colin had me freaking out with the PAC/Pacman stuff. And the irony of you basically playing the Bandersnatch game as stefan was developing it and realizing how the developer pigeon holes you to play the way they want you to play to their outcome with some of the choices leading to the same route was really really freaking me out.
And the Pearl ending good grief.

That PAX demon scared the hell outta me when he was at Colin’s apartment. Anybody peep when Colin was tripping on acid talking about conspiracies, it kinda sounded like he was describing this show? “Mirrors let you go back in time.” Aka Black mirrors aka your tablet/laptop/cellphone/tv screen. Too many options though man, I gave up after like 2 hours, who knows how many endings there were.
I’m with the crowd that thought he was gonna get the yambs in the office though. After that didn’t happen I’m just picking the most messed up options to end it. Cool concept but I wouldn’t do it again

That's the very Dope and unique aspect is that not only do we think we are in control while the show really takes us where they want and have all the control, Colin tells us this in the scene where him and Stefan trip ACID and Stefan also tells us this in the end when he gets the 5/5 rating and is telling his therapist he basically had to strip out all the choices leaving the player with enough choices to seem in control, all the while he keeps the control. I mean We are Stefan and somewhat the Players at the same time. Even the Netflix Choice and the Netflix mention to the therapist, he's describing to his therapist exactly what we, the viewer are doing......
I didn't think it was as messy as some are claiming, and think it hits its mark and does it well.
A lot to be consumed here........dopest scene is the Colin/Stefan scene.......dopest quotables...

I've taken the Sugar Puffs and Frostie's route once.....looking forward to mixing them.
I need to destroy the Computer a few times, and I need to Jump out the window on Sugar Puffs instead of fighting the therapist.
I fought the Therapist on Sugar Puffs and Jumped out the window on Frosties......
And I keep turning down working in the Office at Tuckersoft, I need to say yes.

Like he's alive and didn't die on the jump...
He actually has 3 other fates that are different than the first 2 I got where the fool jumped to his death. I'm not even sure which choice got me there either, I left the room with it playing and came back and the fool was in the room with Stefan as he was choppin up the Parental.

wait do you mean when you pick for him to jump and he dies and shorty starts screaming and then he wakes up in the car with his pop again?
or is this a totally different ending?

My girl and I spent about 2 hours with it. I've had a lot of really trippy endings. I view this as an interesting, unique proof of concept. I hope Netflix refines this and applies the choose your own adventure format to other series/movies

went back and saw the rest of the endings. Still would of preferred better interaction than just two choices. This format has been done for years. Black mirror could of done better tech interaction based on the media format you are watching. This would of made users have even more endings based on if you watched it on a laptop, tv, phone, etc.
The soundtrack and acting (especially from colin) was great.
My favorites are the 5 star ending and the train ending.

This is trash and good at the same time. I'm intrigued by the concept, but the storytelling leaves alot to be desired.

Thank you for bumping this thread. Didn’t know this was out. Will wait until after dark to catch this episode. Watching Bird Box now

Never mind, pulled down the blackout shades and am watching now. I somtimes multitask while watching TV/movies. I’ve only been three a few decisions but it seems as if they basically make you pick the path the writers would have gone down for a full episode and they keep replaying stuff in the process.

I"m not sure if chosing for COlin to jump was the choice selected to get me to the ppoint where COlin lived.........but the first 5 times on the first watch I couldn't pick Stefan jumping and advance the story, I had to choose Colin jumpin to advance the story,
.....but If you haven't seen the portion where Stefan is chopping up the body and the doorbell rings, and instead of it being Kitty(Colin's girl) it is Colin, and Colin goes in and talks to Stfan and sees that he has murked his dad.
......Colin is also talking to Mr Thakur(owner of Tuckersoft) right before he visits Stefan and catches him chopping the Dad......Mr Thakur actually calls Stefan asking where the game is at and Stefan hangs up on him......then it shows Mr Thakur and Colin talking and Colin heads from the office to Stefans house....
Has anyone else got this ending? If not.........man............keep trying.

Glad I waited cuz now the entire thing is available and I don't have to make a single choice.
Just watch all of these alt endings. Story itself isn't that good.

Yeah it seems like they put more effort into the gimmick than the actual story. If this is gonna be a thing, cut down on the alternative endings. Leave it to 3 at most, and focus on the story.
