The Black Mirror demo features a spooky mansion, nasty nightmares, and plenty of puzzles to be solved. It will please fans of quest and adventure games, with rich graphics and an involved story. Most of the action centers on the story itself, yet we got a bit antsy while sitting through long narratives to get a grasp of exactly what's happening. That said, the story is engaging and will please more patient game players. Great textures and details make The Black Mirror visually stimulating, but characters are drawn awkwardly and movement is limited (although we should keep in mind the game was published in 2003, and graphics have improved since.) Creepy music kept us on the edge of our seat, but we would have liked a way to control game sound volume. Overall, a decent demo and one that will whet your appetite for more gameplay.
I have the actual game, and I feel this demo is a good view of the game. It starts to get really twisted as the game progesses, and this is merely an idea and foreshadowing of what is to come. It's much better just to buy the game,
Cons
could be a bit misleading to those not familar with the game
Summary
Black mirror is errie but fun
Pros
Cons
Summary
I love to explore in adventure games. I think this has rich graphics and I don't understand why people complain about the voice quality. I am still working on the game. I played the demo and bought the game. Built in map is great in games and this has a map that only fills in as you progress in the game. Buy it and see for yourself.
Great Graphics For A But Makes No Sense

Summary
This is a great-looking game. The graphics and audio are superb, but the game itself has no rhyme or reason. Objects are readily located and there are clues galore, but you can't do anything with them except pick them up or observe them. It's impossible to make a fair assessment of this game by the demo, and according to other reviews I've read about this game, the full version leaves much to be desired. Don't download. Big waste of time.
Nice quality for a demo

Summary
Sounds are good, fully-featured, though cut short. Good Demo - can't wait to get the game!
