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.

Surprisingly good

I was genuinely surprised at the thought and care put into this game. I was expecting it to be a shallow tie-in you’d spend ten minutes on and call it good. But it made me laugh out loud repeatedly and even get a bit emotional at the end. It takes about 2-3 hours to play through and I’ve managed three of the different types over my three playthroughs. The game devs did a really good job of anticipating all the different things people might do, and then building responses into the game for those situations.

Excellent

It’s short, but so refreshing to have a mobile game with a vision and fully encapsulated story that doesn’t try to drown you in microtransactions. I got a bit distressed trying to tend to the needs of my rapidly growing Throng population. I think the only thing that would improve it would be to unlock a sandbox version once you have finished it.
