"Netflix Launches 'Thronglets' Game Inspired by Black Mirror Season 7"

If you're a Netflix subscriber, you might have already dived into the latest season of Black Mirror. Season 7, which dropped all six episodes just yesterday, has been receiving positive reviews across the board. But my spotlight today isn't on the series itself; rather, it's on Netflix's newest game inspired by it: *Black Mirror: Thronglets*.

Black Mirror: Thronglets Is Based on Season 7’s Episode 4

If you've watched Episode 4, you're well aware of how unnerving the experience can be. For those yet to see it, here’s a brief overview: the episode, set in 2034, flashes back to 1994 and revolves around Cameron Walker, portrayed by Peter Capaldi. Initially arrested for shoplifting, his story unravels to explore themes of childhood trauma, obsession, admiration, and the quintessential Black Mirror simulation twist.

*Black Mirror: Thronglets* mirrors the retro pixelated virtual pet simulation game seen in the episode, originally developed in the '90s by Colin Ritman, a familiar name from Tuckersoft, known from other Black Mirror episodes like *Bandersnatch* and *Nosedive*. Adapted for mobile by Night School, one of Netflix's game studios, it begins similarly to a glitchy Tamagotchi but soon evolves into something far more existential.

Thronglets are not just digital pets; they're *digital life forms* that evolve and develop a mind of their own. Starting with a single pixel blob, you'll eventually manage a full-blown Throng, each entity learning from your actions.

The Game Is Watching You Too

As you continue to play *Black Mirror: Thronglets*, the game meticulously observes your choices and behaviors. Over time, it generates a personality assessment based on how you interact with your Throng, adding a unique twist to the gameplay. You can even compare your results with friends for an added layer of engagement.

Both *Black Mirror: Thronglets* and the episode it's based on delve into themes of memory, digital legacy, and isolation. With its emotional depth and dark undertones, the game is a must-try for fans of the series or anyone looking for a novel gaming experience. You can find *Thronglets* on the Google Play Store.
