Netflix Cancels Electric State Prequel Game: Kid Cosmo

Netflix is set to launch a thrilling puzzle game titled The Electric State: Kid Cosmo, tied to their upcoming sci-fi adventure movie, The Electric State. This game, slated for release on March 18th, comes just four days after the film premieres on Netflix on March 14th. Directed by the acclaimed Russo brothers, the film stars Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt, 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 serves as a prequel to the movie, delving into the childhoods of two pivotal characters, Chris and Michelle. This engaging game, developed by BUCK Games in collaboration with AGBO, offers a game-within-a-game experience that promises rich storytelling and gameplay. BUCK Games, known for their acclaimed roguelite puzzle game Let’s! Revolution! on Steam, brings their expertise to this new title.

Set in Wichita, Kansas, in 1985, Kid Cosmo takes players through a series of puzzle adventures reminiscent of the WarioWare series but with a unique '80s flair. The narrative unfolds over five years, providing a deeper understanding of Chris and Michelle's journey before the events depicted in the film. Players will be tasked with collecting modules, repairing Kid Cosmo's ship, and solving puzzles that gradually reveal the secrets of this mysterious world.
