Secret Level is an anthology series that was highly ambitious in its concept, but somewhat ambiguous in its execution. One of the standout episodes is about Concord, a game that was shut down long before the series was released, becoming the biggest failure of the year.

Critics had mixed opinions about Secret Level, claiming that the creators seemed unsure about whom the series was intended for. Many episodes didn't provide new information about the lore and failed to adapt the original material in an interesting way. Many found the series boring, even though the technical execution was top-notch.

This led many to believe that Secret Level would be a one-and-done show, but Amazon reported the success of the project, calling it the biggest debut for an animated series on Prime Video and announced its renewal for a second season.

A similar story unfolded with the Fallout series, although Fallout turned out to be an extremely successful show (even winning a Game Award, surpassing Arcane, which is quite an achievement). However, if a series is renewed, it must be because someone is interested in it, right?
