The official game website does exist, but...under maintenance?

The protagonist in the film is a young programmer who adapted a fantasy novel into a game. And the official website of his game company Tuckersoft (Tuckersoft) also exists. The homepage of the website has only one interface that is under maintenance . If you click "Check Back Later..." (check back later), a pop-up window will display a sentence that colleague Colin said to the protagonist in the play: "Wrong path, mate. "(Wrong man).

The weird scene after the credits

Later, it was discovered that after the end of the play’s crew list, the scene of the protagonist sitting on the bus randomly appeared again , but different from the music of the protagonist listening to the song in the feature film, instead, he played a tape. The name of the game he made (Bandersnatch) was written on it, and then a piercing computer-synthesized sound was played .

Black Mirror: Bandersnatch quotes

  • Dr. Haynes: The past is immutable, Stefan. No matter how painful it is, we can't change things. We can't choose differently with hindsight. We all have to learn to accept that.

  • Stefan Butler: I've actually had a bit of breakthrough with the game. I think I'd got bogged down before, but now I can see.

    Dr. Haynes: So you finally finished it?

    Stefan Butler: Finished, delivered, everything. I'd been trying to give the player too much choice. So I just went back and stripped loads out. And now they've only got the illusion of free will, but really, I decide the ending.

    Dr. Haynes: And is it a happy ending?

    Stefan Butler: I think so.
