A lot of fun for in this film about a game to be won!
9 May 2021
The film centers on three friends (read: geeks) who get the chance of a lifetime when they are sired away to the home of a secluded game developer. Hijinks ensue when the developer wants to produce/ own the trio's game board but also compromise its original integrity.

To avoid spoilers, I won't go any farther into the plot than that.

But overall this film is interesting because it covers a lot of the ins/outs of developing board games, which is something I never really thought about before. It also offers the best of the dark-comedy genre between the personality of the three characters and how the "murder" unfolds. Sometimes your greatest dream can be your worst nightmare.

Excellent cinematography, good acting, and I wish maybe that the film wasn't so confined to only three locations or so, but it's a small budget film (so that's OK). It's worth watching, loved the concept.
