  Seeing how they treat their own shows, cancelling them willy nilly. Really doesn’t give me hope in them getting game series going

    I was about to say, this sounds like a classic tax dodge. Start developing a ton of games, drop 8 of them come next year to make the charts look nicer for the shareholders, maybe release 1 game 3 years down the line.

  Wait, what?! 😂 Okay, so is this gonna be a cloud based thing, because how stadia was so successfull? Or are these going to be downloaded apps? Or just stand alone choose your own adventure like black mirrors bandersnatch thing.

  I'm genuinely so confused what this means or will eventually look like.

    They have games for Android already and you actually download the games; you don’t stream them. Notice that this article doesn’t specify whether these 10 games are for mobile or PC, though…

      Orly?! I had no idea! And also... no interest in actually looking into those games or buying Netflix again.

      Thanks for the clarification! ♥ 💕

    Stadia was successful. Everyone just hated on it for some reason. Didn’t get the playerbase so it was sold off. Was a fantastic service and I curse google daily

  I bet they’re all shitty mobile games.

  So…11 games? I hate how press releases like this say “over” a certain number rather than just telling us the actual number.

  Nobody even knows they have games anyways

  Are these 10 mobile games? Last I went on Netflix all they had was mobile garbage.

    There’s some you play on iOS already. For example storyteller and Into the Breach. It basically checks that you have a Netflix account and then you can play the game.

    They have games on Netflix already that you play using your TV remote. They’re basically just choose your own adventure books, but in a TV show/movie format instead of a book.
