Did you mean oldbroad Mad? Thanks for that tip because I think I thought of trying that but didn't or maybe where I tried it there was nothing to see. Or are you in a wrong subject here? Must be the birthday thing. ![lol lol](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/lol.gif)

Sorry oldbroad. Yes. I was intending the "tip" for you ![woozy woozy](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/woozy.gif) [ But blaming the "birthday thing" sounds like a good excuse - even if a naughty one - for the lapse ![wink wink](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/wink.gif) ] >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Hi Marian

I forgot to mention that this right-click feature also works on the Load Game screen. I don't know why I didn't re-read the game booklet. Then I would have known about the right clicking I went back and read the manual (which is supplied as a PDF file in the GOG version), and while it amply covers the use of right-clicking during gameplay and in the inventory, there was no mention of using it in the Save Game and Load Game screens. Uncle Reg - only 24 save slots??? I've already used 6 I think and I'm still at the beginning of the game. The game is divided into chapters (I think I remember that there were 6 chapters in all), so that once you advance to a new chapter, you can safely overwrite the saves for the previous chapter(s). That would effectively give you 24 saves for each chapter. I'm on Chapter 4 now, and the 24 slots have been adequate for me.

I never think to look for manuals with the downloads for some reason. I don't either. I always used to look at the paper manuals back when we had physical releases.

I seldom look at them for Adventure games .... Unless I get stuck in some way .... And then of course I'm kicking myself for not having looked !! ![blush blush](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/blush.gif)

I'm replaying this game now as well. Thorsgoats and I love to quote these lines - "I think I will go now." "I'll return to my work." Samuel and Bates say these lines so many times, they seem to take up half of the game. ![lol lol](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/lol.gif) Really fantastic game, of course. I haven't gotten to the slider puzzle yet, but as I know the trick to solving it, I've never needed a saved game for it. ![devil devil](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/devil.gif) I do, however, keep saved games for two of the very long waits after a couple of characters tell Samuel to come back later. I remember the second one taking about 40-45 minutes, with nothing to do in the meantime but run around to all the areas several times and re-read some of the family history just to pass the time. ![crazy crazy](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/crazy.gif) I've just gotten to the part where (very mild spoilers for the entire trilogy) Samuel visits Murray in the pawn shop. Murray is a very different character here than he is in Black Mirrors 2 and 3. ![grin grin](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/biggrin.gif) The original is still definitely my favorite, though I loved the sequels as well. I'm still avoiding the newest game, as I'm hoping a patch to fix the controls will be released at some point. If not, I'll power through it one of these days. ![smile smile](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/smile.gif)

Having completed and very much enjoyed BM1, I've now started BM2 A much slower moving beginning to this one and the setting is nowhere near as atmospheric but I expect it will fire up soon ![yes yes](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/yes.gif) Got to !! It IS a Blck Mirror after all !! ![lol lol](https://www.gameboomers.com/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/lol.gif)
