Infobox instructions (only shown in preview)

Le Joueur du Grenier (literally "The Attic Gamer") is the main character and title of a web television series of farcical retrogaming video reviews created by French filmmakers Frédéric Molas (French pronunciation: [fʁedeʁik mɔlas]) and Sébastien Rassiat (pronounced [sebastjɛ̃ ʁasja]) in 2009, starring themselves.[1][2] Similarly to the Angry Video Game Nerd, which is the direct inspiration for the show, it generally revolves around retro game reviews that involve rants against games of particularly low-quality or poor design.[3]

On September 13, 2012, the channel created a new series called Papy Grenier ("Grandpa Attic"), where on the contrary, Le Joueur du Grenier talks about good video games for a period of 5 to 8 minutes per episode. They created later the Bazar du Grenier ("The Attic Bazar") channel which is including more diversified videos (including playthroughs or cinema critics). They have more than 3,6 million subscribers on Youtube on their primary channel, and more than 1,8 million on their secondary Bazar channel. Therefore, it is one of the leading French channels on the website. Since 2020, Frédéric Molas also hosts a stream channel on Twitch, named Joueur_du_Grenier, and has accumulated over 700,000 subscribers.
