Description

NETFLIX MEMBERSHIP REQUIRED. Cross over into the world of "Black Mirror" and experience "Thronglets," the retro virtual pet simulation at the center of the Season 7 episode "Plaything." These pixel art critters won't just take over your phone; they could take over your life. "Thronglets" was originally developed in the 1990s as experimental software by legendary Tuckersoft programmer Colin Ritman ("Metl Hedd," "Nohzdyve," "Bandersnatch"). This isn't a game; it's a life-form whose biology is entirely digital. No emulator required. MORE THAN A PET SIMULATION Hatch and evolve hundreds of cute creatures: Thronglets! Feed, bathe and entertain them to watch them multiply. One becomes two, two becomes four, and so on. Soon there will be so many you'll call them a Throng. VIRTUAL EVOLUTION As Thronglets evolve, so does the simulation, unlocking new tools, abilities, items and buildings — and much, much more. You may be surprised by your Thronglets! Evolve Thronglets at your own risk. TEST YOUR PERSONALITY Thronglets are curious and love to learn. Your actions and choices within this virtual world teach the Throng about you — and all of humankind. Once you've completed the experiment, share your personality test results to compare with friends on social media. >> HELLO? >> CAN YOU HEAR US? >> What is care? What is love? >> What is death? What is power? >> Do you have power? >> Why do you use your power in that way? >> Perhaps it is a fault in your design. - Created by Night School, a Netflix Game Studio.

    Thronglets is about putting yourself in the same position as God. What he feels when he has to manage so many people. Eventually you cant save everyone. That’s the premise.

  • Really fun and unique

    I really liked this game, the only problem I see is that it is way too short and it is not exactly like the one shown in the episode, in the episode if you look closely you can give the throngs pizza change the landscape with rivers you have fire and thronglet screams sound more realistic and painful, as well as when lump is slaughtering them a throng even runs into water to put itself out and you can see Cameron when he looses his mechanism that he tries to put out the throngs with water buckets, the game here is very very lacking of its real counterpart and I feel like if it were to be a exact representation of the game shown in the actual episode this would be a huge hit and have some sort of constant way to do new things with your throngs

    (There might be a bit of a spoiler, I’m not too good at making sure there are no spoilers, sorry.) This has got to be the best game I’ve played yet. I played all of it in one sitting because I just could not put it down. This is probably said a lot, but this gave me a new perspective on society, especially when Throng was talking about “fixing us”. At the end, after my first attempt, I got “Poet”, and I really feel like that really describes me. (Assuming that it was telling me my personality based on my actions.) Anyway, good game! I hope to find more games like this one!

  • unique game.

  • Game is messing with my mental health

    After loving the black mirror episode, I was expecting the exact same thing and they absolutely delivered- however there’s a significant lack of ability to explain your actions which is genuinely hurting my soul, You make 1 wrong choice and they’ll hate you forever. It breaks my heart that I cannot just take LSD and communicate more effectively. This game is not for the weak.

  • very cool and well-made game

    I thought that this would be a low effort game just to promote the episode, but I really enjoyed all the very tiny details that went into the making of this game, especially the pixel art. it was also very fun to play. then I learned the studio that made Oxenfree was acquired by netflix! I’m glad they now have much more funding to keep making interesting things. very cool and highly recommend! thanks!

  • Stuck at the nuke bug

    Had fun and was looking forward to seeing the ending, but I got stuck at the nuke. Tapping the nuke just glitches the screen or sometimes comes up with an error message. Unfortunate that it's impossible to continue after spending a few hours on it.

  • WAYYYYY too much dialogue

    By Doctor_HooLock
    I get that is is supposed to be an introspective game, but there is absolutely way too much dialogue between player and throngs, especially in the uplink “level” (if you can even call it that, it’s basically just one SUPER LONG click-through cut scene. The levels you can actually play are fun, but I had to stop during the uplink stage because it was soooooooo boring.
