Synopsis by Hal Erickson
One of British television's earliest techno-thrillers, the four-part The One Game starred Patrick Malahide as evil computer genius Magnus. Determined to exact vengeance against the owner of a rival computer game company, Magnus challenges his enemy to the "The One Game" -- the loser of which would have to forfeit all his possessions, and possibly his life. The villain hardly made things easy by setting up a series of computer challenges designed to blur the line between reality and fantasy at every turn. The One Game was seen courtesy of Britain's Central Television in 1988.
