NFT platform Candy Digital has released another “Stranger Things” minigame for Netflix, where players must solve riddles to earn NFTs of the stars of the show.But some fans aren’t happy.

The “Stranger Things”NFTsare 11,111 unique tokens on Candy Digital’sPalm blockchain—anEthereumlayer 2 sidechain—that signify ownership of one of five digital posters.

Back in April, Netflix quietly teased the NFT partnership with hidden messages in the Season 4 trailer for its hit original show.

Last week, about 4,700 players earned a free NFT poster of Eleven, the show’s lead played by Millie Bobbie Brown, by playing a mystery game involving a virtual “Stranger Things” laboratory.

Done doing my third puzzle/artwork through Netflix x Candy partnered website in one of the Stranger Things Lite Brite probably this is the hardest one I have accomplished. Hope y'all like it.#StrangerThings4#StrangerThings@netflix@Stranger_Things@CandyDigital

Crypto Toy Coin
This piece represents the creation of a new "Visual Toy", a term created by me to encompass my unique and exclusive GIF-Arts. The latter, "Crypto Toy Coin" is the only and first in the cryptocurrency theme. In it I represent the fast-paced world of finance in the virtual environment, the Internet with its universe of colors and infinite visual impact, an optimistic and exciting future, a world of possibilities that opens before us. These "Visual Toys" invite you to imagine, that is their function, that is the game. The ultimate goal is that you imagine, that it is you who gives it meaning. There are no good or bad answers, just the projection of each one. I've only created the trigger, the piece where you can project your imagination and let it fly.
