Production
Genuinely revolutionary CGI avatar and virtual set design for 1992.
Acting
Patrick Moore's magnificently unbothered delivery as godlike GamesMaster.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Patrick Moore only agreed to host because his agent misled him about the time commitment; he famously couldn't play games and never learned.
The show's 'cyber-church' set design directly influenced PlayStation marketing aesthetics and the UK's entire 'Cool Britannia' gaming moment.
