Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe titular Game Child is a real device, released as a cheap knockoff of the GameBoy. They aren't as rare as depicted in the film, however. Shortly following the film's release, Stuart reviewed a real one.
- GoofsOne scene in the movie is supposed to be set in 1991. However, all the vehicles seen in the background were all produced after 1991.
- Quotes
Chef Brilliance: Chef Brilliances Almost Lasagne-like food products. Only in colour.
- Crazy creditsKey Grip: Sorry. Actually we couldn't afford a Key Grip for the film so the rest of the crew had to carry all the grip equipment themselves. So anyway, we Wikipeded "Easter Egg", and the term was coined way back by someone at Atari because a game designer hid a secret message in a game. So it's like hunting for a hidden Easter egg. Huh.
- Alternate versionsThe 2020 re-release of the film cuts a shot of a met police lantern and a 45-second sequence with stormtroopers.

Ignore the Rating
Hello!
Ignore the rating, it is incredibly low for this film. (Note that before it was released to the general public rather than being solely on YouTube, the rating was 7.5/10).
Ashens and the Quest for the Gamechild a very clever, camp, fun film- something you would watch on a Saturday morning. It is incredibly light-hearted, but keeps its qualities high up there. Sure, the acting is a bit camp, but in a good way: it fits in with the film overall. There are plenty of references to episodes of Ashens (who, in case you live in Canada, or some other remote place, is a well-known YouTuber). There are not only references to past episodes, but other films as well, and keeps the humour of the references in good taste.
Long story short, if you have an hour and a half to spare, go watch this. It's good entertainment, and definitely deserves its previous rating of 7.5/10, rather than a measly 6.3.
On a final note, go take a look at Ashens' videos. You won't be let down.
