Black Mirror Out Now on PC & Consoles
The tragic story of the Gordon family gets a new chapter: Today, KING Art Games and THQ Nordic are releasing Black Mirror; a modern re-imagining of the acclaimed gothic-horror adventure series. The new protagonist, David Gordon, must deal with the mysteries of Black Mirror castle as well as trying to find out if there is an ongoing curse on his family.
Like in the original graphic adventure trilogy, the Gothic Horror genre and its unique atmosphere of madness and psychological distress remains at the heart of Black Mirror. The point-and-click gameplay of the original trilogy served as the basis for the re-imagined gameplay, which focuses on close-up investigation and interaction with nightmarish visions that plague the protagonist of the game David Gordon.

Can't say I've played these before.
Oh man.
Can't say I've ever played any of the original Black Mirror games, but my curiosity is piqued.
@rtwjunkie, these are story-heavy, I assume?
I only played about 30 minutes to get a feel for it. Atmosphere is well done...the mansion is creepy. It might be a little oversimplified in an attempt to win new adventure game players, as most object that nigh be of interest already have a little mark. The player does have a bit more control over the character than earlier versions of the game, IMHO.
Overall I like enough to play more. It feels polished. I only quit due to already being deep into Assassins Creed Origins.
