Overall, I enjoyed playing this. There is a fairly good spread of questions, many of which involve looking at clips from the series. The two Hollies make entertaining enough hosts and they very much play the same characters as they did in the series. My main criticism would be that there could be a little more variety in the clips. Often you will see the same one repeated during a single round of questions, although there will be a different question associated with it. I also found the whole "trip through Red Dwarf" theme a little unsatisfying. All you see most of the time is a cheap looking red schematic diagram. It largely just serves to waste time during rounds of questions and it would be nice to have an option to get rid of it altogether.

As far as interactive DVDs go this is one of the best. The graphics are good and the the two hosts are excellent- playing both Hollys in true Red Dwarf style. The trip through red dwarf between rounds is very refreshing and should satisfy any Red Dwarf fan.
The dvd displays the player's scores between rounds, which can be a bit sluggish, and the whole game can take about 1 hour to complete so it might not be suitable for a party with loads of friends. It might be better to have an option to only play a few rounds at any one time (there are 8 in the dvd).
I played this as a viewer and my wife played it as general knowledge. Most of the Red Dwarf questions are quite challenging and most of the general knowledge questions are ridiculously easy so it's best if each player answers the same type of questions.
Apart from these minor niggles this is a thoroughly enjoyable intereactive dvd but is best left for big Red Dwarf fans who will enjoy the mix of video clips, audio clips and trivia immensely.

I have played a lot of these so called DVD games in the past and i was very annoyed by the lag and/or poor production values. So tentiveley i rented Red dwarf beat the geek as i didn't want to splash out. Apprenhensively i loaded it in my dvd player. The first thing that hits me is the production values. Being my favourite tv show i still didn't think they could of made a playable dvd, but this is it. The loading times are next to nill the range of questions for both red dwarf fan red dwarf geek and general knowledge are even, and its a genuine delite to play. The only criticism is the comments from the holly's get a bit repetitive after a few plays through however only so much can be recorded definitley one for all fans of the red dwarf and one for you non fans as well, excellent value for money.
