The Gamers
Players must guide their characters through dark forests and ancient ruins in this gaming classic.
One late night in a college dorm, four socially inept geeks immerse themselves in a fantasy world of their own creation. As their characters journey through forbidden kingdoms, ancient ruins, and the forsaken wilderness, the players attempt to solve a mysterious puzzle that could ultimately mean the difference between getting a life and death. Who is The Shadow? Where is The Princess hidden? Will any of them ever find a date? And how long do they have before their annoyed neighbors call the cops?
Also now with bonus content from Gencon 2022! Watch the cast retrospective on 20 years of the Gamers here on The Fantasy Network.

While not nearly as polished as it’s successors, The Gamers still holds strong, with a decent story line, and plenty of fun along the way. It’s a lot like Portal vs Narbacular Drop.

This is the second Dead Gentlemen / Zombie Orpheus production I watched, the first being “The Gamers: Dorkness Rising”. Now that I’ve watched “Demon Hunters”, I can see an evolution in craft from that in this film after re-watching it.
Being a tabletop RPG gamer myself during the halcyon days of the late 1980s / early 1990s, I absolutely adore this production. Overall, I think it’s not as good as the Dorkness Rising “sequel”, but still a worthy beginning to The Gamers franchise.
