@@wiggletonthewise2141 Depends on whether you count most of Russia and Eastern Europe as well, and what you're comparing it to. But for size comparisons, never go by maps. Consider this: tiny Sweden is _bigger_ than California. (That said, the US is not a continent - it's _part_ of a continent).

[@Virjunior01]

Arin thinks it's all just flavor text when some of it has abstract clues, but his default is to reject all VA and instructions pretty much unless a cinematic cutscene or a silly scream

[@CommanderCharlie]

I love when half a brain cell fires for Dan and he remembers part of something helpful. He’s like “what did they say about going fast” and Arin just drops it lol

[@ggnicklu]

Everyone picks up on different clues at different speeds. I know the grumps figured something out during this playthrough before I did and probably the same goes for you. The help is also there for a reason. What may be obvious for you is not obvious for everyone.

[@ramirezthesilvite]

Folder says "do not shake" They've played the Music track "Shake My Head" like three times It rattles the whole screen "Maybe if we drop this trophy a thousand times it'll work!"

[@hexagonal69]

Exactly, that was pain watching them try the same thing over and over for the next 15 minutes, expecting a different result.

[@DeathnoteBB]

Honestly it’s either a brain fart (we all have em) or intentional engagement bait (the internet is full of it these days) Also in fairness, the way to access the sound option to mute the narrator was by dropping the T a lot, so the mechanic had precedence

[@QaRajhCreations]

I'd almost bet they won't get to it, even if (let's be honest, they're gonna need it) they use a walkthrough. Arin's (lack of) patience isn't going to be great for this, combined with their talking, which I'm sure will make them not hear hints and pointers.

[@spinningpeanut]

I genuinely love this game so much. Well..... Non game. There really is no game.

[@cheeseducks9118]

As someone who completed this not game very fast as a child, seeing Arin solve everything as fast as I did made me realize it was probably my ADHD

FINALLY! This is one of the most anticipated "not games" for the grumps to play.

[@Hermititis]

Personally, I found asking how to shrink the key WHILE it is actively getting smaller & wondering what to do as it's saying don't move FAST between screens to be way more frustrating than watching them figure out the shaking puzzle.

[@aud7593]

that was honestly incredible to witness. I'm pretty resistant to frustration with how Arin plays, but I genuinely wanted to yell "USE YOUR DAMN EYES, VIDEO GAME BOY" at him

[@Hermititis]

@@aud7593 , exactly. "How do I shrink it?" "YOU JUST DID!!! It is DEMONSTRABLY smaller than it was before." I sort of get not listening,, but it's fascinating how he manages to be actively looking at the screen and still somehow NOT looking at the screen. And it wasn't even subtle, like the changes in "I'm on Observation Duty" can be.😁

[@aud7593]

@Hermititis yes! haha in Observation Duty they often find things I have to look five times to see, is even worse :'D I think arin pointed it out once in one of those click and find Christmas games. He tends to overlook the really obvious shit that Dan sees, and vice versa
