Bandersnatch est présenté comme un film interactif. Un bref tutoriel, spécifique à l'appareil du spectateur, explique à ce dernier comment faire des choix. Il a ainsi dix secondes pour prendre une décision, ou par défaut une décision sera prise à sa place. Une fois une « partie » terminée, le spectateur a la possibilité de revenir en arrière et de faire un choix différent. La moyenne de visionnage est de 90 minutes, même si le chemin le plus rapide permet un visionnage de 40 minutes. Il y a 150 minutes de film divisé en 250 segments. IGN rapporte que selon Netflix, il y a cinq « grandes » fins, avec des variantes à l'intérieur de ces dernières. Quand le spectateur a atteint une de ces fins, le film interactif donne au joueur la possibilité de refaire un dernier choix crucial afin d'être en mesure d'explorer d'autres segments. Dans certains cas, le spectateur peut atteindre le même segment de plusieurs façons.
