Netflix is set to release a new movie tie-in game titled The Electric State: Kid Cosmo, aligning with their upcoming sci-fi adventure film, The Electric State. This puzzle game introduces a retro-futuristic twist and is scheduled to launch on March 18th, just four days after the movie premieres on Netflix on March 14th. Directed by the Russo brothers, the film features stars Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt, and showcases a thrilling post-apocalyptic road trip across an alternate '90s America filled with massive robots.

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

The Electric State: Kid Cosmo is not just another movie adaptation; it serves as a prequel that delves into the childhood of two pivotal characters, Chris and Michelle. Developed by BUCK Games in collaboration with AGBO, the game promises a unique game-within-a-game experience. BUCK Games, known for their roguelite puzzle game Let’s! Revolution! on Steam, brings their expertise to ensure engaging gameplay.

Set in Wichita, Kansas, in 1985, Kid Cosmo spans five years and offers puzzle adventures reminiscent of the WarioWare series, infused with an '80s aesthetic. Players will navigate through collecting modules, repairing Kid Cosmo’s ship, and solving puzzles that gradually reveal the mysteries of this enigmatic world.
