Now, when Strimmer is about a few years, he has begun to develop his own franchises. (Such is the way in Hollywood.) "For all mankind", for example, gets a spin-off series The center of Roskosmos, the Russian space agency presented in the renowned scientific show. Meanwhile, the now canceled "mythical search" has already led to one of the most underestimated platform shows.

"Mythic Quest" was an office comedy series set up in the world of video games and followed employees in a fictional game studio, working on a hit game titled, well, "Mythic Quest". Whether it was investigating the problems with games publishers, the evil of monetization or the interpersonal drama involving things such as the fight to maintain a healthy work/life balance, romance, alubemath and more, the "mythical search" was often funny, always a cordial story that illuminated the light.

What the show did so special, however, was its willingness to experiment. Creators Megan Ganz, Rob McLean and Charlie Day have moved away from the main characters once every season to shine a light in a variety of stories related to how video games can affect lives (whether it is a couple whose relationship is being tested when they create a successful game, irrevocable online). From "Mythic Quest" came a lateral search ", a phenomenal spin-off with four episodes that expands the idea of ​​the shooting show for the research as games affect people in different ways.

However "Mythical Quest" was canceled Apple in early 2025The fans still got more than this universe thanks to a "side search", an anthological play that tells different stories about the intersection of video games and random. One episode is for the artistic director of the "mythical search" game that is unable to go on holiday without his boss constantly suffocating, while another is for a group of friends who regularly play games together online, realizing that their lives are changing and they will no longer be able to do so.

What makes the show especially is the care and heart that puts them in every detail of its episodes. The "side search" could easily fall into ridiculous territory, whether it has fun with anxiety because it is so obsessed with video games or just by focusing on the negative aspects of the gaming industry and the community (eg Vitriol and manipular online, crisis crisis and so on).

Take the third episode, titled "Fuga", followed by Anamari Casper like Silvi, an aspiring cellist whose dream is to play the result of her favorite video game orchestra. However, once she realizes her dreams, she must reconcile by turning her passion into an obligation and how to deal with creative exhaustion. The result is a story that looks like nothing less than A masterpiece that is "Kiki Delivery Service".

Overall, the "lateral search" makes a fantastic continuation of the themes of the "mythical quest" community in a way that explores how we form communities through art (and the importance of the boundaries within them). The second episode, titled "Draw a List", is not for video games (technical); Instead, she focuses on a comic stroke on the "mythical quest" MMORPG that several people in a comic book store are desperate to get their hands. That episode often explores the nonsense arguments in which some people engage in "proving" their random, as well as how the fear of rejection turns into a door keeper.

Even if we don't get more stories with the primary characters from "mythical quest", the spirit of the show lives in the great spin-off series.
