Secret Level

In short, a pretty uninspiring re imagining of popular video game titles. "Secret Level" comes loaded down with the usual dose of the DEI, woke codswallop but what really lets this series down, is the largely uninspiring tales it tells. There's a noticeable deficit of creativity and the art of quality storytelling on offer here. Instead, this series leans heavily on CGI eye candy, dropping in the occasional celebrity actor and a vague sense of novelty, to try and carry it forward.

The bigoted, mysogynistic slop tha…

Secret Level is someone seeing Love Death and Robots and saying "give me that, but for my existing intellectual property". It was made to order and the order was a bunch of ads and promo for certain IPs, barely a celebration of gaming and it's history. It has no soul. Just to cover it right away, animation was great in all, nothing to add there, problem lies in concept itself and narrative execution. Now, there is title diversity but games selectio…
