Netflix show Black Mirror has won countless plaudits for its provocative take on emerging technology, bringing its critical gaze to bear on everything from AI to augmented reality.
Now it’s taking on the world of Web3 with the new ‘Smile Club,’ the first of a range of Black Mirror Digital Experiences from interactive entertainment platform Pixelynx.
Based on the social credit score system from the episode ‘Nosedive,’ Smile Club challenges participants to navigate the world of Black Mirror and earn points that can be traded for exclusive prizes and experiences.
To earn a unique Smile Pass digital asset, you’ll need to smile to log in to the experience, then earn points by smiling, referring new users and completing challenges to move up the global leaderboard.
Black Mirror Digital Experience is a series of experiences combining interactive storytelling, digital ownership, community, rewards, and more.
