You can only find out the riddle of life by answering riddles until you go crazy/ get murdered when you come to the last riddle you can answer and then the next person does the same advancing one more riddle leaving a path of murdered bodies? Any one has to be crazy to begin with to go beyond the first body. I enjoy solving riddles but would not agree that being murdered just because I was able to solve the path of riddles will show me the the meaning of life. We all know the answer to that one without solving riddles/ going crazy/ being murdered - we all die at the end - the meaning is in what we do with our life. It's the same concept as the question "why is what we are looking for always in the last place we look?" Simple - we found it and therefore have no reason to continue looking. I watched this movie twice and still can't solve the riddle of why this movie was written/ produced/ directed. Adrian Paul's talent was wasted on this movie - the bleached hair was a real shocker - handsome as ever though. As one fan noted - "would watch him peeling potatoes." He is such a good actor that he is able to show an emotion just by his expression and/or body language. One scene comes to mind from the Highlander series when he took the dark quickening. It was positively eerie the way he looked right after - evil incarnate without saying a word.

As an indy and director's first film, pretty good and worth watching. I liked the photography, especially nice lighting on abandoned buildings etc. The acting was quite okay. For me it was effectively creepy and in that sense engaging.
Why was it creepy? Some of the main characters looked like they were on the verge of insanity -- the line was not clear -- and that was portrayed darkly and that is creepy for me. The characters are driven by compulsive curiosity about the riddles and such even though it could get them killed. This sort of risky thing does emerge in human nature, and we all have to learn how to deal with it. Most maybe learn to just not go there. But for others it can suck one into what ends up being dangerous games. Sometimes in life -- especially among the young -- it can looks as though we are surrounded by people compulsively playing games with each other out of curiosity that can get out of hand.
That is what resonated with me. If that was "the point" of the film I am not sure that it was well presented, so I am reluctant to credit it.
Also the sequences in the film seemed to jump around unnecessarily and I found that distracting. But maybe that was me. Still, I enjoyed the film for the photography and tense atmosphere.It was not a cliche of horror and suspense films but did have a provocative psychological element that for me was compellingly presented.
I will say that some of the characters were hoping to get out of the game the answer to the riddle of life -- the big one. That can seem corny on the one hand, but on the other there are many people who can probably relate to this the film can remind one of this. People fall into cults and causes right and left!! This game is by no means a conventional cult, though. It consists of players who do not seem to know each other face to face and is much more abstract and not held together by the usual tricks. Personally I thought that this was an interesting idea and would have liked to seen it better explored. If I watch it again I will spend more time trying to decide if there was actually more there than I caught. But right now it seems that one viewing was sufficient.

Great movie for people who like riddles and suspense. Must see! Adrian Paul is just as good as when he did Highlander.

I'm interested in Adrian Paul. He's not even mentioned in the credits. Would anyone recommend this movie for his performance?

I'm a rabid Ian McShane fan and I watch any and everything with him in it. As far as Nemesis Game is concerned, Ian is good, he looks great and I wish he had a bigger role. I don't care about anything else in regards to this movie---just Ian McShane.
