About Black Mirror: Thronglets
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.
