| Netflix Drops Interactive, Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Film |
Netflix has released its latest addition to its famed content – Black Mirror. Just like its previous seasons, Bandersnatch won’t allow you to Netflix and chill, as it tapped viewers to make decisions twisting the film’s plot.
In case you’ve been living under a rock, Black Mirror features standalone episodes/seasons aiming to challenge viewers’ mind by focusing on the consequences of advanced innovations. It will not only leave questions, but it will also try to change the way you see technologies. After all, do we really have to depend almost everything to these machines?

| Black Mirror: Bandersnatch |
Bandersnarch has elevated Black Mirror through its new twist. The film revolves around Stefan Butler, a young programmer that's currently writing a new video game inspired by a dark fantasy novel. As Butler began to clash with his own thoughts, he would also start to question reality. So, what if we’re really controlled by someone, or something? Can’t we really go back into time to change our past?

| Netflix Allows Viewers to Decide for The Film's Main Character |
However, here’s the major trick of the movie. Gone are the days when we had to shout at the screen, and said, “If only you would listen to me, none of these things would happen.” Why? Because Netflix now allows viewers to decide for its main character, as Bandersnatch became the company’s first interactive film.
Personally, I found this choose-your-own-adventure style more interesting, although I won’t lie that it stressed me out – a little.
Bandersnatch comes with multiple endings – some will satisfy you, while some won't. Hence, the movie will become addictive as you want to uncover all the possibilities. So, if you’re planning to watch this movie, better practice your good decision making, or you might mess around with our protagonist’s storyline.

Meanwhile, Netflix admitted that Bandersnatch isn’t supported by some devices such as Chromecast, and Apple TV, along with other outdated devices. Nevertheless, the company made sure that it will definitely run on TVs, game consoles, web browsers, and smartphones that are loaded with the latest version of the app.
Black Mirror: Bandersnatch is now streaming on Netflix. Hope we didn't spoil anything!
