These last couple of days I am playing the 2017 Black Mirror game
for the first time.
When it came out all the negative reviews were the reason for
me not to buy the game.
I have to admit that part of the negative criticism was deserved.

Controlling the main character for example, or the fact
that one can die (more than once) in the game.
(When stuck: Look at the video walkthroughs on the net!)

But still one gets used to the controls (with mouse and keyboard)
The game is still really not bad at all I think
(albeit not of the same
quality of the original game)

If the designers hadn't come up with the the tricky
parts one has to overcome not to get killed, it could even
be called good.
Well worth buying (when on sale)

I think I bought it for 5 dollars or so on Steam

Glad you somewhat enjoyed the game. The original 2014 game was such a memorable and fantastic game I never really understood a remake.

Thanks for your thoughts about the game FlyingDutchman42! I bought the game in 2018 and I think I meant to play it as I replayed the 3 original games that year but I must have forgot or something. I still haven't played it.

Thanks so much for your thoughts on the game, Rob. I have been debating as to whether to pick it up during a sale, and I think now that I will. As long as it has some redeeming features, I would be interested in playing it.

I think the game was quite decent, even if the original game is much better.

I bought this when it was first released and gradually forgot all about it !!

[Probably because many people didn't seem to be very impressed at the time.]

So I'm glad glad to hear you weren't one of those Mikael thumbsup

Hello Everyone,

I do not know if saves from the game (played on Steam)
can be downloaded, but if they can than I would
be more than willing to send save games to those who are stuck.
(as far as I myself have gotten so far of course)

Am a little stuck myself right now (in chapter 4 or was it 5?)
A tricky Key! shocked
