Is this random click-fest supposed to be a game? Might have been (a bit) funny for the first time or second time (Samorost, Botanicula), but it ain't funny anymore. Don't waste your time or even money on this pure insult of gaming.
I love this kind of old-school RPGs like Baldur’s Gate or new incarnation Pillars of Eternity. I was really excited about this game and I really enjoyed first 20 hours of gameplay. In my initial intoxication I was blind to certain aspect of game and ignored them, despite of they are really bad. Like short action bar, close camera zoom or stupid inventory with incredible amount of completely useful things. I thought it is fine to have tens of quests in your Journal, with NO CLUE where to go, what to do. I though this is “old school” gameplay, this is hard-core gameplay I was looking for. But I was wrong. Problem is this game’s difficulty is actually artificial and purposeless, which makes it SO frustrating after initial “magic” and enthusiasm is gone. This game is not “fair difficult” like Dark Souls or other well-designed game. Once again, its hardness is purposeless and frustrates me a lot. This is torture just for torture, with no real reason or good design behind. I really wonder how many people who rate this game so high finish it with no guidance or instruction. Long story short: first twenty hours – joy. The rest? Pointless agony.
Don't get me wrong, I love first part of this trilogy - Black Mirror. Fantastic adventure. However, Black Mirror 2 is horrible, boring and embarrassingly easy. No joy of playing this game. Still, I finished it because of respect to the original Black Mirror. The only advantage of this crap is Black Mirror 3. Compared to its successor, this game is gem.
