I wanted to like this mess. It reminds me of King's game- a madcap shoestring budget series from a few years back that wound up being almost as dumb as it was fun. This... is just confusing, which can be interesting for about an episode, but then becomes tedious. The pacing is so fast, that ample details and major plot points are glossed over and the games and rules at play never get a chance to 'cure'. Not to mention silly mechanics to revive dead players drain tension and consequence that never had any time to be emotionally effective in the first place.

I suspect this is a poor adaptation of an interesting death game. Too bad.
