"Nohzdyve" is a game created by Creator/{{Netflix}} and the creators of ''Series/BlackMirror'' as a tie-in to the film ''Film/BlackMirrorBandersnatch''. In the film, it is a game created by the character Colin Ritman and, depending on which ending to the film you get, may or may not have been publicly released.

It's a very simple 8-bit game released as [[FreewareGames freeware]] for the UsefulNotes/ZXSpectrum. In 2018. Initially only found as an EasterEgg through recording and playing an audio file in one of the alternate endings through a ZX Spectrum to produce a QR code, the existence was quickly spread on the internet.
