Gab saying "I wish Sean wasn't recording so we could reas these together" was really sweet ❤️ You know Sean would have fun voicing all the different contestants too
Hey Gab. If you look at the running app, every kilometre (mile?) is time stamped so you can see the top loop is super-speedy and the bottom loop much slower.
This morning, I realized I was going through my "time of the month" and the cramps are quite painful. Thank goodness Goobus uploaded a chill video I can bujo and watch classic, black-and-white TV to. Please say "Hello" to BB for me🐱🐈🐾❤️
During the middle of the night last night, I used the bathroom and had this strange feeling mine had started, but when I wiped, there was no blood. Well after waking up and using the bathroom, it turned out I was right all along. I can't even describe the feeling, and it was the only time I have ever felt like that (I'm 33) Was very weird
Alright I think I got all of it... I really enjoyed the puzzle aspect but the mystery was definitely a little off in explaining things, still kinda fun to guess though The only part that really stuck out to me as making sense even though they didn't explain it fully was that the picture of Mike/Mark in Lousiana would make sense if after that Mark went home to Florida once they were eliminated (from Louisiana since it was the final leg of the race and Florida isn't exactly far if they own a travel business) . It still shows that Mike was at the bar like he says and that Mark would be able to text from home in Florida rather than be a murder accomplice. It would also make sense that if they were both off jet setting in the competition rather than home assisting their mom, why she would suddenly be critically ill the day Mark got home on the final day of the competition (rather than it being an elaborate fake set-up). The only thing that made me suspect Jessica honestly was that there wasn't any evidence other than her jog. Everyone pretty much had some extra piece of evidence except for her leaving her with less use as against her as a suspect but also leaving her only one piece of evidence to support her claim overall. The thing that I think was kinda wishy-washy in the way Jessica explained it was that I think Maud was the one being blackmailed for the prize money. I think what happened is that Jessica wrote a note to Maud in Maud's notebook. She knew Maud was sabotaging people, so by writing it directly in Maud's notebook would guarantee that only Maud would see it. If Jessica really knew that Maud was saboteur then even if she stuck to the blackmail threat of not revealing that Maud was the saboteur, then she'd still be blackmailing her for 500k to not reveal that... But Jessica would still have the upper hand in the final awarding to be able to reveal that Maud was the saboteur, eliminating her and leaving Jessica as the winner if she could ensure that Justin wouldn't arrive to accept the prize (because Mike would be eliminated for collaborating with his brother to win.) Like the blackmail note says "I can expose you or guarantee you win." which no matter what Jessica benefits the most from this kind of blackmail since she figured out what Mike and Maud were doing. Maud not wanting to have that kind of thing get out, torn the page out and possibly threw it away, or Jessica knew she'd have the upper hand if she revealed the sabotage at the awarding and had torn the page out right after writing it, maybe thinking that it'd be the easier way to get the full prize money herself, rather than blackmail. Finally this is the most "idk but i assume" of how Jessica got the taser. It was hers. Based on the way that the officer interrogates Ray and suggest that there were multiple other underwear in Justin's room even though the evidence we have doesn't say that, beyond the ones that mentioned in evidence (which the officer showed to Ray and Ray said were theirs), can suggest that the officer was making up the fact that the taser matched Justin's injuries to rile up Ray, similarly to how they kept pushing Bryce to try and reveal more about what he knew even though there was clear evidence he didn't do it or how he kept countering Mike with his own story to see if it would stumble him. Jessica closes her tab at 10:45 but doesn't see Justin go to his room till 11, leaving her time to go to her room, change into running gear likely including a taser, and set out like she's going for a run by 11:12 which is when her phone records her run starting. She'd have about 12 minutes to get changed after she sees him leave and even a minute or two to get back to her room and grab the taser since he died at 11:23. Her room being 307, she'd be able to get to the elevator (assuming the layout has the lower numbers closer to the elevators) fairly fast and if its reverse layout where the lower numbers are closer to the stairwell exits where she can't be seen on camera (as noted in the initial briefing) then she still would have easy access to get between floors. Assuming that all of the layouts and such make sense for that timeline.
Although I didn’t quite get why the person who did it actually did it I reaaaaally liked the big puzzle, it was so funnnn and I’m so impressed you did it without a ref pic, like I’m doing a New York puzzle myself and it’s impossible without it
From what I understand She killed him so that the million would go to Mike Tell everyone that Mike cheated with his twin so the money would go to maud Tell everybody that maud was sabotaging so she would finally get the money But since she’s the killer The money go the the 5th one
Oh man Goobus the rare finds you have been getting of these neat games is awesome! It's super cool you include us in the reading segment in the beginning! I'm gonna watch the rest of this when I get home cuz now I gotta know who dun it but I don't wanna spoil yet!
*SPOILER ALERT* Don't read until after watching the video! Loved the video. The puzzle looked super fun. But... I agree that there were too many loose ends. The motive and means were kinda, um, dicey. She would have had to find a way to get the taser, AND substantiate all the cheating allegations before the finale filming... which was the next day? I get that even with all her evidence that eliminated everyone "ahead of her", with the exception of Justin... he had to also be eliminated... but the lack of taser, and no phone records... I'm not sure how anyone could have come to that solution in a reasonable logic chain. Still... quite fun! And although I offer my critique, I also admit that I could not have designed anything remotely close to this. So, still hats off to the game/puzzle creators. 😉👍
I commented above, but I think the main clue is the running app map. It shows her pace for the first 7ish miles was 4ish minutes a mile, which would be insane! But I agree the phone records would have been helpful.
And maybe it’s just me but it kinda felt like the floor map and bartender statement were just kinda irrelevant info, so you’re presented with a bunch of information to sift through that turns out didn’t matter. That’s not to say I didn’t enjoy this; I loved the ideas and composition of the puzzles! The solution just seemed a bit obscure to me.
SPOILERSSS I think the main clue pointing to the killer was the yellow time stamps on the running map! If her total run was 13 miles, it shows she ran over half of it in about half an hour which is an incredibly unrealistic pace. Also, she had her own taser so it was probably just hers. Kinda confusing and misleading they specifically mentioned Ray's matching his wounds, but I wonder if a lot of tasers are essentially the same size. I love this content so much! What a fun idea for a stream!!
SPOILER WARNING! So from what I've understood from a bit more than a passive watch haha 😅: When you are eliminated from the competition, you get sent back home until the award ceremony. That's why Maud was flying back. She wasn't there until close to midnight, verified by the plane ticket and the bartender. Glenn and Mike were at the bar all night, as verified by the Bartender and her bar tab receipt. Mike was drinking on Glenns tab and it's Mike in the selfie taken by Glenn, because his twin Mark has a tattoo on his right arm. Bryce was at the Atlantis club all night as verified by the ATM receipt from 11: 17pm, (and lied about it) and he had told the bartender he had plans that night. That's also why he didn't hear anything, because he wasn't in his room at the time even though it's next door to Justins. Jessica said she was out running, but noone could verify her story (no-one saw her) and it can't be confirmed that she was with her phone when it was doing the lap. Ray was in the bar with Justin on their own tab, then closed that tab, went with Justin to his room, then when they came back they were both drinking on Justin's tab, making me think that Ray had left their stuff in Justins room, like, perhaps the taser? Jessica uses it and then breaks into Rays room to put it back. Mike's twin brother Mark was helping him to win the races, but their Mum got sick so Mark flew back at some point around the last race to take her to hospital. Seems like the agreement was for Mike to zoom off camera somewhere and wait, whilst his brother won the race from another, closer, starting location. Mark is the one having the argument in the photo. It's unknown what but something clearly went wrong with the plan. I didn't figure out that the Sabateur and the guy cheating were two different people, Maud and Mike respectively so I don;t know what clues point to Maud being the Sabateur other than that she had't been Sabataged yet. The only thing I can think of is the Morocco Bazaar thing where Jessica gets put in a closet in a shop for a few hours. Jessica says that the guys didin't speak English and Maud knows 12 languages. Maud also wrote the blackmail note (but lied about it), which means she lacks motive and oppertunity for offing Justin, but underhanded enough to cheat. It must have been written before Justin won and maybe thats why Mike and Mark were angry in the last race. They knew Maud would tell the production people seen as there was now no money and he'd be a disgrace. Anyway, that's my two cents haha.
This is actually a super cool thing that I didn't know existed. i had no idea there were murder mystery puzzles, maybe I look into doing one myself one day.
This was such fun! If you read the rest of the blurbs in the solutions it explains the missing details at the end. The who deserves the 1 Million dollars ones explains better then the murder ones, actually. Also, Spoiler: I was suspicious of the twin thing, but couldn't figure out if they were the murderer or not. .
I have really enjoyed this style of videos. The cameras are fun and it seems like we are there with you. You are thoughtful and explain the puzzles with us. During other puzzles, the kind of "Stream of Conciousness" discussions can be fun and we really don't get those a lot when playing games, and it seems more personal
It is pretty hard to make me laugh, at least to make me fully break, deep down to my funny bone. When Gab Said "I see dead pieces" right when tension about a dead body needed to be cut made such an unexpected wholehearted laugh come out of me! A genius joke with perfect timing. Chef's kiss 😘
Gab, I swear since you started posting these types of videos, now when I see a puzzle or murder mystery clue game I think of you and go 'oh I bet she would love this oneeee or she probably did it already' 💖💖
That was a lot of fun to watch! But yeah the details of how Jessica pulled of the murder was kinda lacking in the details. Especially the parts about where she got the taser from and the blackmail note found in Maud's room.
The last couple of days have been quite weird for me, watching this helped. I had a weird episode were I was confused if I was real or not, I was so scared and confused. Went on a walk, had some tea, and then started doing a puzzle. (which I only got because I saw you streaming yourself doing them and though "hey, that looks fun") Sorry if that was weird, just wanted to say that you are a very comforting youtuber to me.
EDIT: The only thing I was right about was not being sure if Jessica is guilty or not bc of lack of information of her character bio to base opinions on. There were so many reasons why it wasn't her, but that was just not considering she left her phone in a vehicle while she committed the murder Very fun puzzle and game idea, hope to see more in the future! Previous comment: Just finished your reading of the suspects and my guess is on Mike Trevor for a few reasons. The first clue that sticks out is he has a twin brother, meaning he could have his twin pretend to be him to ensure he has an alibi. Second clue is he doesn't look like a very strong dude, even though Astor is pale and small af, so he's more likely to need a weapon to kill. And finally, his quote sounds like a dead give away just to the game in general As a trans person, I'd hate to suspect Ray but the fact they and Astor are basically rivals with a sponsorship on the line and them being small are good clues to consider. With how we know how TV and games work these days, the "kill your gays" (in this case a trans person losing and going to jail if they're the killer) trope is used quite often, so that's another reason I have for suspecting them (that's obviously not a plot point, but just the typical biases of a lot of game companies) Why I don't think its : Glen: She's a lawyer, I don't see her killing her ex over a measly 1 mil Maud: Not to be stereotypical here, but she's German, intelligent, and a buff woman, so she wouldn't need a taser to kill anyone, she could just drown Astor if she wanted to Who I'm not sure about: Jessica: Not enough about her to base any opinions on Bryce: Again, not really much to go on, minus the fact he's won before
The puzzles are fun, but the twist in the mystery was like whaaaat. We didn't really get the answers for the questions they provided. I would think of the twin because they had the most chance to did it. Well, another nice puzzles we have here. Good job Goobus!
this was such a great video, i really enjoy solving puzzles together and i like how calm and cozy your videos are 😊 in the end i didn‘t figure out who the killer was, but on their website they actually got a lot more information on each contestant and also on the secret note.
I think you would like Megan O'Keefe's The Blighted Stars. It's a really interesting take on sci-fi horror. Also, this puzzle was cool! I'm trying to talk my wife into one like this. A murder mystery for her and puzzles for me 💚
I really really love when you do crime/mystery investigation stuff like this or Scene Investigators, or Painscreak Killings etc because of your methodological approach, but I honestly really wish you wouldn't have guessed at the end but instead used your note pad or the note pages they offered etc 😔 I understand videos can get really long, but I feel like the actual deducing and analysing is the best part; that's what it's about! Definitely would love watching long videos like that and seeing you get all Sherlock-y! Great video though, really love what you're doing on this channel ☺️
I actually guessed correctly but based on faulty information. I thought Jessica was the one running 5 minutes miles so her running app stats seemed weird, but that was actually the victim who ran 5 minute miles. Was weird how there was nothing to indicate Jessica did it. Like actually nothing. I was beginning to to think it was a weird sex thing gone wrong or self-unaliveing.
50:39 I used to like the ACOTAR series, until I recognized a lot of toxic traits being masked as romantic. Possessiveness/controlling hidden under the guise of “mate behavior”. But also her only lesbian character strings the straight guys along thing gave me an ick. There are others as well but it would take paragraphs to go through it all.
These are so relaxing to watch! By the way your electronic notepad you were using at times during the video what is it like? What make and kind is it ? Just curious cause I'm looking for a new one to replace my old and more basic electronic notepad and saw yours looked quite cool!
I assumed Ray accidentally left their taser in Justin's room along with their undergarments. That weapon wasn't planned at all by you-know-who, but unfortunate happenstance for Justin.
As someone FROM Louisiana I was also like..... "I'm sorry, what?" at the last challenge being swamp fan boat racing lmao. I love my home state, even despite some of its faults, but also when people not from the South USA talk about Louisiana its like they feel like its more exotic than it is and it almost feels a little condescending.
The timestamps on the run are very quick at the start of the run, which was supposed to make you sus I think. As for the murder weapon, the hints point out the Maud reminds the police that anyone can easily get a taser. You can find out who the list of potential saboteurs is from by noting Jessica is *not* listed on it as a suspect.
Am I the only one who feels like, for all these insane challenges, the prize should be more than 1 million? Doesn't seem like enough. At least, I'd definitely ask for more if they wanted me to climb the side of a skyscraper using cables.🤣🤣
It's been a while since I've heard this much of a douchey description of people😂Really appreciate the longer videos, I have them on the side while I'm working, perfect for listening to and glancing over
I'm still thrown off about all the loose end evidence in here. Why would the one guy hide that he was a t the strip club if it's an alibi? How would the killer have gotten ahold of another person's tazer? but the biggest thing i'm stuck on is the underwear. didn't they say that bother the panties and boxers didn't belong to Astor? And the partner Ray was non-binary so either of those could have been theirs. Jessica had so little info about her it felt like a "background character to fill in another space," so I guess they thought the kidnapping gave her enough of a villain backstory? and the biggest question, why doesn't the reward go to Astor's family??
That was super neat! I think it’s possible that the elaboration on the cheating and sabotage might have been in the “who deserved to win?” section of the web page?
If you thought the idea of this reality tv show was fun, it seems like it’s based off The Amazing Race from the US! Great show, but much less murder haha
After meeting all the contestants, I am guessing it is Mark Trevor who is our killer. Mike Trevor is the contestant and Gabs even said it herself after reading his bio: "That was a whole bunch of nothing," and quickly dismissed him. That makes me think he is flying under the radar. It is also not a stretch to think that Mike is using his twin Mark somewhere or sometime in the competition as a way of tricking the contestants. A similar concept could be used to hide the murder but that is just my initial impression after meeting the contestants.
The twin could have been the saboteur in the games so he learned weaknesses from each contestant and used Justin's against him... which I guess is electricity? Or maybe water? No the implicit taking of the chest while he was in the bath and then a second shot to the head is cruel.
Mmmh maybe not. The texts from Mom say that someone is in the hospital but they could have made the switch since they are twins hoping no one would notice so they have a chance at the prize money
So the twin was the secret that Maude tried framing Mike about. She had access to a taser and she was going to out Mike for cheating using his brother to play as one contestant in order to have an advantage. He was in second place so the "guarantee you win" makes it so Justin dies and he wins the prize money but in order to keep his secret, she wants half the prize money.
Hmmm the twin isn't even an options for the killer when choosing through the solution. It would have been cool if there was a file with "???" And the Devs could have create a Red Herring for the bartender and created a file for Mark, the twin.
Hi Gab! Because of your video, I actually bought another of this game company’s puzzles, called “The Art of Murder”. I really enjoyed it, and was wondering if you would like me to send it to you? I haven’t written on or damaged any of the materials, and it’s basically brand new! I also felt that the story was a bit easier to follow with this one than the one you did in the video. Just thought I’d reach out! Feel free to reply if you’d like to get in contact!

10:26 - Idk why, but Gab saying, "His smoothies not taking off" made me laugh out loud lol
Yeah, I was imagining smoothies growing legs and running off 🤣
Hey Gab. If you look at the running app, every kilometre (mile?) is time stamped so you can see the top loop is super-speedy and the bottom loop much slower.
This morning, I realized I was going through my "time of the month" and the cramps are quite painful. Thank goodness Goobus uploaded a chill video I can bujo and watch classic, black-and-white TV to. Please say "Hello" to BB for me🐱🐈🐾❤️

As someone who has just finished my monthly subscription to satan's waterfall, I'm sending good vibes and comfort your way!
Can sympathise with you, they keep me awake at night.
I hope you feel better soon. Cramps are the worst 😢
Alright I think I got all of it... I really enjoyed the puzzle aspect but the mystery was definitely a little off in explaining things, still kinda fun to guess though

From what I understand She killed him so that the million would go to Mike
Tell everyone that Mike cheated with his twin so the money would go to maud
Tell everybody that maud was sabotaging so she would finally get the money
But since she’s the killer
The money go the the 5th one
Oh man Goobus the rare finds you have been getting of these neat games is awesome! It's super cool you include us in the reading segment in the beginning! I'm gonna watch the rest of this when I get home cuz now I gotta know who dun it but I don't wanna spoil yet!
*SPOILER ALERT*
Don't read until after watching the video!
Loved the video. The puzzle looked super fun.
But... I agree that there were too many loose ends.

Glenn and Mike were at the bar all night, as verified by the Bartender and her bar tab receipt. Mike was drinking on Glenns tab and it's Mike in the selfie taken by Glenn, because his twin Mark has a tattoo on his right arm.

i don't why this threw me off but she took a shower ate dinner then went to the bar then "ran to cool off"
This is actually a super cool thing that I didn't know existed. i had no idea there were murder mystery puzzles, maybe I look into doing one myself one day.
This was such fun!

Super funny coincidence watching this on may 13th, seeing that this happened in may 12. Added to the ambiance lol 😂
Yeah I paused when I heard that and was kinda weirded out by the coincidence lmao
Ooh a mysterious mystery puzzle. I’m excited
My theory is that they referenced Stanley Kubrick's the Shining with Jastin being found dead in the bathroom in room 237.
The guy having his card stolen could’ve been Mike coz he only brought one drink but he’s table still kept getting drinks
Glen was paying for his drinks. That's why her tab was $400.
She later finds out that he lied about losing his card, he went to an 18+ club (if you catch my drift) and was too embarrassed to fess up to it.
absolutely love these types of videos can‘t wait for the next one! building a lego set would be really fun too
It is pretty hard to make me laugh, at least to make me fully break, deep down to my funny bone. When Gab Said "I see dead pieces" right when tension about a dead body needed to be cut made such an unexpected wholehearted laugh come out of me!
A genius joke with perfect timing. Chef's kiss 😘
This is fast becoming my favourite channel 😊 it's so relaxing, and your excitement when you find the right puzzle piece just makes me happy ❤

Yas I needed this today! I'm off work and exhausted. Now to see how many times I rewatch this because I doze off 😂
That was a lot of fun to watch! But yeah the details of how Jessica pulled of the murder was kinda lacking in the details. Especially the parts about where she got the taser from and the blackmail note found in Maud's room.
The last couple of days have been quite weird for me, watching this helped.
I had a weird episode were I was confused if I was real or not, I was so scared and confused. Went on a walk, had some tea, and then started doing a puzzle. (which I only got because I saw you streaming yourself doing them and though "hey, that looks fun")
Sorry if that was weird, just wanted to say that you are a very comforting youtuber to me.
"Haha, must have a twin brother"
Me on the couch: HE DOES HAVE A TWIN YOU WERE TOLD THAT AT THE START
EDIT: The only thing I was right about was not being sure if Jessica is guilty or not bc of lack of information of her character bio to base opinions on. There were so many reasons why it wasn't her, but that was just not considering she left her phone in a vehicle while she committed the murder
Very fun puzzle and game idea, hope to see more in the future!
Previous comment: Just finished your reading of the suspects and my guess is on Mike Trevor for a few reasons. The first clue that sticks out is he has a twin brother, meaning he could have his twin pretend to be him to ensure he has an alibi. Second clue is he doesn't look like a very strong dude, even though Astor is pale and small af, so he's more likely to need a weapon to kill. And finally, his quote sounds like a dead give away just to the game in general
As a trans person, I'd hate to suspect Ray but the fact they and Astor are basically rivals with a sponsorship on the line and them being small are good clues to consider. With how we know how TV and games work these days, the "kill your gays" (in this case a trans person losing and going to jail if they're the killer) trope is used quite often, so that's another reason I have for suspecting them (that's obviously not a plot point, but just the typical biases of a lot of game companies)
Why I don't think its :
Glen: She's a lawyer, I don't see her killing her ex over a measly 1 mil
Maud: Not to be stereotypical here, but she's German, intelligent, and a buff woman, so she wouldn't need a taser to kill anyone, she could just drown Astor if she wanted to
Who I'm not sure about:
Jessica: Not enough about her to base any opinions on
Bryce: Again, not really much to go on, minus the fact he's won before
“Goobus” I love it!
These videos have been so theraputic to watch. Always love a long Gab comfort video!!
Oh my gosh yesss this looks fantastic! Never seen something like this before, ahhh I'm excited!!
Another amazingly chill video! Love these so much.
The puzzles are fun, but the twist in the mystery was like whaaaat. We didn't really get the answers for the questions they provided.
I would think of the twin because they had the most chance to did it. Well, another nice puzzles we have here. Good job Goobus!
this was such a great video, i really enjoy solving puzzles together and i like how calm and cozy your videos are 😊 in the end i didn‘t figure out who the killer was, but on their website they actually got a lot more information on each contestant and also on the secret note.
I think you would like Megan O'Keefe's The Blighted Stars. It's a really interesting take on sci-fi horror. Also, this puzzle was cool! I'm trying to talk my wife into one like this. A murder mystery for her and puzzles for me 💚
This was so much fun! Love the longer puzzle video :D Thank you!
detective goobus on the case
I would love another one of these, it's so neat to have a mystery while literally putting the pieces together!
How fun!! I had no idea you started another channel! Loves it
The excitement for fitting some of these pieces reminds me of the lady who does the squiggly wiggly sponge art and I am here for it❤
On such a long trek and I so needed this Gab! Thank you! ❤️
WE ARE BACK !! LET'S PUT OUT DETECTIVE HATS ON!
Gab + mystery puzzle = cozy vibes😌🧩☕️
Your videos bring me joy.
I was going to write the same thing!
55:08 I watched Late Night with the Devil with my family, absolutely amazing!
This was so fun! Never knew there was murder mystery puzzle pieces!
This was so fun to watch even if the solution was kinda weird. I'm looking forward to more games/puzzles like this!
This was a perfect calm for my whole morning
Annnnd Gab just got me into puzzling. My new hobby is taking over my life and I could not be any happier 😂. Thank you for making this channel!! ❤❤❤
It would be so cute to watch you play something similar with Jack!
I really really love when you do crime/mystery investigation stuff like this or Scene Investigators, or Painscreak Killings etc because of your methodological approach, but I honestly really wish you wouldn't have guessed at the end but instead used your note pad or the note pages they offered etc 😔 I understand videos can get really long, but I feel like the actual deducing and analysing is the best part; that's what it's about! Definitely would love watching long videos like that and seeing you get all Sherlock-y! Great video though, really love what you're doing on this channel ☺️
Hi Gab, that was a nice time with the puzzle. I really enjoyed it. Thank you very much Gab😊😊😍😍👍👍
Ray prob left their taser in the dead dude’s room when they were together.
I feel like you'd like phoenix wright because it's a lot of solving cases
I’m so excited to watch this. LETS GOOOO!!!!
I actually guessed correctly but based on faulty information. I thought Jessica was the one running 5 minutes miles so her running app stats seemed weird, but that was actually the victim who ran 5 minute miles. Was weird how there was nothing to indicate Jessica did it. Like actually nothing. I was beginning to to think it was a weird sex thing gone wrong or self-unaliveing.
This was very relaxing and interesting more puzzles like this
Was the taser in the room because Ray left it in there. They did forget their panties too after all
The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty series by Anne Rice, under the pen name A.N. Roquelaure 🤷♀
Damn, they really did a number on Justin in his photo..all pale and dead looking while posing😆
I lost a very dear pet last night, and needed something soothing but distracting enough to fall asleep to. This helped. Thanks ❤
No comments? What- criminal behavior this is.. I love this series Gabs it makes me n everyone sooooooo happy! I hope u n Jack n BB r well! 😊❤
lets goooo chill time with mystery goobus
i can’t help but keep looking at her nails, they are so pretty and shiny
Been loving these types of videos!
1:07:42
WAS THAT A "THEY NOT LIKE US" REFERENCE???!?
Such a cool puzzle!
14:33 It’s just J. Jonah Jameson guys
I cant be the only one who watches the live stream and waits for the youtube vid to release?!
You should play Rakuen🌸💗🌸 It is a beautiful and heartwarming story set in Japan. 🌸💗🌸 You would love it. 🌸💗🌸
50:39 I used to like the ACOTAR series, until I recognized a lot of toxic traits being masked as romantic. Possessiveness/controlling hidden under the guise of “mate behavior”. But also her only lesbian character strings the straight guys along thing gave me an ick. There are others as well but it would take paragraphs to go through it all.
Ohoho heheh 2 hour gab video, you spoil me universe
the sombra sound bite for "boop" gave me overwatch ptsd
Watch an hour and a half long movie, nahh. Watch two hours of Gab puzzling, yes.
These are so relaxing to watch! By the way your electronic notepad you were using at times during the video what is it like? What make and kind is it ? Just curious cause I'm looking for a new one to replace my old and more basic electronic notepad and saw yours looked quite cool!
in her other puzzle/riddle games she often mentions it's sth called a "remarkable" and w how often she uses it, i'm p sure she loves it :D
*firework goes off outside my window IRL*
Gab: Dafuq?!
Me: ... WITCH! SHE'S A WITCH!
We need to get you a huge cork board and red string for videos like this! I love these videos so much!!!!
I assumed Ray accidentally left their taser in Justin's room along with their undergarments. That weapon wasn't planned at all by you-know-who, but unfortunate happenstance for Justin.
YAYYY another puzzle😍😍
As someone FROM Louisiana I was also like..... "I'm sorry, what?" at the last challenge being swamp fan boat racing lmao. I love my home state, even despite some of its faults, but also when people not from the South USA talk about Louisiana its like they feel like its more exotic than it is and it almost feels a little condescending.
Who else only realized today that the Goob has a second channel???
The timestamps on the run are very quick at the start of the run, which was supposed to make you sus I think. As for the murder weapon, the hints point out the Maud reminds the police that anyone can easily get a taser. You can find out who the list of potential saboteurs is from by noting Jessica is *not* listed on it as a suspect.
You should play Asuras wrath with the original Japanese voices. It's a classic game that barely anyone knows about 🌸💗🌸
Am I the only one who feels like, for all these insane challenges, the prize should be more than 1 million? Doesn't seem like enough. At least, I'd definitely ask for more if they wanted me to climb the side of a skyscraper using cables.🤣🤣
It's been a while since I've heard this much of a douchey description of people😂Really appreciate the longer videos, I have them on the side while I'm working, perfect for listening to and glancing over
I'm still thrown off about all the loose end evidence in here. Why would the one guy hide that he was a t the strip club if it's an alibi? How would the killer have gotten ahold of another person's tazer? but the biggest thing i'm stuck on is the underwear. didn't they say that bother the panties and boxers didn't belong to Astor? And the partner Ray was non-binary so either of those could have been theirs. Jessica had so little info about her it felt like a "background character to fill in another space," so I guess they thought the kidnapping gave her enough of a villain backstory? and the biggest question, why doesn't the reward go to Astor's family??
Last night may 12- THAT WAS LAST NIGHT ITS MAY 13 AHA
I like that you play board games
Love the vid! I think the atm card was used by Mike since he was drinking a ton on someone else’s dime!
Yay another mystery game! ❤
That was super neat! I think it’s possible that the elaboration on the cheating and sabotage might have been in the “who deserved to win?” section of the web page?
If you thought the idea of this reality tv show was fun, it seems like it’s based off The Amazing Race from the US! Great show, but much less murder haha
After meeting all the contestants, I am guessing it is Mark Trevor who is our killer.
Mike Trevor is the contestant and Gabs even said it herself after reading his bio: "That was a whole bunch of nothing," and quickly dismissed him.
That makes me think he is flying under the radar. It is also not a stretch to think that Mike is using his twin Mark somewhere or sometime in the competition as a way of tricking the contestants.
A similar concept could be used to hide the murder but that is just my initial impression after meeting the contestants.
The twin could have been the saboteur in the games so he learned weaknesses from each contestant and used Justin's against him... which I guess is electricity? Or maybe water? No the implicit taking of the chest while he was in the bath and then a second shot to the head is cruel.
Mmmh maybe not. The texts from Mom say that someone is in the hospital but they could have made the switch since they are twins hoping no one would notice so they have a chance at the prize money
So the twin was the secret that Maude tried framing Mike about. She had access to a taser and she was going to out Mike for cheating using his brother to play as one contestant in order to have an advantage. He was in second place so the "guarantee you win" makes it so Justin dies and he wins the prize money but in order to keep his secret, she wants half the prize money.
Hmmm the twin isn't even an options for the killer when choosing through the solution. It would have been cool if there was a file with "???" And the Devs could have create a Red Herring for the bartender and created a file for Mark, the twin.
Hi Gab! Because of your video, I actually bought another of this game company’s puzzles, called “The Art of Murder”. I really enjoyed it, and was wondering if you would like me to send it to you? I haven’t written on or damaged any of the materials, and it’s basically brand new! I also felt that the story was a bit easier to follow with this one than the one you did in the video. Just thought I’d reach out! Feel free to reply if you’d like to get in contact!
I love these but really wish there was no music! It is so distracting and hard to focus on the mystery!
I love it!!!
1:31:45 ask sean
