After many years, our hero, the nobleman Samuel Gordon, returns
to his dominion in England where he had spent most of his life.
His memories of long passed events prevented him from returning
here for long twelve years and that is why he had long ago given
up all his property in the manor belonging to his ancestors.He was
firmly hoping that he would never again have to come back to the
place that would bring back dark images of the past to his memory
and that would exacerbate his soul with a burning knife of guilt.
He would probably spend the rest of his life as far as possible
from the Black Mirror manor if it had not been for his fate that
once and for all diverted his future from the path of oblivion...
With feelings of uncertainty, gaining in intensity as he was approaching
the border of his dominion, he returns back today in order to revere
the memory of William Gordon who had meant so much for him. That
is perhaps also why he, as the only one, refuses to believe that
William's death was just an unfortunate incident. He begins to be
intrigued by the last days of William's life. From reading William's
diary and from other indices, however, he is soon to find out that
there were other facts behind William's death. On the background
of a seemingly peaceful life at the ancient Black Mirror manor,
a circle of mysterious deaths and unexpected events begins to spin
around. So far, however, he is not aware that it is himself who stands in the center
of all these events...
First works on the Black Mirror horror adventure
began in January 2000. Since then we have spent thousands of hours
working together on this demanding project so that we could tell
you as best as possible our dark story of Samuel Gordon and thus
enable you with a powerful experience in playing the game.
The game scenario is divided into six long chapters in which you
will gradually explore over
150 locations. Besides others you
will visit a medieval underground temple, a mental hospital, a
cemetery and other mysterious locations, in which you will live
through the chilly story of Samuel Gordon.
We realize that the scenario and story are the central components of each good game,
namely in the adventure genre. This holds especially true with
a horror story and that is why we have paid a special attention
to the scenario from the very beginning of our work. Owing to
a complex plot of the entire game we are not going to reveal more
from the story since we do not want to deprive you of your experience
from the game.
Besides a quality story we have also paid a considerable attention
to all the other components and aspects of the game since the
entire elaboration is crucial for the overall atmosphere of the
game. The graphic design of each picture starts from drafts on
paper, from which it is transferred into the digital form and
elaborated into minute details. The quality of sound is ensured
by hundreds of meticulously chosen and arranged sounds proving
a studio quality. The atmosphere of the game is also enhanced
by orchestral scenic music, vividly responding to momentary twists
of the plot.
Dialogues represent an equally important component of the game.
For your better idea, the texts now take up
200 pages of text.
All the dialogues are naturally manifold, sometimes
providing a possibility to influence the behavior of your own main character.
