A bit short

It's a nice Visual Novel. I played it through twice. The second playthrough took me about 50 minutes, which is a bit short. Something that bugs me a bit is the strong feeling that about half the screens seem to be AI generated (you get an eye if you do some on your own rig) - the art style of course hides it pretty good, but if zoomed out pictures seem a bit unfocused and characters look in room pictures only vaguely like their closeup-counterparts, it feels of a bit... and an antagonist in the last few minutes having 6 fingers on a hand, of course. ;) The piano score is good, the characters a bit on the stereotypical side - which the games length there isn't much place for depth, sadly. The second playthrough (exactly opposing choices of the first one) showed me around 70% same content, maybe a bit more. You get some different scenes, but the overall narrative keeps the same pretty much. Obviously i did not try to get any ending.

Unreal Lust Theory

Not worth the money at the moment

Well, it runs and it vagely resemble the original games. That's it in essence. It feels more like a tech demo than anything else. "Can I port assets into Unreal engine?". Yes, dear Developer, you can, obviously. The original game is (mostly) about story. And NSFW stuff. This "port" only includes the house, nothing outside. For some reasons characters were placed in the house so you can check some animations for these characters. So you have some animation which you can activate by clicking on green bubbles and you can talk to people (which are stuck in the first minutres of the original game, more or less). Lighting is non-existential for most parts (no lighting sources of any kind) and the characters are more ore less wandering aimlessly across the house (which a few exceptions). Apparently since one year nothing has happened to this title. So if you're a hardcore fan, you might want to buy it on sale, anyone else: wait until reviews show that this title makes actual progress (and if it's only the first chapter of the original game).

Black Mirror 2

60% puzzles, 40% story

I've played the first Black Mirror more than 10 years ago, then from DVD. I liked the story. What I didn't like was the puzzles. Now I've bought this part as a sales bundle. Just played through, by using a walkthrough. Honestly, I don't think it is very much worth your time. While the first part feeled more story, less puzzle, this part feels like to story is just a frame to keep the puzzles together. You've got static backgrounds with 3D characters animated into it. In some cases the textures of these characters are really shabby (like of the second character you see when you start up the game). A minor nuisance is the inability to set 2560x1440 resolution. The save menu is a bit odd. At least a sort of switch is appearing after a while if you cannot solve a puzzle in easy mode. Voice acting (English) is OK but the volume mixing is abysmal. Voices are often to quiet while you have to put down pretty much all other volume levels to even understand what is going on. There are quick time events (QTEs), and - similiar to the first game - a very aggressive background music during such sequences. It also isn't very long. Most puzzles are also not very logical and some items you pick up are not used until hours later. The overall playtime (with a walkthrough) took me about two days (like 10 hours).
