Everyone’s talking about: Black Mirror

Bandersnatch, Netflix’s new feature length Black Mirror release, is interactive, meaning viewers will be able to decide the ending. Cool, right?

A description from the streaming service reads: “In this 80s-set, sometimes morally-compromising adventure, you alone are in charge of what happens next. The journeys you go on are a direct result of your decisions.

“There are choices to be made, challenges to overcome, dangers to encounter and, as always in life (and Black Mirror), consequences to be had. Choosing wisely could lead to triumph while taking the wrong path could end in disaster — but who’s to say what’s “right” and “wrong,” anyway?

And fret not because once one experience comes to a close, you can — and should! — go back and make a new choice, alter the path of your story and maybe even change its outcome.”
