"Netflix Cancels Electric State Prequel Game: Kid Cosmo"

Netflix is set to launch a captivating movie tie-in game for their upcoming sci-fi adventure, "The Electric State." Titled "The Electric State: Kid Cosmo," this puzzle game promises a retro-futuristic twist and is scheduled for release on March 18th, just four days after the film premieres on Netflix.

Directed by the acclaimed Russo brothers, "The Electric State" features stars like Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt. Set to debut on March 14th, the film takes viewers on a post-apocalyptic road trip across an alternate 1990s America, filled with towering robots and thrilling adventures.

It’s Not Going to be a Simple Adaptation of the Movie

"The Electric State: Kid Cosmo" isn't just a straightforward adaptation; it serves as a prequel to the film’s narrative. This game delves into the childhood of pivotal characters, Chris and Michelle, through an engaging game-within-a-game experience. Developed by BUCK Games in collaboration with AGBO, the creators behind the successful roguelite puzzle game "Let’s! Revolution!" on Steam, expectations are high for solid gameplay.

The game transports players to Wichita, Kansas, in 1985, unfolding over five years to provide a deep dive into Chris and Michelle's early journey. "Kid Cosmo" challenges players with a series of puzzle adventures reminiscent of the WarioWare series but infused with a distinct '80s flair. Players will collect modules, repair Kid Cosmo's ship, and solve puzzles that unravel the mysteries of this enigmatic world.

The Electric State: Kid Cosmo Follows Netflix’s Trend of Spin-Offs

"The Electric State: Kid Cosmo" aligns with Netflix's growing trend of expanding their gaming catalog with interactive spin-offs. From "Stranger Things: Puzzle Tales" and "Too Hot to Handle Series" to "Money Heist: Ultimate Choice" and "Squid Game: Unleashed," Netflix continues to diversify its offerings.
