Loved this video! Always happy to see this game talked about. Just a quick addition I think you may like - Drawn to Life: Two Realms was actually made by many of the same creators of the previous two games! Long story short, THQ went bankrupt and a lot of the devs went to work for 505 Games. The gameplay is very different (it's more of a puzzle platformer) which is why it got mixed ratings. I'm not too crazy about the gameplay either, but on the other hand, I personally enjoyed the story a LOT. It follows Mike and Heather in "real life" and the Raposa still existing, implied to because of the power of imagination. It takes place four years after The Next Chapter's original ending and stays very loyal to the feel of the other two games. I'd recommend at least watching a play through!

Absolutely agree! While the gameplay isn’t perfect, I do think Two Realms was a nice follow up after all these years. Especially with the story. While there are parts that aren’t perfect, like I think the villain could have been fleshed out a bit more, there’s a ton of things that were amazing. Getting to see the human world and how it parallels the Raposa world, seeing old and new characters and their interactions, Mari and Jowee in general were excellent, and I really like the message that we shouldn’t let negative emotions consume us. So while it is flawed, I do really enjoy Two Realms, and the story is a big part of that! (Apologies if this message was too long, I am very passionate about Drawn to Life and I don’t get to talk about it too often)

Apparently the Ending was foreshadowed in the first game mainly in the credits song the end you could hear a heart monitor beeping in certain parts of the song

I like to believe it is. The song is like a dual song. On the surface it is a romantic song for Jowee and Mari. Underneath, it is for the siblings as they are constantly at odd ends that life has put them in and they barely can hang on to the hope that they can survive together. Great song.

The ending when you first see it feels dumb and random. But then when you actually look back, you can see how pretty much every element of the game - including it's TITLE - has always had a double entendre in place of a kid's imagination trying to fight off death. The Raposa represent elements of the kids brain/imagination, bringing them and the world around them back represents bringing him back. Mari begging to the creator? It could easily be seen as his brain interpreting his sister's prayers. This is one of the few times where "it was all a dream" actually makes the story way better.

its not foreshadowed but it was definitely planned since the start of the first game, the mayor is killed in the forest by wilfre [the dad obviously died in the forest they crashed in], mike is saved and when he arrives back in the town he asks if he is in some sort of dream, then spends the game with the doctor its just one of those endings where replaying the game or watching it you notice a lot more things and it starts to make more sense edit: and as someone mentioned the credits song has what sounds like heart monitor pulses at random points

It's no coincidence that the devil is usually representative of one's will to do as they please. This is why hedonism and sin are associated with satan because they are acts of defiance that satan grants one the freedom to commit. Hell, lucifer was the first angel to defy god and enact his own free will. Wilfre might not be the devil but such an emphasis on free will (plus endangering the life of a child) is pretty damn devilish.

The ending of chapter 2 really reminds me of the ending of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon; Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky. I can't go into spoilers for PMD, but the vibes are very similar, and equally hard hitting. For a kids game chapter 2 is quite dark, I can see that for sure, yet at the same time, I really do appreciate having something more mature on the DS like that.

honestly, this ending is why i don’t mind Drawn to Life: Two Realms. sure, the gameplay is kinda bad, and the story doesn’t hold a candle to the first two, but it’s not all bad. i liked the general shape of the story, and while it really could have used more drawing than just the hero, i was happy with the ending because everything followed on from this one.

I am so glad you covered this game as well. This was one the first games I ever played on the DS. My favorite part about this game is 100% the music, and to this day I still believe this game has one of the best OST in the entire DS lineup. Every single world is just composed so well. Watersong’s level theme can genuinely make me close to bawling my eyes out. I also love how tiny bits of melody in Real Life can also be found in other songs. Its such a shame that Real Life and Light of my Life can’t be found on music streaming platforms. Absolutely incredible review, and thank you so much for bringing this game back in the light again!

The weirdest thing to me was always how much the 2 worlds after watersong change in theme. Watersong is reinforcing the idea of parental death for the future of their children and acts as a hint to the ending of the game. The other two however are about forgiveness to misguided leaders taking the wrong way of looking after their people. In a way I guess it is supposed to align with Mari's plot in the same way but that plotline in itself doesnt seem to tie in with the overall theme of the ending. Still that ending was crazy for kid me considering I never played the first game. I dont think it was supposed to be for shock value but rather just the writers having a great idea for a twist that wasnt conveyed well enough in the rest of the game to make the pay off seem logical. Still a fantastic game that i wish would get some sort of remaster or a full blown remake to add more ties to the ending.

I found this video and the previous one from a reference in another video about a SpongeBob DoodleBob theory about the SpongeBob Drawn to Life game, and it brought back memories of playing specifically The Next Chapter. All I really remembered about it was the hub worlds but I remembered more and more as I watched through this video. I couldn't remember the ending until you showed the first frame of the family walking together and everything came back. I never played the original, and I last played this one probably about 13 or so years ago, so I had absolutely no idea what was going on in the ending. This was a great video, and it brought back happy memories of playing this game

this game is particularly special to me because its genuinely the earliest memory i have, i must have played it when i was about four and revisited it when i was twelve, so its doubly nostalgic to me in that way, and also because it reminds me of time i spent with my family. on top of that i had no recollection of "mike" in the game, who resembles me (as much as a character like that could) and my name is also michael which is pretty spooky, im not usually a very emotional person and im specifically not really affected by videogames or movies emotion wise but honestly man every time i see this game it just makes me want to cry, probably the nostalgia mixed with the pretty sad story but seriously man, im nearly in tears even typing this

This game means a LOT to me ever since I purchased a copy (and not the first game ironically). The first time I cleared the game left me distraught and fueled my already developing depression… however, I still kept playing the game repeatedly regardless, until one fateful moment I created a particular hero that changed EVERYTHING! If you know me well enough, you probably know who I’m talking about… but I’m gonna explain again anyways. Her name is Makato. She started out as just another creation hero I… well, created. But somehow, I grew fond of this particular design. I didn’t let this infamous ending be the end of her story, but as just the beginning of a special story. That story is still going on to this day. Makato’s character has grown, along with many friends and foes she’s made and many adventures she’s had… and it’s still going! It’s just like the final part of the first game’s song… “…then he tells me this is not The End.”

Lmao I reminded a friend that these games existed a couple days ago. She was shocked to discover she still had the cartridges and repressed the ending. Which we both agreed was still awesome. Surprised to see this recommended to me now. Must be fate. Sure, I cried as a kid. I was so happy Mike woke up though and Heather got her brother back. She was always attached to him, even in the first game. When I replayed it I saw all the foreshadowing and plot details in both games. If it came out of left field for some folk then you weren't paying attention. I think calling it "disturbing" or "traumatic" is seriously uncalled for though. Dark? Absolutely. But if you were freaked out by it then I think you were just a weak kid tbh. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

If you think about it in this game Wilfer wasn’t really the bad guy(and yes I said THIS game because in the first game he’s kind of a douche) he was simply trying to stop you from beating him because if you did Mike would have to wake up and face the harsh reality that his sister is now facially deformed and his parents are dead…it’s still a better outcome than Mike staying in a coma permanently though. When I saw the ending I felt uncomfortable but I didn’t really know why because I was young, the last time I played through the game I was nearing adulthood I remember saying out loud “this game is rated E right?!”

I remember being so excited to play this game when it was announced, I was a tween at the time. Unfortunately as I progressed through the game I was gradually more disappointed after the initial bangers that were the animated intro to the game, and the compelling (if not convoluted) plot of the Watersong region. The other levels and worlds were fine, but when Mari then disappeared and Wilfre kept being behind all the nonsense happening in other worlds, I couldn't help but get the feeling that it just wasn't as fun as the first game. Then that ending... I have never been a fan of the "it was all a dream" trope in storytelling even in the best executions. So imagine my surprise to have all of my time and investment in getting to know and appreciate all the raposa throughout the two games, my rooting to see Mari and Jowee get together and see everyone in this silly little game get a proper happy ending, just to have all of that be torn away to make the entire plot be the coma induced fever dream of some bozo who was introduced as a joke character in the previous game. Not to mention in such an unexpectedly dark manner. To me it felt like a complete betrayal, and to this day I've never been so furious about an ending to a game in my life. I know I'm likely in the minority for having such a take, but no matter how many times i try to find an appreciation for the ending that the game was trying to tell, I can't help but just get angry about it. That said, glad to see this game series getting talked about more.

I don't really mind the ending but the one thing that really bothers me is how none of the characters get any sort of conclusion. Like the entirety of these two games I've been trying to root for Jowee and Mari to get together so badly, and for it to get no kind of resolution is just really vile in my opinion. My favorite aspect of the games is definitely Mari and Jowee and their relationship, and I don't really like this aspect of this ending because of how poorly it deals with it.

Heres my theory based on what ive seen of the next chapter wich isnt much but i still want too throw it out there. Maybe Mari acted like she did beacuse she didnt want this world too go away beacuse she didnt want too lose Jowe and she didnt want too hurt him. Like she meant just forget about this stupid quest forget about me! Just go back too living a normal life and stop risking so much for my sake! I mean he woved his life too protect her but if she wasnt there he wouldnt need too risk anything. I think she was scared of hurting him in that way. And that she toured up the book so we wouldnt interfer with her plan. So in a way i think the story is trying to mirror what happened in real life. Like the idea of someone else suffering with someone else pain. Heather still got hurt even though Mike was the one too fall into a coma. And Jowe could get hurt if he goes through with always defending Mari. Even if Mari is the one primarily suffering Jowe will also suffer beacuse of his loyalty and his wov. But in the end Jowe reasures her that he wants too care for her and that her dissapering wont protect him from heartships beacuse hes still suffering even if shes not there. So they face the world ending togheter just how Heater and mike were always there for one and another till the end. I know this might have inconsistentses with how the story goes and iam not even 100% sold on this idea myself but i just wanted too throw out a theory even if there could be incontinences and plot holes or just not really making total sense beacuse i thought it was interesting and i did it for fun.

I definitely remember the ending of this game, so I’ll give it that. But the main thing I remember is just how unsatisfying it felt and solidifying my hatred for the “it was just a dream” trope. It just makes everything that we did and all the time we spent with the characters feel so meaningless and empty. I don’t mind the ending being dark, but I think there are better ways to do it.

Hello everybody and before I say anything I wanna say, no I am not a robot, this is a real person being genuine. There will come a time when all of us will die, and we’ll have to face God on Judgement day. How are you going to do on that appointment? Have you ever lied? Have you ever stolen? Jesus said, “ ‘But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart…” (Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭28‬ ‭NKJV‬‬). So have you ever looked at a man/woman with lust? Have you ever used God’s name in vain? That’s called blasphemy and it’s very serious to God because you are taking God’s name and equating it to the S-word or just not giving it due honor. We don’t use our mother’s name as a cuss word so how much more should we respect God who gave us a mother and gave us life? In addition, Jesus said, “But I say to you that whoever is the angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment.” (Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭22‬ ‭NKJV‬‬). Have you ever hated someone or held a grudge? God equates that to murder. So you and I are in deep trouble of hell, we have broken God’s commandments and we deserve jail time (aka hell). However, God did something wonderful, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (John‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬ ‭NKJV‬‬). So repent! That means to be genuinely sorry for sin and to turn from sin, don’t be the hypocrite, and trust in the Savior: Jesus Christ. And you will have God’s promise of everlasting life as a free gift, “not of works, lest anyone should boast.” (Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬). Our good works won’t get us to heaven but God’s mercy will, and he showed that mercy on the cross. “Jesus answered and said to him, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.’ “ (John‬ ‭3‬:‭3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬). God bless and read your Bible daily! Bible will keep you from sin and sin will keep you from the Bible.

Three or four years ago I beat the game for the first time, the ending had me bawling because things like the first towns mayor trying to die in the end so her son could succeed her and such really brought the ending home for me
