Somewhat anti-climactic
Since I liked previous two titles in the series, I liked this one too, mainly because of the familiar setting, characters, theme and wonderfully drawn locations. I also liked the innovative aspects: Darren's increasing sarcasm and cynicism, his americanness in a secluded english village, the two-characters gameplay towards the end, the expanded lore... However, this could have been much, much better given it is the series' conclusion. The puzzles were very easy for the most parts, the minigames too, except some that almost bugged the heck out of me. The atmosphere, even though quite dark right from the beginning, just didn't work for me. I lacked the suspense buildup. It was just dark and mysetrious start to finish, very little development in these terms, and towards the end, where the darkness, mystery and action should have been at its peeks, it just all went into "spiritual technicalities" which almost completely ruined the atmosphere. Many plot sub-lines remained open without as much as a hint at what might happen (i.e. bad storytelling). In terms of the the overture was incredibly simplistic and cliché. This, combined with the aforementioned climax fail spoiled the sense of story closure. And, one more thing. Using the motifs of the church dibbling into the supernatural and sending its agents etc. is really overused, the team could have spared us this... In sum, nice trip back to Black Mirror, but quite poor as a conclusion to the series.
