“Some gamers only play games for their story; they want an interactive narrative that they can be a part of and be whisked away by.” —TheGamer.com

Prepare to be whisked away to the worlds of games! Stories are the heart and soul of any good game, and the Level Up Film Series honors that tradition as seen in filmmaking. Inspired by our special exhibit Level Up: Writers & Gamers, these films celebrate the art of storytelling in games and illustrate the immersive nature of playing them.

Next up, 2012’s Wreck-It Ralph. Tired of playing the role of a bad guy, Ralph takes matters into his own massive hands and sets off on a journey across the arcade through multiple generations of video games to prove that he can be a hero.
