The Quest: Helden für Everealm

A good effort, with some decent acting, creature make-up and some interesting sets, but sadly lacks any kind of humour, spontaneity and all the things that made TV series like Knightmare, The Crystal Maze and even Fort Boyard interesting and fun to watch. It's far too polished and controlled by the producers and is in no way "immersive" as they claim to be.

The stakes are so incredibly low. There is literally nothing to lose here other than the plot of the storyline. There are no prizes to be won. The contestants are therefore not much more than glorified actors that occasionally must solve puzzles - the rest of the time they're told what to say and do.

Plus there's far too much post-production work that further drives home that this is highly controlled, cheap way of getting a knock-off fantasy series that's disguised as some kind of real-life puzzle adventure game show. It doesn't know which genre it wants to be in.

I was surprised. Started of rocky but ended up bringing the whole thing in 1 day.

Yes it is cheesy but it is a teen show with teen doing challenges, you can't make it like survivor level hard.

If you like fantasy and always wanted to be immersed in a fantasy world, you'll enjoy it.

I'd pay to be able to through an adult version of this ❤

The biggest challenge of this show was to actually sit through it.

Hammy, wooden acting.

Tropes and jokes that never land.

A mish mash and rehash of tales already told with better direction and effects.

I'm sorry but i can't recommend, i wanted to like this so much, as i'm a huge fan of the Fantasy genre, but this was unwatchable.

Get a different director and try again is about all i can say.

Low budget where all the money went into costumes.

Acting is really awful, specially the teen heroes. Excuse me, Paladins. They are unproven yet.

As others said, I haver seen high school plays that were much much better.

Plot is thin as the hope of a snowball in hell.

There is almost no world building. We know nothing about the 8 teens that were summoned to boring world. At the end of episode 1 we still do not anything. There is no character building.

And it is boring. Eye glazing boring.

I am a geek who love all things fantasy. This ain't it.

In the history of mankind there have been several epic falls from grace: Lucifer's Fall, Highlander 2, Lost Boys 2 & 3. Eclipsing even the Morning Star, burned into humanities psyche is The Quest 2022.

As all of you most certainly know The Quest 2014 was an amazing fantasy competition that combined LARPing with reality TV. The 2022 Disney+ reboot was as tragic as the Two Corey's last film Lost Boys: The Thirst and a non-sequitur on par with Highlander 2.

A few details: Changing the show from a LARP competition among Survioresque candidates, to entitled young adults spouting aphorisms. The challenges that once were actually challenging and interesting, became trivial and even worse entirely faked. Character development (good or bad, influenced or not) which is a backbone of competition and reality stories was replaced by middle school acting with a bad script.

In short, I've seen it and I curse my eyes. Don't follow my path.
