Introduction and Childhood Gaming Memories
00:00:12
Speaker
To everyone, that was like one word in three words in one. That was so weird. Let me slow down. Hey, everyone. Welcome back to Rolling Across the Palm. I'm your GM Jesse, and I've learned my lesson from last time. I'm going to leave it at that.
00:00:32
Speaker
Hey guys, I'm Ling. I'm currently playing Crash Bash 87, and, um, yeah, I think the last episode I did know how to use an N64 controller, which, looking back at my childhood, is embarrassing, because that's the console I owned. So, we'll see how much fun we have, hopefully, with other controllers in this episode.
Character Introductions and Game Setup
00:00:51
Speaker
Hi, I'm Fida. I am playing... Sorry, y'all. Sorry. Maybe? No. Maybe? I get confused. My username is Evenstar, but I am playing the Ladriel at the moment, and she's actually dark from Goran. She's changed into Dark the Ladriel, because she has a living.
00:01:12
Speaker
She's not wearing one ring, but she is. I have the one ring, so I am Dr. Landryell, but I'm currently about to do some racing. You're getting a bit emotional over that ring attachment. Hi, I'm Luke. I'm going to be playing Boulder Dash, and I'm very excited because Jesse from TikTok finally learned something.
00:01:34
Speaker
Oh, wow. Okay. Yes, I have prepped for today. So, yeah. I mean, I don't know all the ins and outs, but I know this game for most, most parts. To catch you all up, if you are just joined by this episode, which one would you?
Recap of Previous Session: Disguises and Riddles
00:01:51
Speaker
I don't know. And here it is. Last time, they spent an hour and a half shopping for disguises. Yeah, pretty awesome.
00:02:01
Speaker
And and lives and a few and the gal then they spent another 20 to 30 minutes trying to figure out a riddle Finally figuring out to go to this house to play these games Luke Lee and Vita all encountered their own keys, but the Vita was able to overcome that Thrall Lee
00:02:25
Speaker
overcame it after a while. Luke gave in and ended up playing the FIFA game winning, obviously, he got through it. Then they decided amongst themselves that Vida would take on the next game and she went in and did Super Smash Bros and won that game with the help of these guys on the controllers.
00:02:47
Speaker
But then with that, she rolled a natural one as she approached the key, the new key. The key then brought her to the new door, which I did give a glimpse of its racing.
Vehicle Selection Challenge: Strategy and Surprise
00:03:00
Speaker
So she entered the room without any consultation or any of that. So that is where we're at now. And Davida, instead of being kind and allowing you to pick your vehicle, you have to roll a D12.
00:03:17
Speaker
Wow. You have a battleship. Tank. Yeah, tank. Submarine. Yeah, it's this one. Looks like I have to count one, two, three.
00:03:33
Speaker
It's okay, I'm missing a D6. I have so many D6s around the house. Well, I hope it wasn't, like, ranked by, like, worst car to high car. I hope it was just, like, a randomized thing, because I got a one. Oh, solid. You guys keep a good time. Let's the good times keep on rolling. Come on. Oh, okay. He's like, get the crap cars in it.
00:03:53
Speaker
I'm riding a poop emoji, aren't I? No, they're just giving you a barrel, haven't you? They're just got barrels and just have fun. I will say you have the signature car. Everyone knows this car that knows this game. That is what I'll say about this. Oh, is that good or bad? You enter this room. You are randomly selected a car. And Jess is saying an iconic car. There could be another game where you're going to play, which would be amazing. Oh my gosh.
00:04:22
Speaker
But I don't know if he knows it, though. That's not insulting, Jess. I mean, fair. Is it perhaps an ice cream truck? Yes, it is. Oh, this is even better than Mario Kart. Oh, my gosh. I don't know what it is. I don't know what it is. Hold up, hold up, hold up. I think I got it. Wait. OK, zoom out. It's looks like a block, like a city block. Yeah. Yeah. There's lots of there's like a grid of about
00:04:51
Speaker
six blocks or something. Oh boy. Oh, that's cool. Things, little jewels and little like hubcaps on that. No, what is it called? Not hubcaps.
Strategic Discussions and Humorous Mishaps
00:05:02
Speaker
Manholes, right? They're not manholes. I'll explain. I will explain, but not now. I don't know what game this is. Lee, what is it?
00:05:12
Speaker
I can't say it. I can't say it. I can't say it. Especially, I would allow it usually, but she rolled a natural one. So she's just jumping straight in. I'm like, no, you have no time to text. You are literally going in. Cause she rolled a natural one and she's dark Galadriel. Can she have like a red nose appear and her hair go on fire, but does no damage? Sure. Amazing. Oh, this is even better. What is this guys?
00:05:40
Speaker
So Davida. Yeah. You enter. I'm going to actually roll. I'm trying to think of a way to like ask if I if I know out of curiosity. Just private message Lee. Private message Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee
00:06:05
Speaker
You directed it to me? No, it says to Luke. Not to everyone. Lee to me. Okay, don't read it. Too late. I don't even know what it is, though. Okay, good times. Good job. All right. Well, you private message me anyway. Well, I'm really, really private message. I think he sent it to everyone, but it's no, he sent it to me. You want to know what he wrote? Because Luke, the game is Twisted Metal and she is Sweet Tooth.
00:06:35
Speaker
Yes, that's it. That's it. We won't tell you who Sweet Tooth is because you might be like, I refuse to play. And I've never heard that. I've never heard of twist, Twisted Metal. So that's so funny. Oh yeah. I'm going to put some Twisted Metal music on in the background now. I love, I love it that it's like perfectly planned that happens. So does the ice cream truck go really slow then? I just want to play. No.
00:07:00
Speaker
Okay, good. No, no. And especially this is Twisted Metal, the original. So it's pretty standard. There are some perks other cars get, but it's pretty standard. Can I throw ice cream at them? No. You will learn a few things about your car, but you have to roll inside.
00:07:21
Speaker
okay oh that clown no i don't want to be a clown let's oh no no don't make me be that unfortunately you're looking oh you rolled it no i'm going to tell you everyone in this universe who's driving in this race are not nice people davita
00:07:40
Speaker
I don't want to be a scary clown. It's all right. I thought I was like Rudolph and he said, I had a red nose, but not a flaming clown scary mask face. Yeah. But I'm trying to think if, if any of these characters, you could just pretend to be nice. I think needles is your best. Yeah, maybe. He's great. I thought I was going to be a happy, lucky ice cream truck.
00:08:10
Speaker
Happy is debatable depending on what angle you look at it. Let's be honest. Oh, yeah. Yeah, you can make them happy, you know.
00:08:19
Speaker
Yeah, 100%. So might as well just switch it to another one, you know, make one. I was thinking because as soon as we thought it was Mario Kart, and then it was like, iconic vehicle. I was like, okay, so it's either going to be like, twisted metal, or it could be Carmageddon. But I don't think just did you play Carmageddon? I did not play Carmageddon. So Carmageddon would have yet she would have
00:08:41
Speaker
Divita would just be like, I lose this game. She would not play that game. Crazy Taxi. Crazy Taxi would have been insanely good. See, this is why. Sorry, I should have set this up really good. We're giving Jess all these really cool ideas for more games to play. Ready, play or what? It's like, guys, you want to get all the keys? Nah, we just want to play video games inside a video game and just get all the lives so we can never die.
00:09:06
Speaker
You know, that first came out in 1995. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. Really? I never heard of this. Oh,
Reflecting on Gaming Challenges and Strategies
00:09:13
Speaker
because we never had a PlayStation. That's why. There you go. Or maybe we did at one point, but not for very long. Also, I imagine it's one of those games that you, if you ever even walked into a GameStop would overlook.
00:09:25
Speaker
right exactly yes the cover is basically a flaming ice cream truck which screams all to the boys of like yeah this looks cool yeah no right i mean like i played my brother's games though so you know like yeah either way i would have i would have had some i've always played his things even ask him if he has twisted metal
00:09:45
Speaker
No, he never did. He had a PS, a PlayStation, I think, the first one for a little bit, but then he sold it to get something. Cool. So, Davida, you have entered this game and you are, I would say, basically, you are able to drive and shoot at this point. Yeah.
00:10:06
Speaker
Okay. That's all I can tell you. So what we're going to do is we're going to roll initiative. You are able to drive, I would say, 30 feet. I think that's an 18. Yeah, 18. Okay. As to either has entered this game, do you guys want to roll perception? Sure. I got five. You have no idea where she is. I have a 12. 12. You don't know, as of right now, as she enters the game, you don't know where she is.
00:10:35
Speaker
Because I'm assuming all the other games start at the same time, right? It will not just start at the same time, but there's just so much going on in general. Yeah. And you guys were at a different game on the other side. So it was you were on the other side of the building there. So you have no idea where she is. I mean, hopefully these guys. Yeah. So it must be we must have to go to a different observatory then just to see where she is. Hmm. Let's go. Yeah. Let's go.
00:11:04
Speaker
oh yeah so we sorry yeah we don't even know what game she's in right yeah you have no idea not until she kind of comes to after like when she's like takes her first turn then she can message you guys but i would say to be that would be probably your turn
00:11:19
Speaker
Messaging them. Yeah, because it's like a fast pace sort of thing. Exactly. Oh, yeah. Well, you said this is meta game, so I've had definitely enough time to message at this point. No, this is different. This is this is. Yeah. Yeah. Jesse actually is his him. Him sorting out his his turns and stuff is actually the rambooting up in the game. So we should be able to be like, yeah, well, the loading time on these games, man. Oh, my gosh.
00:11:50
Speaker
I'm in an ice cube track. I have red hair and a red nose. Yeah. Can't find you. Good luck. Remember the good, the best defense is a good offense. So I have to destroy the other cars then. Yep. It's been a while since I played, but I believe this is like crash pandas where you can either finish the race or just.
00:12:11
Speaker
Unless it's Death Arena. If it's the Death Arena, then basically think of it as battle in Mario Kart. Yeah, it is battle in, it's like battle in Mario Kart. Think, think, think battle in Mario Kart. Okay. Are there like powers up and stuff, power up things then? Yes. There it is. Turn to beta.
00:12:32
Speaker
okay so i see that car straight ahead of me then yeah or no okay so yeah yeah you see him yeah i could see him okay yeah i totally i will go very fast to try and like see how far i can get towards him okay you can go 30 so
00:12:49
Speaker
I love Lee going, yes, yes. It was like, oh, that's the strategy. Go fast. Yes. Yes. Because Jess has not told you your arsenal, but I could, I could tell you your arsenal. When in race, go fast. When in race, go fast. And funny enough, you're in an ice cream truck with, dare I say it, a snow plow on the front of it. Oh, nice. So. But she doesn't know that. Yeah. This is the meta games part.
00:13:15
Speaker
Yeah, I can say this. You also have a flamethrower. Fun fact, random fun fact. Yeah, random. Twisted Metal as a snowflake. I blamed up my messaging while I was singing for a while. You didn't glaze at your messaging because firstly you didn't even message them. And also the first thing, I believe it's the first game. So I can't say, yeah, you've actually got a giant clown bubble on the top of your car, which it is. But in later ones, that's kind of more fixed and is a turret and a flamethrower, which is amazing.
00:13:45
Speaker
There are special things you can get, but that's not it. Yeah, it's not that. Jesse just likes making us into clowns. My sister had to be a clown in something, and she was kind of resentful about that, and now he's making me a clown. So just... You should have rolled a one, mate. You should have rolled a one. You would have had your pick, but you know, it happens. Well, I guess it's better to be the iconic character than just some rando.
00:14:12
Speaker
There are better characters. I was going to say, I'm waiting for you to go on Google and be like, so who is sweet tooth or a history of sweet tooth on YouTube? Sorry. I listeners, I am rolling for all the other vehicles and it's, it is seven other vehicles. So yeah, they're not just time consuming, but I'm not going to be telling you every single detail that they do. They drive forward. They collect item. They smile aggressively. They drive some more.
00:14:41
Speaker
They take you pick, make the lead later. They do cartwheel, feel proud for themselves, but forget their earned race, jump back in car.
00:14:52
Speaker
God does donut has good time. And then this person's going to go this way. I guess technically all these things are possible because in my head I was thinking like oh yeah it's just the other characters for the game. I guess these are other people so. Yeah these are other NPCs. They could just not know where the gas pedal is. Yeah it's true. Or they're doing it manually and driving in reverse like weirdo.
00:15:17
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, he's gonna just shoot at him. Oh, actually, you know, I'll wait for that as well. Again, another one. Perfect timing. Your turn, Davida. I love that. Okay, okay. Here's what's happening. I think I am going to just go and ram that car in front of me. Noice. Okay.
00:15:40
Speaker
I don't know if I can shoot things at the same time. Yeah, you can do. What I will say is, yeah. So what I've been doing, because they're approaching, or not even approaching, but I do, instead of rolling to hit, what I will say is, well, you're driving and shooting. I'll say, roll a D4 for me, and I will also hit him. That's a three. Okay, so he gets three damage.
00:16:12
Speaker
We'll see. Ooh, just hits. Oh, not just hits. I mean, pretty, pretty long distance. That's fine. So you hit this guy and he gets pushed. Not that far, but he pushed. And I'll say you can roll another d4. Two.
00:16:31
Speaker
aggressive bumper car. That's a good idea, carnival games for others. And you see on top of your screen, you see your area, your screen, you see the name, Spectre, and the health is half. And that's your turn. Now I'm just going to do the rest of that.
00:16:58
Speaker
Oh, I don't want to encounter that car. What's that car? It's a semi. Oh yeah, stay the heck away from that. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You still don't know where she's at.
00:17:12
Speaker
She's an ice cream truck, and that's a semi like common sense prevails here I don't need Lee to tell me that that's bad news I don't need Lee to tell me that that's bad news to not Remember there's always bigger vehicles, so you stay away from the bigger vehicle exactly good job
00:17:37
Speaker
So when you play Mario Kart, stay away from the bigger characters, like DK Bowser. Just stay away from those guys. Yeah. But if he's the biggest one, I'll probably have to face him at the end anyway, even if I do. He's always Peach though, isn't he? Peach is always the one that, like, is like right on my tail. Yeah, and then... Hmm. Is that just me, maybe? I don't know. I always get run over by Bowser. Always. Take four damage. Ah, man. Wait, because I ran into him? No, because you were being shot.
00:18:06
Speaker
I don't know how much how much right now just take four damage until you lose wheels what's this game called again? Twisted Metal. Twisted Metal HP now it's it's a bit different the way I'm playing it but it is what it is yeah okay only because the defeat is meta gaming outside the meta game
00:18:35
Speaker
is Googling. It's funny because like my notes on on Ready Player One are like all over the place. Like I'm using the regular like, you know, DFD chart, but like I'm writing this in the personality traits right now because I never filled that part in and I like any free space on here is like, okay, this is where I am. Just like, okay. That's me right there. Like I'm literally doing everything. Yeah, exactly.
00:19:03
Speaker
Luke is all systematically on his phone. Oh, he's organized. He's got it on his phone. I mean, to be fair, I have notes on my computer. I have notes on my phone. I have different maps. I have different characters. I'm everywhere. OK, David? It is your turn.
00:19:21
Speaker
Okay then um I want to... How's it looking on the board? Can Lou, can we see where she's gone? Okay so here's what I want to do. Okay let's wait wait wait a second. You think about this and let them roll inside or or perception. Yeah sure. No perception not insight, perception. Deception! Jess you tell us where he is, where she is even. Um 17.
00:19:46
Speaker
Would you roll, Luke? Three. Technically, that makes 20 between us. Oh, 20 doesn't. Luke, you have no idea still. But Lee, you hear, I don't know what I'm doing.
Debate on Best Strategies for Upcoming Challenges
00:20:00
Speaker
And one of the speakers in the observatory. Okay, do I just go have a look and I see
00:20:06
Speaker
Yeah, so then you see the map and you see the cars driving around. But you don't... I can't figure out which one. Exactly, you don't. Exactly. But you can, I will say at this moment, because you roll a 17, you can message her. Hi, buddy. What car or vehicle are you? But Davido, you get to choose. You can read that or do what you're thinking.
00:20:32
Speaker
Murder, just murder. No, I don't care. I'm gonna do a left turn onto that street, but I'm going to bash that car while I'm doing it. So I'm gonna do like a skid, like the back tires are skidding out while I'm like sweeping around the corner. Since I didn't shoot this time, can I also just glance at my message? No.
00:20:59
Speaker
No, but it's literally the same button, really. It's like the shooting and the driving. It's like hand in hand. Like if you were to stay still and focus on shooting, you would roll a D8, not a D4. But because you're driving and shooting,
00:21:16
Speaker
mobile mobile if you stay still everyone will aim at you so i did bash the car on my way right yes yes yes yes so i'll say you take one damage because i was in the car because what because you went inside because you hit the car because i hit the car but you roll a d4 come on hide them no no no oh take one you just hit the car so it takes two damage it takes two damage okay
00:21:44
Speaker
So then I gotta roll for, or I gotta move everybody else, but I'm getting quicker at it now. Good job. Okay. Okay. Well, that's not good. Jesse's like thinking real hard. By the way, the funniest character to have Cockney accent would be Peach. Actually, Peach would be really funny. Oh, very good. That would be very good. Peach, especially if it's like Lee's Cockney, just like very masculine. Okay. Take four more damage to be there. Oh no.
00:22:15
Speaker
Yep. You see in your rear view mirror, the silver car is chasing after you. And now we're... I hope I have like rocket launchers that fire out of the exhaust pipe or something. Backfire, but instead of backfire, it's actually firing backwards. Oh no. Okay. Davina, it's your turn.
00:22:45
Speaker
Okay, do I have something that can fire backwards? No.
00:22:50
Speaker
Okay, I'm going to turn left and go straight. And also, if I get far enough, I'm going to turn, I'm sorry, I'm turning right. I meant to say right. I said left, but I meant to say right. I don't know things. I was going to say, if I get far enough, I want to turn left. Great. Then it is down the list again. We're getting less and less people though. Hey, what did you just do? I'm running away from the car that I hit.
00:23:19
Speaker
Okay. And also I'm running away because the semi was coming behind me and I wanted to get apart as far away from the semi as possible. Two damage to be done. Okay. Okay. It's coming down to the wire. Crazy. I still don't know how much health I have.
00:23:35
Speaker
I know. Well, you can now you feel beat up, like your tires are gone. Not gone, but like you're, you're, you're dented, you're on fire. Like you are, you hear the creaking of your, of your vessel just, just hanging on. Let's do the last one.
00:24:00
Speaker
No, don't go that way. I want that thing. There's like a power up in the road I was heading for, but this other car is going to get it. Yeah, you can get it. And now it's your turn to lead it.
00:24:11
Speaker
Uh, can I fire to my left or right? Or does it? No, just forward. Only forward. Okay. As I'm speeding forward. But you can see, you have a rear view mirror like there all the time. So you can see behind you as well. So at least I see the car. I'm going to do that like, like pop, uh, pumping brakes and do the skids. So I'm making a U-turn.
00:24:32
Speaker
I'm going to need. I push the brakes. I push the brakes. I push the brakes while I'm turning and I do a spin out and then I'm headed the other direction. Did you also hear what Jess said? What happened to your tires? You have no tires. Yeah, you have very like practically no tires. I'll put the brakes on and I'll back up. OK. Sure. Where do you want to go?
00:25:02
Speaker
I wanna ram the car behind me and then keep going. Just gonna just literally just be like, yeah, I'm just gonna break, shove it in the reverse and be like, I'm just gonna ram the heck out of it. Oh yeah, there's enough space. So you're just gonna back up right into this car. And remember, truck beats car. And can I keep going backwards too? No. I mean, you could. But I wanna hit him so I turn around and face the other direction, is what I mean. James Bond.
00:25:29
Speaker
Yeah, it could be. You're kidding me. Right. That's a James Bond maneuver. 1995. Yep. That's golden eyes as well. Just going to let you know. That's golden eyes. I'm going to say, Davida, you back up into this car. I'm going to need something. I'm going to need an intelligence or a wisdom. I don't know. Insight. Roll insight for me.
00:25:57
Speaker
13 you know what I'm gonna be as nice as I can right now I will give that so you can hit it and It will take two damage I will say that and I will say you take no damage, but you cannot continue Okay, you can't continue moving your car Okay, but she's still flooring it
00:26:22
Speaker
yes and no like I mean she's reversing into the car but it's not moving okay I mean the game's over now but we'll play so he's gonna go this way actually he didn't
00:26:42
Speaker
Did he see? No, I don't think he saw anybody down here. So he's just gonna keep going, actually. Yeah, he's just gonna keep going. Okay, I'm just gonna chase him. Oh, this is also gone. So quick question then. While this turn is happening, obviously I know what game they're playing. Is there anyone in the proximity that's still got a controller? You have to roll to find a controller. Okay.
00:27:07
Speaker
But yes, you can roll for that. Oh, I also I also tell Luke she's over here, but I don't know which one. Mm hmm. Cut out the middle man. There you go. Metagaming. Yeah, I'm I'm struggling with controllers again. Welcome to the quadley. If I'm right, I think that the silver card that I bumped into has like maybe one health point left. You die, Davila. I die, though.
00:27:35
Speaker
your cars eliminated did he shoot me yeah yeah yeah you you yeah so he shoots you as he backs up and you explode so you explode with your car oh gosh it's all right do i give him damage too then while i explode
00:27:53
Speaker
No, no, he backed up and shot you. Okay. Yeah. So that's it. If you guys want to watch the rest of the game, you can. I guess not. That's fine too. Grab a life. Oh yeah. Lee, where is she? Uh, somewhere. It's just absolute carnage over here. Yeah. Get that bad pun out of the way.
00:28:16
Speaker
You know what? I'm going to just say this because it's true. The game fast forwards and says the winner is Darkseid. It's spelled like DC or it's spelled like Darkseid. Like a full one word, Darkseid. Mr. Ash is the driver. It's the Laurie thing. Yeah, of course it bloody is. He had no damage the entire time. Everybody else is taking damage. Is that the green one?
00:28:42
Speaker
No, that's the black one. But the green one is what took your power up, which you don't know about still. So, Davida, you die. And what did you have on your person? Lightsaber? Oh, sugar, honey, iced tea. So, her loo is just casually chilling in that game. So, no, the winner, Darkside, just took it all.
00:29:05
Speaker
Oh gosh. Okay, do we see this person leave again? So, role perception. I've got a 17 on my perception.
00:29:17
Speaker
16, I believe. I'll reroll. No, that's fine. 16, 17. You guys do see the person and it is Cortana. She is a skin of Cortana, full original Cortana. Yeah. Okay. And she's already heading to her next key.
00:29:39
Speaker
Oh, okay. Cool. Um, I want to do an emote to grab her attention. So hopefully my good compadre can possibly swipe something off her possession. I also can't do that in this round, by the way. You have to do that. Yeah. You got to have apples. I saw a pizza by the way. I should have eaten the pizza. Would that have helped me? Oh yeah. The pizza would have helped you. Didn't tell us this GM.
00:30:03
Speaker
Well, she rolled a natural one. She knew nothing. Yeah, that's true, actually. She went in that game with Mike. What was it? Memento issues. She had amnesia.
00:30:12
Speaker
Not necessarily amnesia, but she just went in mind controls. Oh, bless. What do you guys want to do? Is she going to spawn next to us? Yeah. Sick. We're close to. I'm just going to take off my disguise and get it ready to give to Davita so she can look cool in a trench coat. Good call. Because obviously she's still public enemy number one.
00:30:36
Speaker
Oh, you said you 17 and 16 on perception. What do you call it? So you guys see Davida's car explode and then at the similar or very close time as you guys are watching the Cortana figure walk to their next door. You see in the sky from the doorway in the distance where it has the winners of the keys and it says IOI on the
00:31:05
Speaker
on the right below, DaVita. IOI number 100,064. For DaVita's sake, because I definitely know, but what does IOI mean? Roll insight. Oh, there I wrote it down.
00:31:23
Speaker
Natural20, you know. Natural20, tell us everything you know. I am a true gamer. I know. I am a true gamer. I will get it factually. So, IOI is the competing company, or I guess competing gaming company, competing company in general that want to take the game for their own means, for their own gains, and make billions, trillions. So, they have one key.
00:31:52
Speaker
Oh, so they've got, yeah. Cause there was only one key available. So they basically got the key we've got then. Like, sorry, they were the, they were the bad guys from the movie. And the books. Yeah.
00:32:06
Speaker
So yeah, it is an evil corporation and that was one of the peons. So what they do is they have a rotating number of people who join IOI to get like minimum pay to just be a bot and they don't have any skins. They have this like number skin where it tells you their number and that's it. Yeah. Think of like iRobotSkin loop with the number on it. Exactly.
00:32:35
Speaker
But sorry, people join with minimum wage to like actually take physical damage from. Yeah. Yeah. In this case, they are joining to die. Yeah. So basically they're prisoners of war, man. Basically these people are, but that sucks. No, that's up against the genuine conventions. That's a war. That's a war crime in this world. I'm pretty positive. It's all good.
00:33:01
Speaker
is a war crime we're going with that. Okay so can we tell then that this character of Cortana was in fact a goodie or a badie? Does she work for IOI? With that natural 20 we can ask all these questions. No with the natural 20 you wanted to know what IOI was and that is what I told you.
00:33:24
Speaker
Oh, but she had a Cortana skin, so she is in a simp. Oh, that's annoying. I was just asked because when we found out they were all just like chappy robots. This woman has a chappy. That's perfect skin. Perfect skin. That's my next skin when I die. Oh, that's such a good skin. I'll get it. I know. It's going to be frickin dope.
00:33:41
Speaker
with a Cockney accent as well. Completely different, not South African at all. Right, okay, so when Daveed gets back, I'm giving her a trench coat so she hides. So the fact is, we've played FIFA and won. We just played, what was the other games we played?
Planning Future Games and Key Strategies
00:33:59
Speaker
Was that the only game? No, we played other ones.
00:34:02
Speaker
Yeah, we won Smash Bros and we've won. This game seems impossible to win. What, FIFA? No, we don't FIFA. And then Twisted Metal. Well, Twisted Metal seems impossible to win. No, not really. There's a way. Yeah. So what are you guys doing while Davita is creating her character? Okay. So the games we know, Luke, from the sounds of it, we have Tetris Pokemon, Twisted Metal, Yu-Gi-Oh, and a broom one, which we think could be Quidditch. So.
00:34:31
Speaker
What do you want to play, Luke? I haven't really played any games yet, but I'm just curious. Remember, you have to do with what keys you have. Yeah, I've got the card one. I've got Yu-Gi-Oh! So what key do you have, Luke? I have FIFA. Yeah, I think I only have FIFA. No? Yeah, you only have the FIFA one. Yeah, you didn't trip over any other keys. I think the only one there. And was that all of them, Jess? No, we don't know. That's the one you know. I would like to investigate.
00:35:01
Speaker
There is seven, and we got seven of them. We just weren't so sure about Mario Kart or Quidditch. The other one, two, three, four, five, we knew. We don't know two of them. Do you want me to like specify what I'm looking for? Yeah, sure. Sure. Specify.
00:35:16
Speaker
I'll explain it by saying this to Lee. So I think Smash Brothers is the only one that has anything to do with brothers, right? Right. Like the Riddle was telling you to do, to find the key. Okay. So that would be my guess is that instead of actually like playing the game, there was a place where the key would be. Probably. That makes a lot of sense. I'll say with an 18, that's no. No. That's not right. Yeah. Okay.
00:35:44
Speaker
I'll say with an 18, you are looking for a specific key. You're right. But so far, it hasn't shown itself. And I didn't grow up with Pokemon or Yu-Gi-Oh. Was there anything that would work within the rhyme? I'm trying to remember. There's no key in Yu-Gi-Oh, correct? No, not really. The cards is what it's all about, so it's not really keys. And then you've got...
00:36:14
Speaker
What? Pokemon. I'm trying to think of characters. Ash didn't have any brothers because I keep thinking for ages. Gary was, but he isn't. He's oaks, you know, like nephew or whatever. Yes, Gary. Professor of nephew. Yeah. Screw Gary. Idiot. I'm so curious. Like, yeah, I don't know. I'm curious what Tetris is. Was Tetris made by brothers or was just a random Russian bloke? I don't know. I'll give you that for free. Well,
00:36:42
Speaker
Is there any brothers in like Harry Potter? Fred and George. Oh. And all of the Weasley's but. Oh. Well. Maybe. Wait a minute. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Yeah. And let's rewind. And the other three have two brothers. And Ron and both brothers play on the same team. Do they? Yeah, they do. Give it up. Use your expertise. We're Fred and George on the Quidditch team.
00:37:09
Speaker
Were they on the Quidditch genius? With Ron, I don't think so. They were all three on at one point. I thought he joined when they graduated. Though meta gaming, I feel like Jesse being all confused about that may not mean that we're on the right track. Yeah, well, absolutely. Or is he throwing us up because it's like, you know, half 11 at night for us? I don't know. It's possible that it's not even Quidditch.
00:37:34
Speaker
Actually, you know what, I think they left and then he joined. Tetris, Yu-Gi-Oh! FIFA, Smash Bros. Quidditch and the other two.
00:37:44
Speaker
Yeah, so what I got here in the games is Smash Bros, Tetris, Pokémon, FIFA, Twisted Metal, Yu-Gi-Oh! Quidditch. They're the seven games. Oh, well, technically we think it's Quidditch. It might not even be Quidditch, but it was a broom and we assumed it, and then Jess looked quite smug, so I assumed it was. So I made an assumption, and you know when you assume. But you also assumed it was Mario Kart. Yeah, we did. But there's Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokémon?
00:38:11
Speaker
Yeah, one was a fine opinion. No, you get was the same thing. You know what? I want you both to roll insight for me. I will give you a very big hint if you do well. And by well, I mean between 18 to 20. Okay, to quote Yu-Gi-Oh, part of the cards or dice, please.
00:38:37
Speaker
Well, that was shite. Thank you, Luke. I got a three. The heart of the cards went up with me. Oh, that was a rhyme. In my head, I met Lee being all like, it's down to this. We just need to roll this. And I already rolled it. And I got a 19 and I was like,
00:38:55
Speaker
Well, that's kind of. You're you're breaking down everything. You both are doing like these mathematic equations. You guys are like really trying to break down every sentence. And you remembered when I said that your whole clan can go in and you beat some of the Pokemon, some of the trainer and you brain blast. Oh, that means three of us can go in a game and play it and have an upper hand. So it doesn't just have to be one at a time.
00:39:23
Speaker
I say, Pokémon got to murder them all. That's what I say. Let's go and murder people. Pokémon go to the game. Eliminate them. That's how Fortnite gets around it, so we've got to get it round it. So, are you going to wait for Davida with that knowledge, or are you going to just try and go for Pokémon? Well, actually, no, you have to do Yu-Gi-Oh! Unless Lee wants to do FIFA.
00:39:51
Speaker
No, because you don't know how to run sports, so I do not want to do FIFA. Can we watch somebody play it just to see if... Well, we're waiting for Davita. Why not? Yeah, why not? I'm curious what she's going to be. I'm ready to come, like, she's going to come back and she's like something absolutely mad, like Hulk Hogan or something insane. Like, that'd be mad. Sauron in Gladreal's dress.
00:40:14
Speaker
Yeah, she just comes back as a shark. She comes back as the Jaws. Trying to think of something really awesome, but I'm like, feeling like I should stick with the theme. I don't know. I'm still thinking. You don't have to. I know. I want to because everybody else has so far. So I'm just like,
00:40:31
Speaker
Oh, he hasn't. He's so random. No, he's toad. He's currently toad right now. Yeah. Yeah. And a Breaking Bad meth suit like. Yeah. So like my avatar has to be an elf. I want it to be an elf. And anyway. But yeah, I'm kind of thinking of what other cool stuff I can have. Hey, Davida, what's up? Where are you? She's in the character options selection. Yeah. I don't know if I can get messages or send messages while I'm in here. Probably like I'm creating my avatar right now.
00:41:01
Speaker
Out of curiosity, I think your lightsaber's gone, but would you be able to get that in your character selection screen? And also, it's a lightsaber. They're generic as balls. Like, you didn't specifically go, I want Kylo Ren's lightsaber. You just went, lightsaber. And they're very generic. It's like asking for a gun.
00:41:23
Speaker
Like, I don't think you're going to be able to get the one ring back because, funny enough, there's one ring currently owned by Cortana from Halo now. So, like, anything could happen there. Like, honestly. But yeah, I'm just actually being like, could you still get the dress as like a clothing option? And then you got the lights. No, that would be, I mean, you could, but that's one of your items. Yeah. I write in the comment box, why wear a dress? That's hilarious.
00:41:54
Speaker
wear a Power Ranger outfit. The world is your oyster right now. You can think of anything.
00:42:04
Speaker
My suggestion would be something that would be able to disguise you or hide you. Yeah. That's what I was thinking. But I also have a trench coat waiting for you. So it wouldn't really matter that too much. So cool. So what's going on? What are you guys doing? Why are you guys? We're just, we're literally waiting for Davida to come up with an idea. And then we're going to go be Pokemon, I guess. Right. Luke, is that what we said?
00:42:28
Speaker
Yeah, I think so. Yeah. Could I be watching them to try to get the strategy? Yeah, yeah. Role perception. Okay. Like what is a learning role? What is it? Oh, and I got a question that. Is perception intelligence or wisdom? Wait, yeah, role perception first. I'll tell you why. But is it a wisdom or an intelligence thing? I think it's wisdom. All right, then. Just 14.
00:42:53
Speaker
you see someone doing pretty well you see a lot of people doing rubbish and kind of learning the game but you do see let's see because i've just seen now yeah everybody's doing really bad so they're kind of getting lucky shots you're not really learning anything with looking around is there specifically some game one game you want to look at oh pokemon yeah just try to get that strategy for pokemon uh then roll investigation for that
00:43:21
Speaker
Oh, do you know who my next character is going to be if I die in this? Natural 20. Oh, man, maybe you should be Pokemon master. I just I just admitted that I never watched Pokemon growing up. So good job. I'm in the headspace. We're like, I'm going to die if I don't learn this super fast. And firstly, you see it and these Pokemon are only the original 150, but they're only the original 150 in the Pokemon Red.
00:43:50
Speaker
Oh, I've got that one. We got this. Wow. And you see in that each player, I believe it's six Pokemon. Basically, you can choose your own Pokemon or you can be the Pokemon master and you give bonuses to the Pokemon. Like you can say a motivational speech that'll give them pluses and evasions and stuff like that. So it's a very team game. Right.
00:44:18
Speaker
But you also, you do see like explosion marks, scorch marks from lightning. You see blood constantly everywhere. OK, that's hilarious. Blood of Pokémon everywhere. They don't show you that in Pokémon Stadium. They clean up quite quickly. Yeah, they do. Well, it's easy enough when you have Pokémon that could just kind of. Yeah. Flash. True, true.
00:44:45
Speaker
What happened to my Pikachu? I believe you're wearing half of him right there. You just need to dust yourself off a little bit, mate. Yeah, that's his tail on your shoulder right there, mate. Ouch. Right, Davita, have we finished loading in? Have you figured out who you're going to be? I'm close. I still have to roll for it, and I have to figure out what weapon. I already have
00:45:07
Speaker
I have one thing that I want and then another one, pretty sure I'm almost there. Sick. But I know, I know when I come back, who I'm going to be, what I'm going to look like and pray to God, the item that I want to have is I wish it into existence because it would be hilarious to have. And just letting you know, if you're a big fan of the video game worms, you know exactly what I want to have for fun. And we get our items as these Pokemon or
00:45:35
Speaker
Yeah. So once you enter, you will choose who's the Pokemon master. You will choose who the Pokemon are. Then you will, then the people who are Pokemon will roll, um, further Pokemon. Okay. A Pokemon, a Pokemon. Hmm. And if I have a sword that attacks on its own. You cannot bring, like the Pokemon master can bring their stuff in, but the Pokemon cannot because you will be turned into Pokemon.
00:46:01
Speaker
But is it an extra attacker if I did bring the sword that fights for itself? But you are not bringing that in. You are basically putting your consciousness in a Pokémon. Okay, I'll stay with me.
00:46:14
Speaker
I got a wasp outfit. So that's a shrinking and flying outfit. Cool. So, so you can all end the fireballs and the fireballs. Yep. Fireballs too. Yeah. I'll say with that, you can also, what else can I give you for her?
00:46:35
Speaker
She can fly, she shrinks, and she becomes super big. Seems pretty OP already. Yeah, you can get big for double the time. Ooh, like that. All right, I'm rolling for my second item. And it's a three. So what was it? Doesn't exist.
00:46:54
Speaker
It was a freeze ray. Oh, that would have been fun. That would have been very fun. I was thinking of adding freeze ray, like a freeze bolt as well, but yeah. Okay. Let me think. I've got a cool one. I don't want it to be non-existing. Do you want a funny one? I think it'd be hilarious. Can we get the wrong, can we get Wallace and Gromit's the wrong trousers?
00:47:22
Speaker
I have no idea what that is. That's hilarious though. I know what you're talking about, yeah. Yeah, get those, get the trousers, that'll be mad. No, no, no. Literally. I already have an outfit, I need a weapon. Okay. So yeah, I've been trying to go for... I mean, you technically have a weapon as well. I guess I do, technically. Yeah, fireballs are a weapon. I have fireballs. We're team fireball right now. This is ridiculous. Well, actually, that's a good idea. So let me think of a shield because... Oh, that's a good call.
00:47:50
Speaker
If I have a fireball as a weapon technically already, it would be nice to have a shield. Let me think, what's an epic shield I could have? Oh, well, I guess it would be awesome to have Captain America's shield. But then I'm just Marvel characters instead. Why not? OK, wait, hold up. There's another good shield somewhere. Let me think.
00:48:12
Speaker
Oh, OK. It's weird. It's weird, but it's like super nerdy. And I don't know if anybody will know. Maybe we will know. I don't know. So there's this species in Star Wars that they have this hat, but they can take it out and it's like a shield and they can also like throw it. Yeah. OK. You just building an OP character. This is pretty dope. And they can slide on it to like a sled. OK, I'm going to roll for that.
00:48:41
Speaker
12 it has it's a shield and uh and a hat a shield and a hat yeah okay i'll give you shield and hat but it had it only takes it instead of it taking more damage it gives you a plus one to your ac okay yeah so your wasp outfit i would say
00:49:07
Speaker
Does that give me AC to. yeah it gives you plus I was to say to plus two plus two to AC. yeah okay okay so we are starting are starting ACs 10 basically right yeah. yeah. yeah. Now that I am oh i'm arwin by the way arwin. arwin my.
00:49:28
Speaker
The hilarious Arwen in a wasp suit. Arwen in a wasp suit, yeah. Well, let's murder things. Oh, I mean, shall we eliminate things? So to be the you, are you finished? You're finished. Yes, I'm finished. You show up outside of the key house. Oh, she doesn't spawn in the games room? No. No, that's kind of annoying. Okay, so I'm going to shrink down and fly inside.
00:49:57
Speaker
So you shrink down and I want to wisdom safe or you fly inside and you want to want to wisdom safe. Oh, this would be so funny. She can't even pick up her key. That'd be hilarious. Uh, four.
00:50:13
Speaker
Vida, you are flying in and as you fly in, you are pulled to a corner of the wall where you see a massive key the size of you. I need another wisdom save.
00:50:28
Speaker
What does it look like? I can't tell you that yet. 18. So you snap back into who you are. You still see this giant key and it is a key with a football on the end. I will leave it and fly up to the game room. Okay. And I'll like go to the observatory. Yeah. Wherever the guys are. Okay. Yeah. There are multiples of every key.
00:50:55
Speaker
Maybe. It's just, I mean, obviously. Oh, that's how everyone got into the game while we were playing. Mm-hmm. They all get drawn to. In hindsight, that makes a lot of sense. Yeah. In my head, it was like, oh, there's one. You can have one key per group. But that makes sense. I never said that. Correct. Yeah, the beauty flies up to where you guys are. And you can see them. They're watching the Pokemon.
00:51:21
Speaker
Okay, and I'll just go whisper in their ears and back and then like I'll go next and then just like get really huge I'll turn to Devita and give her the disguise of Raphael so she can stay incognito
00:51:42
Speaker
Well, I don't need it now, actually, because I can always shrink down. You need to still be, you're not in a disguise, you're in an avatar, remember? Yeah, and your name still is above your head. But like, if I'm small, then my avatar's name will be small too, right? No, it's the same as everybody else's. I don't know. I thought if I was really tiny that you wouldn't see, then my avatar's name would be super tiny. I think the original purpose of being really small is that military
00:52:11
Speaker
Yes. So you need a disguise or, but actually, you know, roll inside. Does, does it like, yeah, basically, no, I guess my insight is if I get spotted, like do, or like even like, I don't know. Yeah, nevermind. I'm just thinking like, what could they do? Like they can't, they can't steal a key from me, can they? They cannot at this point now. Right. They can't steal a key from me.
00:52:39
Speaker
So at this point, hmm, that's terrifying. OK, well, I'll just roll inside anyway, which was a seven. So yeah, you think it's OK to not be in disguise. I still look at her and I'm offering her the Raphael trench coat. OK, well, it get in the way of my wings. I don't know. Heck no. It's just it's just a disguise. You'll only know when you put it on. I'll allow you to cut it so you can put your wings out. It's fine.
00:53:08
Speaker
I mean, sure, I guess, yeah, why not.
00:53:11
Speaker
You put it on and it goes over your wings. I mean, it's not like, like, I mean, your wings are able to expand out of it. Like, I'm not, I'm not a horrible person. You are wearing this. Will it shrink when I shrink? I'll just test that out really quick. It's a custom to your being your body. I literally just keep laughing because I'm like, this is going to be a thing, isn't it? You're just going to keep getting small, big, small, big.
00:53:41
Speaker
So, what's the plan? All right, so, Luke, what do you think? Yeah, what do I miss? So, we have to figure out where to go to get the Pokémon key, right? Oh, yeah. Or I guess we could just... I was going to say we could search for it, but it's... All the doors are different, and we still need a key to access the door. We just need to find one that has like a lightning bolt or a Pokéball on it, you know? There's a Pokéball on it. We saw it somewhere. We saw it somewhere.
00:54:10
Speaker
You did? Yeah. Yeah. I remember him describing what the key looked like. No, cause Luke, Luke, Luke went to FIFA, played FIFA, and then he got a key and went to a door and then it ended up taking him to. Yeah. But remember I tripped on a key and I looked down on it and it looked like a circle with a circle inside and a line across. It was definitely the Pokemon one. So it's close to the entrance of the house because. Yeah. But you had the lightning bolt one, which was Smash Bros.
00:54:36
Speaker
No, no, no, but the very first time I entered, he said, and then Davida trips over something. And then, uh, uh, Luke goes to the piano. No. Yeah. Luke went to the piano. Luke went to the piano if I'm the FIFA one. Uh, Lee went to somewhere else and saw something. Yeah. I tripped over the card one.
00:54:59
Speaker
the card one. But you left it there. I tripped over the pokeball one. And I left it there. And it was right right at the entrance. That was the first time I went through the house. Jesse is looking very wishy washy because he does not. We're assuming these things. This is why. Yeah. Here we are. What are you doing?
00:55:21
Speaker
I guess we just go look for keys, but we got to go into rooms where we basically got friends. I'll roll for memory or wisdom, I guess. I tripped over a key. I'll roll for history, roll history. I'll roll history to see if I remembered which key I tripped over when I first came in. I roll for retcon. I roll for rewind. The nine? Yeah, you don't know. Which is apt because you don't know.
00:55:49
Speaker
I mean, these guys know what you wrote, you krypton. Kryptover? Uh oh. Didn't we already mention it though? Yes, you did, but she's not listening. Yeah, I thought so.
00:55:59
Speaker
I tripped over a Lightning Bolt one. Well, I'm pretty positive that was Smash Bros. Nah, I'm not so sure. So what? Oh, it was a Smash Bros. one. Yeah, you went out of FIFA. What came out of FIFA? The Smash Bros. one. Oh, yeah. So you played which one did she trip over? Hmm. A different. You had already. Which can have you had already. But I didn't write the one. OK. I'm just I'm just going to say I can learn now that we can go downstairs and look for it.
00:56:30
Speaker
I want a history check and I got a natural 20. So tell me, GM, what can I remember? Everybody, we're going to go back to the beginning. Hey, welcome to roller coaster park.
00:56:42
Speaker
No, I'm just kidding. I will rewind to, Davida, you walk in and you trip over something. Luke, you are called to the piano and Lee, you are called to the teapot. Luke, you get your key and it looks like, or you don't even know, you go and play it. Davida, you tripped over it and it looks kind of like a broom. Lee, you get it and it looks like a cart.
00:57:09
Speaker
Yeah, so it's the card. Luke, you win the football. Great job, FIFA. The awkward FIFA of four quarters and all that. Amazing. You didn't play at all. You did great, though. Then you exited with the Smash Bros key.
00:57:26
Speaker
Then you communicate that and you guys conversate it. And then Davida had been chosen to play Smash Bros. Davida plays Smash Bros, then gets hypnotized and then goes to play Twisted Metal. Then Davida loses Twisted Metal, loses all her keys and you're now where you are. Wait a minute. She has the first key. I didn't have the one key. Oh, okay. So.
00:57:54
Speaker
We did play Smash Bros, but there was no key unlocked because we kind of used the controllers. Again, I said there is a key. It was Twisted Metal. Twisted Metal. Oh, we lost Twisted Metal. So now at the moment, Davida has none of the game keys. None keys. No game keys.
00:58:13
Speaker
None keys. None keys. And this is all entering Lee's brain, like all this information to just plug it back into his brain. Oh, so I don't know it. Yeah, you don't know. It's all Lee. So why don't we go get the Pokémon one that you found when you first came here, right David?
00:58:33
Speaker
Yeah, but does it have to be a Pokemon game? Or do you guys know that that's the one that the key is in? We know how to win the football one, and we know how to win Smash Bros. We know technically how to win Twisted Metal, and we now know as well the fact that we can all jump in the game together and work together unofficially together. Oh, we do? There could be multiple winners of Twisted Metal? Well, no. We just have to sacrifice ourselves to gain a key like we did. So we give ourselves another advantage.
00:59:02
Speaker
Yes, because our GM is rude. Two thumbs up. But what if only one of us goes in there and wins, but the others can control the other players that are with a remote or something like you guys do with Smash Bros? I feel like we just unfortunately got to play all seven games, which is really... Okay, so then let's go get the Pokémon one that was at the entrance where I tripped on it.
00:59:27
Speaker
Because Luke hasn't died and he has the FIFA one, but the problem is we need the Smash Bros one again. We need the Twisted Metal. Oh, this is so annoying.
00:59:40
Speaker
You say that out loud and you hear like all the other characters like, yeah, this is why we don't, no one ever finishes this. It just never, you know, no one ever can complete L7. It's a bloody endurance mission. That's what it is. Okay. So we don't have the key for Pokemon. Oh, there was a key for Tetris as well at one point, which we didn't get. Right. What, what should we do? Cause we've already, we've already got the FIFA one.
01:00:06
Speaker
Well, if we, if we play, uh, I feel like when, when the key, cause one of these games has the key, that's what we discovered, right? We don't know which game it is. Right. Yeah. But the problem is we need the key to unlock the game. Yeah. So if we, if you died with the smash bros key on you, we can't go straight to Chico, go straight to smash bros.
01:00:29
Speaker
Right. So we need to play another game to get this is an absolute. Well, what about you? You knew where the Yu-Gi-Oh one was, right?
01:00:37
Speaker
Sure, I'll go play Yu-Gi-Oh. What's the worst thing that can happen? Again, you can play it together. Yeah, I know. But I don't know how Yu-Gi-Oh works. And I have feeling like we might just like all die or only one of us gets out alive. And that's how all the other games have been so far. Shadow Realm.
01:01:01
Speaker
Yeah, I don't want to get caught in the shadow realm the whole thing. I just don't want all of us to like, I don't want to have to keep on making new characters. It doesn't make sense for all of us to play one game if only one character gets a treatment. I'm really annoyed by that. I just want to keep my skin. That's all I want. Like some of the other games that we've played in this universe have allowed us all to win as a team.
01:01:23
Speaker
but i almost died to duck duck goose i still have visions of like i know nightmares because yeah that's horrible if i give items that i began the game with to someone else uh does that become their items no that's gay um all right um let's play yugio then i'll go find the key okay do you have any items that you just want that you that you can pass to me that you just in case you die you want back
01:01:48
Speaker
Yes, I'm just going to offhand you a hoverboard and Rio's fighting gloves. So you actually, I'll give the fight. I'll give the Rio. No, you can't hand over the hoverboard because that's what you just created. That's what you started with that item. Oh, no, we said two items, didn't we? So I got a weapon and another one and I got. Yeah. So you did the hoverboard and the Hadoogens.
01:02:11
Speaker
Yeah, the Hadookens. Those are both your starter items. Okay, so the only thing that you could pass to me, you already did, which was the cloak. Yeah. Yeah, pretty much. Okay. Keep the lives. I kind of know what I'm doing with you here. And you don't have any money to pass to me, right? Just for me to hold on to.
01:02:29
Speaker
Well, no, the money, I'm going to keep holding lives. Yeah, no, I meant like the money's always in a joint account anyway. So yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, not always, but then we have 500 in the bank right now. So yeah. Yeah. Sharing. I think I'm going to stay up here and try to look for the controller. Nice. If you guys do that, that'd be amazing. I will figure out how to play Yu-Gi-Oh because I'm still learning in real life as much as whatever Jess is going to throw at me right now.
01:02:57
Speaker
Okay. But I've never even watched Yu-Gi-Oh! So I think you have a better bet. Beautiful. This is great. 100%. If I play with my deck over there, guaranteed I win on turn four. So it's fine.
01:03:09
Speaker
okay high five let's go i do a kind of emote of let's go and i just said high five so i immediately went into high five yeah let's high five let's do a group emote together group high five there we go
01:03:28
Speaker
So you take it to the door and for you're looking for a controller. Yeah. There's no controller for you. But we found the screen, right? We can watch it. You can watch it, but you can't. You can do another game while he's doing this game. That's possibility. If you're only going to do one at a time anyways, that's just while he's while he's playing, I'm just going to be looking for keys. Okay. Do I have to reroll wisdom saves every single time? Every single time it's a new key. Okay.
01:03:58
Speaker
Yeah, so Lee you enter and Immediately you get to choose between four different decks and you can choose Yugi's deck You can choose Joey's deck. You can choose only five different decks. You can choose Kaiba's deck You can choose Mei's deck or you can choose Pegasus's deck. No Kaiba
01:04:26
Speaker
So you pick Kyber's deck and I will roll. Goddamn Ryan picking Kyber's deck. It's got the most powerful card in it. No, it doesn't. Yeah, it does. Shut your mouth. No, I'm not running Yugis. I'm not running Pigzodia because that will not work.
01:04:39
Speaker
But it still looked the strongest card of the day. No, I have to save 6 cards without someone literally stealing my cards. And like, Pegasus' deck steals cards. Jerry's deck steals cards. Bull. Bull. That's all I'm saying. Okay. Blue eyes. That's all in my mind. Dragon flu.
01:04:59
Speaker
so you you pick Kaiba so you turn into Kaiba so we you both we both start with 2000 life points oh thank god so what we're gonna do yeah you roll a d4 and i'll pick a number three if it's not that number you start great nice okay so i start yeah i'm gonna play quite great draw two cards
01:05:23
Speaker
right okay so i'm gonna play a face down monster card okay and a face down trap or spell card cool your turn bro
01:05:33
Speaker
I'm going to... And I look at you. And you see a cross on you? You see a Mei. Yeah, I think I know what's in Mei's deck. I am going to flip my monster card over, which is the Lord of D, switch into attack mode. I'm then going to play my Kaiser seahorse. So I've got three monsters on the board. So then I will tribute summon both of them.
01:06:01
Speaker
to summon blue eyes blue eyes is going to blast the first creature that you put down cool you blow up harpy lady number number one yep so any reaction on death no that's it okay cool it doesn't do anything doesn't do anything other than all right no because what are you guys doing while this is all happening hundreds i was asking didn't respond
01:06:27
Speaker
Oh, I'm sorry. I wasn't looking at Zoom. I was watching someone play Yu-Gi-Oh on YouTube because I was curious. I don't know. Or did you mean our characters?
01:06:45
Speaker
I also am thinking about how the fact that I remember Jesse saying that I have to be the one to get the key if I want us to get it. And that's probably why he said, well, you could play it too.
01:07:01
Speaker
so if this is the one with the key i don't know if we're gonna know that it's the one with the key because you won't get the real key you'll probably get some other key and we won't know unless i'm playing every single game and i don't want to play every single game exactly right okay i'm just gonna smash your harpy lady with blue eyes not a harpy lady she's gone
01:07:22
Speaker
No, the other the other thing creature on the board. The Amazonian. Amazonian. Yeah. But she's how much damage? How much attack is she? She's two thousand four hundred. OK, so what I'll do is I'll attack as he takes six hundred. Six hundred. So I'm down to a thousand four hundred. Yeah. So I draw card. I pick up and play Amazonian fighter.
01:07:48
Speaker
There's another round of zone in your cult murder. How much heart attack does she have? 1,500. And I'm going to attack your Lord of D, who's in attack position. Yeah, he is, yeah. And so you lose with my Amazonious Queen, and you lose 1,200. Yep. So I'm at 800. That was my mistake. And Lord of D is gone.
01:08:15
Speaker
Okay, my turn I'll draw, that's gonna be 30. Oh, this is game. Yeah, this is game. Yep, I think this is game just gone. Okay. I will use the seahorse again with the Lord of D that I just put on the ground to tribute summon my second blue eyes out on the board. Okay. So I'll have to just pump both my black drag blue eyes into your... So you get 3000, I'm life pointless.
01:08:42
Speaker
Yes, there you go. I almost had a misplay there, so that was pretty bad. That was pretty bad. So you see flickering in the air as Maya is one of the IOI people. Oh, an IOI person? Yeah. How dare you? I didn't know that was one of the emotes.
01:09:10
Speaker
Oh yes, that's the that's the censored one, isn't it? It comes up like you have a warning from what's his face like you're banned from the chat. So yes, so then everything kind of fades and it fades to black and you a roll of wisdom save. Oh, great. Seventeen. Seventeen passes. So you you see it and it is a it looks like a block is fitting into another block.
01:09:38
Speaker
Okay. Can I grab it anyway? Yeah. Yeah. It's like, it's like, that's the end of it. That's the place where you grab.
Tetris Game Strategy and Key Acquisition
01:09:46
Speaker
Yeah. So it's like the Tetris. So that's the one we need. We haven't got the Tetris one yet. Um, yeah, sure. I'll, I'll grab it then. So you grab it and, uh, you roll another wisdom save. Yeah, I thought so. Uh, eight.
01:10:00
Speaker
Okay, don't worry. Yes, you start walking over to the Tetris game. You appear in the arena, you get your trophy, then you go and you start heading over to the next game, which is going upstairs and you go in front of the door.
01:10:23
Speaker
and I run nowhere to I roll another wisdom save no you have to roll perception okay well quick question because now I'm out of the game I'm near my clan do I get advantage on this uh no because I don't know where you are but I'm close and they have not had they've not had they've not had advantage either so I have to play fair uh 15
01:10:46
Speaker
15 passes so you are about to put the key in and you stop yourself and you're like oh cool I run back down guys and I come to you guys go like so that was you gear sorry it was so boring but hey I've got Tetris I got the Tetris key
01:11:02
Speaker
yeah so okay so here's the thing they i can i'm the only one who can get the second key yes literally unless you guys both want to go back and play separately that game that i got the first key on and then you guys will both have the first key and then we don't have to deal with this like we don't know who's going to get the second key okay but if i remember correctly we all can contribute to getting
01:11:27
Speaker
the key but you need to get the final key. I have to get the second key. You guys cannot get the second key unless you have the first key. Now I'm thinking do you need to go back and play that jumping game but go backwards and get the key? No, I don't want to do that because that seems a waste of time. I don't want to do that. So Luke's got the FIFA key.
01:11:48
Speaker
you you you did smash bros you did you did do smash bros so we die so we haven't got that one i've got the ugyoki so we've got two of seven at the moment and i think there's another one downstairs the one that i tripped over i think it was the um i think it was the pokemon one
Understanding Game Requirements for Keys
01:12:05
Speaker
okay well um we need to get all seven but then the final final game obviously means that person gets it. But he didn't say we had to play all the games he said one of these games has the final key in it yeah and even if you and Luke both played games and one that doesn't mean that if I played those same games I wouldn't get the final key
01:12:30
Speaker
because you guys cannot get or the second key like the second like uh the crystal keys isn't the second key crystal yeah so we got fifa we got smash bros and then it took us to twist about which you've lost so we've gone yugioh which is now going to take us to tetris which i'll gladly give you the tetris card because we don't know if that goes to the next round of whatever it is so i don't mind giving you the tetris key card to do it because if we do unlock the second key card through it you could pick it up kind
01:12:59
Speaker
Okay, and then we still need the Hogwarts one, the... We need to get all of them at some point anyway. Oh, do we? Because I don't think you said that. Well, we haven't seen the Tetris one yet, so let's go with... That's true. Do you want me to just try it and see if I can do it? Yeah. For some reason, I feel like Pokémon is super important. Yes. The Pokémon one? Okay, I could go back and see if I could find the Pokémon key.
01:13:24
Speaker
How many, Jesse, how many terms? Do you go back and see, find the key? Go ahead. I was going to say what I was doing while he was playing was I was just going to give all of my lose, lose stuff and then go look for keys until, yeah. So yeah, but then I told you the keys call to you. But if I went downstairs and I wisdom saved, would another call, would another key call to me? Oh, okay. You can't just wisdom save and be like, um,
01:13:49
Speaker
Gotta try really hard to get your attention. Okay, so if you think the Pokémon one is pretty valuable or whatever, I'll go down and find the one that I initially tripped over when I came in and play that one and see if that's it. That's the broom one, ain't it? The broom one? I thought I tripped over the Pokémon one.
01:14:10
Speaker
Oh, you might have. I can't remember. Like, a lot has happened since then. Like, I'm getting confused with all these bloody keys. Like, honestly, I thought it would be easier for key cards. But I'm just getting confused with all these keys, because I just thought it'd be a really cool idea to make a lock and key house with all the keys in the world. On top of, we need to get keys on top of keys.
01:14:29
Speaker
do a insight to see if I know which game will get me the crystal key. I don't know if we've rolled a natural 20. I know. I have to roll a natural 20. I know.
Theories on Key Combinations and Game Progression
01:14:41
Speaker
Well, let's just try and see. I mean, might might as well. You guys try it too.
01:14:46
Speaker
Okay. You guys try it too. You guys try too. I don't know. I'm going to try the red one. Oh, do I get advantage though since I'm around everybody? Stuart. Yeah, nope. Would you? No, no, no, no, no, no. Did you not hear my squeal? Oh wait, you got it? The first red dice. I never rolled this dice when it came to 20. No joke.
01:15:07
Speaker
Nice. So, Lee, again, you're like... No! Don't bullshit this, B. Just tell me what came, Geoff. You're thinking so hard and... I'm gonna write this down next to Wario, his mouth. You are... I'm gonna write it right there.
01:15:23
Speaker
you're finding out that there is a connection. There's something about past games. There's something about these games. There's something about these keys. Keys unlock things. There has to be a hidden door somewhere. And that is the key that will take you to the door to play the game that you need to play to get the key. So there's a hidden key. To get the key. This is the crystal key. So there's a hidden door somewhere.
01:15:53
Speaker
There's a hidden door somewhere. So Lee, do you know whether or not we have to find a key that's not one of these game keys?
01:16:02
Speaker
with your net 20 sure I'm literally losing the world to live with all this key talk like honestly I'm getting so confused so you think these keys connect combined and make the key you need yeah so we need to go all seven games to combine like yes we've basically got a freaking make a transformer key
Navigating Wisdom Saves and Key Locations
01:16:23
Speaker
okay then let me go get that one that I tripped over in the entrance and I'll try and do a wisdom save so I don't have to go play it but if I do have to go play it then maybe we'll get oh oh wait a minute if we so yeah okay so if you get that if you get the quidditch king
01:16:40
Speaker
Yeah, that means we've got three already. So then all we need is four more. So the Tetris one is one we can use to get into it. Do we have to finish it in order to have the key? I don't think we have to. Yeah, I don't think we have to play the games. I think we have to get the key and then be like. Do you know that with your Net20? Do you know that?
01:16:57
Speaker
Yes, because it says something about connection with old games and combining. No, no. Ask the GM. Do you have to play the game? GM, do I need to make a mega key out of all these keys? No, no, no. You have to get all the keys. You have to get all the keys.
01:17:13
Speaker
So technically we don't have to play any games. We can just find all the keys, put them all together. No, you can't find them. They find you, but you have to beat the game. You don't have to beat the game. Okay. That's what I thought. Okay. I'm going to go grab the one that I tripped downstairs at before. Okay. Role investigation.
01:17:32
Speaker
wait a minute because lee remembering his card was on the teapot when he went down he didn't have it on the teapot he had in his pocket yes mine was in my pocket because i picked it up and i overpowered it so as he was entering the door
01:17:50
Speaker
Yeah. So do you want to check your pocket? She doesn't have it in her pocket. She left it there. She left it there. So I have to investigate to see if I can find it, even though I know where it was. Yeah. Okay. I will say you don't need to roll investigation. I was like, I knew where it was. You don't find it. I don't find it. What are you talking about? You're a different character.
01:18:14
Speaker
Your new key was the football key. Okay, well then why did I have to roll? Wait, I did roll wisdom when I came into the house initially, right? So I didn't. Okay, but okay, okay, here's the thing.
01:18:35
Speaker
When I walked into the house the first time, as Gladriel, I overcome my wisdom save, but you told me that I tripped over something and I went back to look at it and I then had to do a second wisdom save, but I knew where it was and I left it there. When I came into the house this time as Arwen Wasp,
01:18:57
Speaker
you said do a wisdom save I succeeded in my wisdom save but you didn't tell me that I where the key was but I knew where it was the first time I said it was on the wall it was on the wall I said you approached the wall oh but I left it there right okay that I'm gonna go back to get oh no but it was the football key but we already have the football key yeah but the football key unlocks smash bros
01:19:25
Speaker
doesn't no it doesn't i'm an idiot okay i just want to go looking for keys can we all look for keys yeah i hope you've already done this and i've said it's pointless they call to you in the brief the first one they call keys which one is wrong to me right now what's the one that's calling it's not what calling to you right now what then i'll go downstairs and have one color to me
01:19:47
Speaker
You can't just do that. It's when you enter the house. Can I leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in? Can you leave the house and come back in
01:20:04
Speaker
yeah i'm fine with that yeah just give me all the keys you're dropping your key yeah sure to me he's not giving it to me he's not dropping it he's giving you have to drop it and then you pick it up and then you pick it up to pick it up oh shit i gotta do wisdom safe this could get out if you're gonna do wisdom safe but will it disappear i don't have any keys i don't have it wait do i have a key
01:20:23
Speaker
You don't have any keys. You didn't have any keys. Let me let me leave and come back. So I don't have to drop any. Why don't you both do it and just both? He has Luke has keys and he needs to keep this way. He has one key. He has one key. He has the football key. Yes. Let me leave. I'll come back and see if one calls to me.
01:20:44
Speaker
Sure. And then the dirty 20 insight. If I give my key to Lee, will it disappear when I leave? No, when you give it because Davida died and she she did. Are you you gave your key to do? Oh, no, you didn't. I gave it. I'm going to say I'm going to say no, it doesn't disappear because then you are giving up your possession to another person. That's seven days wisdom saved.
01:21:08
Speaker
17 wisdom save, you pass. Do you pick it? Cool. I now own Luke's FIFA key. If you pick it up, you have to roll another wisdom save. Which ones do you have? I just did a wisdom save to pick it up. No, no, no. You get close to it. Oh, stop. Yeah, I see what you mean. 16. Okay, you're fine. Yeah. So, I'm my person now to Kralify, because I wish these weren't bloody keys. I wish these were something else like stones. It would be way more easier. I have Yu-Gi-Oh, FIFA,
01:21:37
Speaker
and Quidditch. No, I don't. I have FIFA and Yu-Gi-Oh. That's all I have. I have these two keys. Right. You two go out. And Tetris. And Tetris. Oh, Tetris. Yeah, I got Tetris. That was it, Tetris. So I have three of the seven that we need. You two are going to go and find, hopefully, the two others. We need Quidditch, Pokémon,
01:22:01
Speaker
Twisted Metal and Smash. But we know how to cheat those games if we get the opportunity to. Because if Luke basically gets another FIFA, if we win FIFA, we get Smash. If we win Smash, we get Twisted Metal. That means then we've got the three that we need.
01:22:22
Speaker
Did we see which door the... I forget who you said Darkside was, really. Did we see what door she went through? No, you didn't see which door. Yeah, I don't want to beat up players to rub their keys off them. I feel that's rude. You can't. Yeah, exactly. I feel that's rude. Go on, guys, have fun. Hopefully a key will not possess you, but I will willingly follow you when you come back in the house.
01:22:42
Speaker
We will leave the house then. Bye guys, see you in a minute. Okay, so come back in. Dad face, sad emoji, happy emoji. Roll wisdom saves. 14.
01:22:58
Speaker
No advantage. We haven't done advantage since, so no advantage. 14, 15, 14. So, Davida, you feel called to the vase that's on the table, and so you're being drawn to there. Luke, you don't feel anything, and you see Davida, a block connecting to another block.
01:23:27
Speaker
she's got there. So the vase is Tetris. But remember I, Lee, remember I found the key to the football on the wall and Luke found the key to the football on the piano. That's what I wrote, I'm writing down here. Wall is FIFA, cup is Yu-Gi-Oh! But remember Luke found his football key on the piano. Oh yeah! Well that's okay because if we do the football again that unlocks Smash and then if we cheat... You already have football!
01:23:55
Speaker
But yeah, but if we get a duplicate, we don't care. You see what I'm trying to do here. So if we get, and I will tell you with your natural 20 Lee, it changes as I roll back. I was going to say, I think it changes. Yeah. So basically if we, if, if, if Davia goes and grabs the.
01:24:15
Speaker
The FIFA key. Now, I will say, Luke, your key is there. You just don't feel calling to you. Do I see it? I'm going to leave. You don't see it. It is there, but you don't know where it is. Well, the thing is, you could leave. You can roll inside, see if you can find it.
01:24:32
Speaker
Yeah. Cause I'm thinking if you play, if we, if you two went and played FIFA together, work together, you beat FIFA, we unlock smash bros. No, no, no, Lee, you weren't paying attention. Jesse just said, Jesse said that it's a random, random key when you win it. Okay. I think we're just going to keep cheating and just walk in and out. Yeah. Do that. I was going to do that, but just keep doing that. I think it's a cheesy thing before you lock, walk out, Luke.
01:25:00
Speaker
Yeah, Insight is Dirty 20. Dirty 20? Yours is on the doorframe as you walk in. It looks like a Pokeball. So you find it on the doorframe. Okay, you found the Pokemon one? If you're going to grab it, then. Natural 20. Cool. Yeah, you're good. Okay, cool. I'm going to leave and come back and see if I can find one.
01:25:27
Speaker
Cool, great. So you leave, you come back, roll a wisdom save for me. 14. You come back. Same word calling to me again.
01:25:36
Speaker
No, no. I mean, it is the same key, sure. But now it's in the teapot as the top. It's like you unscrew it. Okay, I'm leaving again and coming back and I'll roll my wisdom and it's a 12. Okay. My wisdom is 12. I know how awkward this is. Okay, so I love this because I think we're just cheesing getting keys.
01:26:02
Speaker
which doesn't technically involve oh when you say complete in old games this is how you cheat in old games like constantly keep spawning back and forth yeah like to get extra life yeah okay that's kind of cool if Jess actually meant to do that if he didn't
01:26:17
Speaker
I feel like it isn't. I don't know what you just said. I saw it. I'm trying to think of like standing in one spot and you get the life and then the life responds and you get the next life and then you keep standing there and the life responds. Yeah, I did that like speaks in the curse mummy or something like that when I really needed a lot of extra. This time it's a room.
01:26:43
Speaker
It is a broom. Okay. So I'm going to attempt to grab it and roll wisdom save. Oh no, you already rolled a 12. So you pick it up and you start, you start, you actually head into this like in between, like there's this post and you just start walking through it. Oh, I'm losing my, I'm losing my wisdom save.
01:27:06
Speaker
Yeah, you already lost, you were all the 12 the first time. So then as you get to the door, you roll the wisdom set. Oh, as I get to the door. Can I help? Because I'm like, yo, Davida. You ran up probably to leave. No, I didn't. I was thinking it, but I was like, no, I'm going to stay here for this week. Okay, cool. Yeah. Yeah. I'm just standing in the room. I would say it still doesn't help because she's in a trance. So she can't hear nothing.
01:27:32
Speaker
But is it a like a physical blocking strengths strength yeah if you did if you did a physical blocking i'd say you've already given in i'll say because he doesn't it doesn't work until you get in front of he puts his hand in front of the the hole where the key goes.
01:27:51
Speaker
then it doesn't work. I mean, it's literally gonna, basically you can stand in front of the door as a, if she does move forward, you can try and stop her then, but until she gets to the door, it doesn't, you won't need another wisdom save. Cause it's not asking you to do something different. That makes sense. Because you can't hurt each other in this realm. You can't hurt each other.
01:28:14
Speaker
So you have so in that you can be in the way of her moving forward. But if you're just in the way of her moving forward, then we're just in a stalemate and nothing happens. But if you wait, let me just let me just roll the wisdom save and see if I can do it. Yeah. OK. And I failed. How much? Five. Oh, OK.
