you are prepared for the dull climax and ending and don't expect too much this adventure will be very enjoyable! This game does succeed in presenting an ambiance similar to classic horror stories! The atmosphere of this game is thrilling and chilling! "Black Mirror" is flawed but solid!
