Prime Video’s Video Game Anthology ‘Secret Level’ Is an Uninspired Snooze: TV Review


Prime Video's 15-epsiode antholgoy series 'Secret Level" won't thrill video game fans or newcomers with it's dull storylines and animation.

With its latest adult-animated series, “ Secret Level,” created by “Deadpool” director Tim Miller, Prime Video offers gamers and novices a new way to experience some notable gaming properties. The 15-episode anthology gives audiences a short snippet into several beloved franchises, including “Pac-Man” and the fantasy role-playing game “Dungeons & Dragons.” But despite the vastly different titles, its monotonous storytelling will do little to entice hardcore fans or viewers who know little about the various universes. Another standout is the ultraviolent Episode 6, “PAC-MAN: Circle.” Nearly all viewers will recognize the timeless maze and its titular protagonist, but the “Secret Level” take on the ghost-eating circle figure is unlike any previous iteration.
