Scenario

Original stories set in the worlds of iconic video games are featured in this animated anthology series. Video games have made a huge leap onto the screen, and we're celebrating the genre with a closer look at more than 50 video game adaptations in film and TV. Clive Standen will reprise his voice role as Demetrius Titus, the protagonist of the video game Space Marine 2.

A few great episodes aside, Secret Level feels like a monument to mediocrity. The writing is painfully average, dragging the entire show down despite the undeniably impressive visuals - though even those feel like reheated leftovers from a decade of superb video game cinematography. Honestly, what is this show trying to do or say that hasn't been done (and done better) by video game marketing over the past 10+ years?

Where are the big names?

The lineup of titles is confusing. The lack of heavy hitters screams one thing: the developers either didn't want to be a part of this train wreck or were waiting to see if Season 1 could stick the landing. Spoiler alert - it wasn't.

The short-form storytelling seems to have completely eluded the creators

What should have been tight, impactful, and memorable feels disjointed and uninspired. Variety called it "an uninspired slumber," and for once, Variety wasn't harsh enough. Secret Level is proof that flashy visuals can't hide a lack of vision, heart, or originality!
