“we are blazing through this” arin says as he hits the hint candle for the 800th time

Yeah, he's blazing through the candle.

Hi, fellow Lovely! Super late reply, but I think they actually lied about why they were playing this game haha! If you re-watch the first episode, Dan comments that another game had finished downloading, so I think they recorded these two episodes to kill time while they waited on something else

this hurts to watch

[@FattyChuna]

i always imagine that the character in these games grabs a multi-use item and then immediately chucks it over their shoulder instead of holding onto it

[@stephsaguudefan1753]

My favorite was West of Loathing for that because any time you used a single-use item it would describe how you lost/accidentally destroyed it

[@MrTehWurld]

Well I mean yeah, have you ever tried to use a crowbar again after using it to open a curtain? That shit gets ruined immediately.

[@FuzzyStripetail]

Arin's burning desire to consult the candle whenever he was in a scobs-fueled jam was absolutely illuminating.

[@queenlafry]

They should play True Fear: Forsaken Souls Part 1 on the switch or pc. It's one of these searching games but without the item list. And it's horror themed, which makes for good grumps commentary.

Sometimes I like to imagine games like this but in real life. You’re about to bone your gf, but bottom text says ‘I need to play it safe.’ So then it cuts to you warping to different parts of your town to get a condom. But then bottom texts says ‘I don’t have enough money for this.’ So then you continuously warp back home, to find your wallet in your car but bottom text says ‘I don’t have my car keys.’ So you go to find your cat has the keys, but the bottom text says ‘I need treats to distract my cat.’ You get the picture.

When I was younger, my friends mother let us use her account to play these kinds of games. My favorite one I remember playing was called Shiver: Vanishing Hitchhiker. It has a good, scary premise at first, but the story derailed hard at the end. I think it'd be cool to play as like a Halloween special on Ghoul Grumps. The best series of these games though would be The Dark Parables because the stories are really good with great art. Another weird but okay one was Phantasmat. I played a lot of these when I was young so you are totally allowed to judge me lol.
