In the vain of Choose Your Own Adventure books, Netfflix recently launched the new feature for children’s programming, which allows the viewer to decide their own story paths. While not a novel idea, the new generation of eager kids will be able to interact with on-screen characters and help in the “replay value” of shows. But this is not a solution to your kid watching the same thing for the nth time.
Currently, only one show is available, Puss in Book has the feature. Two more interactive shows are scheduled to release overtime, Buddy Thunderstruck (something I haven’t a clue of) and Stretch Armstrong, a toy I vaguely remember. Hopefully, there will be a version of this for adults so I can have Neo take the red pill and end up in federal prison.
Check out the preview.
For now, the interactive content is available on most Smart TVs, streaming media players, game consoles and iOS devices, but the company says it doesn’t work yet on Android devices, Chromecast, Apple TV or the Netflix website.
