Once you start, you can never stop.
A troubled teenage girl, Stacy awakens after disturbing dreams. After receiving a flirty text from Matt; a guy she’s been dating, Stacy hurries out the door for her therapy session. Her psychologist advises her to start writing down her dreams to release her anxiety. Seeking normality, Stacy invites her friends over to her house, Emma and Jess, who convince her to access a spirit board app. Unexplained events occur. Unknowingly, the app starts to consume her. Begging her friends to help her, she convinces them to play the Shall We Play? game again, this time awakening the spirits of sisters who died years ago. She awakens in a psychiatric hospital with no recollection of what happened. During a visit, Emma tells her that Jess has started to date Matt. Stealing Emma’s phone, Stacy accesses the app one last time to enact her revenge on Matt and Jess.
“’Shall We Play?’ manages to stay grounded in even its most puzzling moment’s thanks to Matreya Scarrwener’s strong turn as Stacy. Scarrwener displays a wealth of talent and range as she carry the bulk of the film on her shoulders.” – Cinema Axis
“To the credit of screenwriters, the film’s sculpted as a commentary on our reliance to technology; There are some solid aspects, especially with Stacy’s thoughtful characterization.” – FilmCraziest
“Keeping the audience off balance and uncertain which way is up, ‘Shall We Play?’ pushes buttons and doesn’t take the easy way out.  We are made uncomfortable and even frightened by what we see. It is often chilling in all the right ways… and the chills don’t go away so easily since the film is rooted in reality. Recommended.” – Unseenfilms.net
