Movie games are video games inspired by or directly based on films, allowing players to experience narratives, characters, and scenarios from popular movies. These games often recreate iconic scenes, expand on movie lore, or offer original stories within established cinematic universes. They span genres like action-adventure, puzzle-solving, role-playing, and strategy, blending cinematic storytelling with interactive gameplay. Players can step into the shoes of beloved characters, tackle challenges from the film, or explore "what if" scenarios not shown on screen.
