Netflix Cancels Electric State Prequel Game: Kid Cosmo

Netflix is set to enhance its gaming library with a new tie-in game for the upcoming sci-fi adventure film, *The Electric State*. Launching on March 18th, just four days after the film's premiere on Netflix, *The Electric State: Kid Cosmo* is a puzzle game with a retro-futuristic theme. Directed by the Russo brothers and starring Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt, the film releases on March 14th and takes viewers on a 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* isn't just a direct lift from the movie. Instead, it serves as a prequel, delving into the childhood of two central characters, Chris and Michelle, via a unique game-within-a-game concept. Developed by BUCK Games in partnership with AGBO, the creators behind the well-received roguelite puzzle game *Let’s! Revolution!* on Steam, *Kid Cosmo* promises engaging gameplay. Set in Wichita, Kansas, in 1985, the game spans five years, providing a detailed look at Chris and Michelle's early adventures before the film's events. Players will embark on puzzle-filled quests reminiscent of the *WarioWare* series but infused with an ’80s flair, collecting modules, repairing Kid Cosmo’s ship, and uncovering the mysteries of this peculiar world.
