Allyson Johnson The Playlist While ... The Dwarvenaut won't break any new ground in terms of nonfiction narrative, it will ideally open up viewers eyes to the fact that art goes far beyond what's painted or drawn. Rated: B Sep 27, 2016 Full Review J.A. Kordosh Under the Radar Pokorny's heart is a good one and his devotion to Dungeons & Dragons as a powerful social experiment is admirable. It's a shame the social engagement barely reaches anyone else in Dwarvenaut. Rated: 5.5/10 Aug 15, 2016 Full Review Brian Costello Common Sense Media Fantasy game docu has positive messages, drunken behavior. Rated: 3/5 Aug 9, 2016 Full Review Josh Lasser IGN Movies Director Josh Bishop serves up a wonderful documentary about Stefan Pokorny, a Dungeons and Dragons Dungeon Master who has built a business creating models for his hobby.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Frigging outstanding! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Stefan Pokorny is an artist, sculptor and Dungeons & Dragons fan who turned entrepreneur. The film delves into his life and influences as it follows the year long process to produce his greatest and most successful project yet, the Dwarven Forge City Builder. Which is the culmination of his passion for art and gaming. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
