The Christmas Maze 2021 Episode 9 - Soul Trapped

[@serrotnodnarB]

shoutout to the insanely talented artist that drew Ash's portrait on the Christmas Whiteboard of Doom! truly outstanding

[@serrotnodnarB]

@@littlered6340 i know right! it's spot on

[@victoriousf.i.g.3311]

Episodes 1-8: Challenging, harmless fun. Episode 9: "I took someone's soul" 🤣

[@therattis23]

"For God's sake, Rosie!!!" --Robert S. Pearson (who should know by now nothing gets past Rosie!) Another BRILLIANT episode! Thank you Access!

[@CrazeeAdam]

tbf Rosie has played so many different kinds of games it seems like so she would know a lot. Just from the games she says she likes, she seems to really enjoy most every kind of game

[@marhawkman303]

@@CrazeeAdam yeah, also her plat list is... quite a lot.

[@masonhostetler3836]

They keep having exactly the right person for every challenge😂 if Dave had rolled the lowest they'd have been screwed

[@PlayStationAccess]

Their luck has to run out at some point...

[@UnrealGenius]

Rob sets the challenges knowing they are perfect for at least one of them…I still think he’s letting them win for some reason!

[@SamsMusicification]

Robert S Pearson is getting desperate. He's now resorted to consorting with the underworld

[@gwts1171]

I would think that Ash would have already used her underworld contacts to help them.

[@stephenfaulkenberry]

Robert S. Pearson: I don't need friends. Also Robert S. Pearson: Would you like a mince pie? There's still a "Rob" in evil Christmas Robert. He's trapped like Ash.

[@brendanowicki3821]

Ash’s acting in this is fantastic

[@jazzyb9488]

I was thinking that too, she’d have been amazing in the Cyberpunk trpg series (as would Rosie tbf)

[@TommiHonkonen]

How do you mean acting? She was soul trapped.

[@thefrozenwolf13]

Loving all of these videos everyone involved needs a good slap on the back

[@marhawkman303]

@@jazzyb9488 yassss! I really wanna see them do that again. :D

[@insainraven9875]

I want to give Props Robert S. Pearson props for these challenges if the time restraints like ten minutes shorter would’ve been really tight. But each challenge gave each member a time to genuinely shine. And Robert S Pearson was absolutely delightful this episode as in every episode

[@CrazeeAdam]

well tbf they would have failed a few without a little extra nudge from mr. RSP himself

[@madalice5134]

I think RSP wants them to win, either to make his victory in the end be all the sweeter, or because he wants to have a good time playing games eith all his friends I'm the finale. Either way, we all win.

[@notoriousbmc1]

*Shows an excellent likeness of Ash* Rosie: "Oh, it's terrifying!"

[@CrazeeAdam]

that color pallet that was used was kind of horrific tbf

[@marhawkman303]

@@CrazeeAdam I was thinking it was "terrifying' because of the fact it looks like she's about to get mobbed by ghosts?

Hats off to the artist who drew Ash

[@SyeDrums]

What an absolutely amazing picture of Ash, love this.

[@Ivotas]

18:32 Don't cry Robert S. Pearson, you're not alone. You do know that everyone is rooting for you in this Christmas Maze, right? And I'm confident that you'll have the last (evil) laugh.^^

[@ByakuyaKB]

Amen to that 👍 Robert S. Pearson, we are with you to the end!

[@StevieHoudini]

Robert S. Pearson is getting more cruel, more devilish, more evil… and I love it!

[@michaelmontalvo7441]

yeah, no

[@christianfarren1179]

Wouldn’t have it any other way! Someone has to be strong enough to contend with Ash when Halloween comes around again.

[@madalice5134]

@@christianfarren1179 Yes, I love that Ash and Rob each have their special holiday segments. I would love to see Rosie and Dave make challenges as well, to see what they come up with and what the theme would be.

[@ChristopherCusick]

If I was Robert S. Pearson, when they finished the challenge I would have said "ops, I forgot. The cost of one mince pie is one crystal"

[@dmaniar007]

Rewatching all the Christmas Maze! It brings so much joy!

[@Philadoxical]

*Rosie:* "That's brilliant but terrifying." *Ash:* Probably thinking that's cool, can I have it when we're done?

[@Suicide2788]

Exactly what most of us was thinking.

[@nursechan1740]

Duuuude, Emily's art skills are on point! And another awesome victory for Dave again! Wooooo!

[@user-hi4sm3ig5j]

That Ash drawing is amazing.

Need somebody to make a compilation of just Robert S. Pearson dancing and twirling 🙏

My lord things just keep getting better and better as we reach the final! Keep it up everyone, this has been an absolute joy to watch

[@PlayStationAccess]

We're delighted that you're enjoying the series, Corbyn! The two remaining episodes will not disappoint!

[@otterpoet]

Between copious sweaters, stinky beans, and imperiled incorporeality, Ash is definitely earning her Xmas Maze laurels this year. And a-mazing teamwork by Dave and Rosie this challenge. Thank you all for this stellar series!

[@sumeunggai5665]

There's something truly special and nostalgic about watching these friends just hang out, have fun, and game. Thanks for inviting us in!

[@SuperBeardWill]

Each and every episode of the Christmas maze is sooo good! Love these and Robert S Pearson's gradual fall into insanity lol

[@bdkerr]

This was great! Ash your acting skills were top notch and hilarious! Rosie your knowledge of videogames is fantastical. Dave your gameplay of The Witness shows how smart you are and how Robert S. Pearson has underestimated you all once again!!!

[@sixpin551]

Great set up and challenge. Ash's part was brilliantly done, just the right amount of drama and camp. Foolishly I thought this one might be tough, but The Witness does start you off with some easy puzzles. Looking forward to tomorrow!

[@krookedvulture]

That artwork should be on some Spooky Ash merch ... it's too good to just wipe away 👻

[@cjc42191]

I gotta say Ash was the most entertaining one for them to take 😂

[@cmwinchell]

Robert S. Pearson: Ash has had her soul taken away by me. Me: I'm sure Ash would love to know where you found her soul in the first place... And take matters into his own hands? What does that mean? Is Rob going to go head to head against someone....probably Rosie or Dave in a stealth game like Hitman or MGS...or maybe a friendly round of Deathloop.

[@Grimzilla32]

After that Halloween stream I wasn't aware she had a soul

[@thematuregamer2027]

Comment of the day. Well done. 😊

[@ABadassDragon]

You win

[@jazzyb9488]

Deathloop is a really good call, hope it’s true

[@Grimzilla32]

I finally know what it is. It's Nathan to battle them all in his Bishi Bashi Special

[@davidmorris8075]

Or Jay lol that would be awesome

[@mononoke721]

Yes, that giant present does look suspiciously human-sized...

[@rulsis]

As soon as I saw that picture of Ash, I was expecting it to come to life and start moving to the song “Take on Me”.

[@RealBradMiller]

I'lll bbbee gooonnnneee in a day orr twoooo

[@PleasantSkulman]

Damn, good thing Robert S Pearson didn't take Dave. He smashed this one!

[@christianfarren1179]

Honestly, I’m surprised Ash isn’t bossing the ghosts around here. Given her great love of Halloween, you think she’d be at home in a realm of ghosts and the restless dead. Next year, she should Soul Trap Rob in a Skyrim sword prop as payback.

[@CrazeeAdam]

I love Ash being an incorporeal sassy voice doing riddles XD I am 100% convinced that Nath is in the box, just by what Rob keeps saying to it. Can't wait for him to pop out

[@thatguywesmaranan]

this entire series is like a lovingly prepared holiday dinner enjoyed with family and friends whose company you look forward to... 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@Jay_Ay_D]

Yessss another one. Robert S Pearson is a genius.

[@neocerebus]

That's a great drawing someone is very talented

[@seracila432]

Probably Emily, the new editor. She drew those game characters on the wall

[@PlayStationAccess]

@@seracila432 Great eye, Seracila! It was indeed Emily - she's incredibly talented and the rest of the team are definitely not jealous

[@hillbillykoi5534]

Have loved this series, thank you all so much! It has been much needed this Holiday season.

[@sgranius1875]

Love the riddles, kept pausing the video to try to work them out. Fantastic series, thanks Access team!

[@scottlil01]

Robert S Pearson continues to be thoroughly entertaining, especially during the outro of this episode.

[@dereksteed2030]

Robert "Soultaker" Pearson.

[@devlinburgess2463]

I guess Rob used a black soul gem to trap Ash in the Soul Cairn.

[@sdidahous]

The whiteboard drawing of Ash is amazing! Jay is a man of many talents.

[@Ruse3]

The absurd length of time that beacon animation took! Agony!

[@ballisticgamer1]

This is just the content I needed today. My Grandmother passed away today so thank you Access for this fantastic Christmas content.

[@PlayStationAccess]

Very sorry to hear that. We're glad we could bring some comfort during a difficult time

[@thematuregamer2027]

My condolences BG.

[@-saint3319]

The premise of this challenge is fantastic so is ash’s voice acting and Robert S Pearson‘s evil plan!!!

What a twist and change of events! I can't wait to see the finale of this amazing series 😁

[@lightzpower8654]

The box for sure has Nathan in it

[@DarknessDust]

HOW DID I NOT KNOW THESE EXISTED?????!!!!! binge watching them now

[@FarazmKhan328]

These challenges have become really hard. The cruelty of Robert is on full display. Getting more ruthless than ever before. I hope the last challenge involves Nathan in a battle royal of puzzles and quest like challenges. Your a mean on Mr. Pearson.

[@MyLightning13]

I look forward to these every year

[@redwolf8447]

‘Must look after this figure…’ takes a swig of liquid diabetes. RSP is a national treasure.

[@davidludwig7501]

Robert S. Pearson you are brilliant! The drawing of Ash is kinda creepy. Done intentionally I'm sure. Great content as always. Keep up the great work. Best channel ever. And Ash your performance was top notch!

2:17 "Neither of you will be enjoying the mince pies!" 22:24 *offers mince pies to both of them anyway* The greatest redemption arc of RSP in this season of The Christmas Maze

"just chilling out with my mince pies...don't need anyone else...I don't mind being on my own...I don't need any friends..." it's too real, Rob, it's too real!

It was indeed the work of Emily - incredible effort again. Some members of the team are rather jealous of her talents

[@ABadassDragon]

@@PlayStationAccess like Rob?
