Black Mirror’s Plaything game Thronglets is real, creepy, and essential

The sequel to a beloved anthropology TV may seem like a cash catch. Two of the same season may suffer from frustration. Nevertheless Charlie Broker liked doubts Black mirror Season 7 with Season 7 “USS Colister: Infinity” with double waxy, follow -up Star Track Spoff, Season 4, and “playing”, a science -fi tragedy that returns to the timeline of the interactive special Bandersnatch – Complete with a new gamed twist.

Was unlikely that his sensation had no matching BandersnatchViolent, choose the development of your adventure, and thankfully the broker does not try. But the re -introduction of the Grandos Video Game Programmer Colin Sandman (played by Will Poultry) provides another opportunity to the leading TV resurrection to review the science fiction dustopias through gaming lenses. In contrast Bandersnatch“Playing” is not literally able to walk, but it arrives in conjunction with a completely blowing mobile game, ThinglingsDerived from a nightmare dream at the center of the event. Both can feel lighter themselves. Together, they create a symbolic experience, which is ahead of the tie -in game, which looks like a sweet place for emerging Netflix Games.

Writing and David Slide Direction by Broker (BandersnatchFor, for, for,. 30 days of night), “Playing” focuses on Cameron Walker (Lewis Grebin), a young 90s youth sports journalist, who has been invited to predict Rutman’s latest creation. But as Sandman revealed behind the closed doors, what he has done is called a title ThinglingsCan’t be eligible as a “game”. There is no purpose. There is no victory. As Rutman explains, ThinglingsAs it exists as CD Rome data, life is, not code. Walker immediately feels the difference because he leads to a crowd of dear dear yellow people – it’s not Lemings Or Summit. When he is wandering he is playing only one thing Thinglings God is

The broker developed the evolution of the walker from a light -driven concert through flashback to Hooning Overland. In 2034, an old Walker (Peter Capaldi) is arrested on charges of an unlawful murder and presented his entire life story to the police, explaining his explanation. SLID arises backwards with a heavy metal grinder that feels in harmony Bandersnatch. Walker’s growing obsession of increasing its crowd – under which parts of gaming consoles need to be snatched for parts to create a supercomputer – with rhythm Milan plays that everything will go wrong. Viewers cannot choose the story in which direction they run this time, and the Slade keeps us caught in the head of the walker.

The smart technical turning point with “playing” is that broker and night school, an indie studio obtained by Netflix in 2021, was actually gathered to produce an version. Thinglings. The experience of handling the growing crowd is like in mind as a walker. Like this event, players start with a loving yellow boy, who needs toys for food, bathing, and toys for games. The completion allows the single threading latte to spread the buddy and more therapy, which zipped across the pixel map so that they need and question their reality. Tap quite fast – growing apple trees, place of bathtubs, construction of playgrounds and – and until they are, the number will be satisfied.

In “playing”, Walker climbs the next level Thinglings When he opens a way to communicate with his ancient crowd. They want to provide food and shelter, yes, but they also want meaning. Night School Games Thinglings You do not need to tighten anything in the brain so that the language of the choice of an emotional program can be de -coded, but the hovering soon becomes clear that they also see you as a top person.

Unlike most Life Sims, is a strong story for this Thinglings It plays in dialogue trees in which the player is given the choice of becoming a cruel or kind master. You can try to explain the love or family’s point of view, or you can become a glub and potentially lose the faith of the crowd. When it is time to discover the areas of other rich mining in the world, you can either build bridges from a nearby forest or harvest the bones of the fallen sheep, which is sick, but also faster.

In a very clever moments of it, the “game” shakes the date of harassment of the Sims to the fact that it is trapped in indoor lace houses or ladder ponds at a moment of violence. ThinglingsThe game capable of playing, as well as this gender is able to reflect its own self because it forces you to maintain the pace of crowded activity-which is so hyperactive that playing during the second screen can be a task. Black mirror – As a result, only the result can be yielded. Like a walker, I also unexpectedly found myself determined to protect these Lully lovely yellow boys when they grew up and increased and increased their numbers, and suffered from factories that were eventually made to take action on Esk. I couldn’t help, but it was mournful that our once a calm home had become an industrial barren land that was able to take action on NEWS, but I also wanted to see where it all went.

Night school did not make Thinglings Charlie Broker’s Story Story Fayes with a full -fledged surface in an attempt to fuse with a game. You can put your phone down without sacrificing sheep’s lives. But I suggest that the complete existential spiral turns on notifications. After one or two days of ignoring ThinglingsI started receiving popups from my crowd, requesting me to save their lives. By the end of the dark and the game, it is truly deepened Black mirror Fashion

Sean Crankl, founder of the Knight School founder and current head of Netflix, has tampered that people who watch and play “playing” and play Thinglings There may be some contacts between the two (Netflix account is needed to play a free -to -down game). Even those who do not get this away, but who are engaged with both the event and the game, should feel the next level of contact with their contact. Since they were built in a concert together, “play” and Thinglings Feel like two parts of the same story. “Play” sets a world and Thinglings It shakes its head in it.

Like BandersnatchThis collection feels like unnecessary-and-owned-the area for the plug-in streaming service fully with more than the clone of cable programming. At this year’s Game Developers Conference, Netflix said it would continue to host a major title on service like a Grand Stolen auto series, and would invest in the Sophie Party Games like Jack Box. But a third category, in which sports and linear TVs are added through interactive story, have so much potential. As he did with BandersnatchThe broker looks ready to experience. Whether Netflix will give its other creators the same galaxy the freedom of the brain can depend on how many people play Love is blind Video game. As Colin Rutman says at the end of the day “playing”, gaming for most people is about all the money.

Black mirror Season 7 is now running on Netflix. Thinglings Now is also available to play.
