Here's the lore from the first game is anyone needs a refresher. Our name is Riley. Our aunt Kate sends us a letter, saying that she has passed away and that she left her house to us. She tells us about tapes in her attic but warns us that if we watch them, we can't stop. The tapes are of a kid's cartoon, named Amanda the Adventurer, about a girl named Amanda and a sheep named Wooly. We learn from some papers in the attic that Kate worked at the local library but she had also been working on something behind the scenes. Amanda the Adventurer used to be a live action, ran by Amanda's real dad, Sam. He was friends with Kate and would read stories out to the children at the library. He was well known from the cartoon since it got so popular. His daughter was the main focus of the show and her real name is Rebecca. Sam had adopted Rebecca. Sam was approached by a large producing company named Hamelin. They offered to make his show even bigger and he agreed. However, when it came time to sign paperwork and stuff, he started feeling uncomfortable. There was something weird going on. They were making Amanda repeat weird words and phrases. Hamelin knew he was getting cold feet so they removed him from the picture. We don't know if he's alive or not. They made Rebecca sign the contract instead. Through an old demonic ritual, they were able to put Rebecca's mind into Amanda. Since the cartoon aired, children have gone missing after watching the show, like they just vanished. This was what Kate was looking into but she was killed before she had a chance to finish her work. During one of the endings of the first game, a masked figure shows up in the attic and slams their hands down on the table, then the game ends. That's where this game is starting off.
It's the way that Jack figured out the first puzzle almost immediately, but it took GTLive excruciatingly long to figure out how the game wanted them to do the puzzle LMAO
To be fair, there are a ton of youtubers who cut out the puzzle-work, so we don't know how long it took them. I know Rye Toast also had a hard time solving it and their chat was trying to spoil it.
True! That puzzle is so weird. You either get it immediately or almost not at all 💀 my fav youtuber from my country had a very hard time with it too, even tho he’s the biggest puzzle nerd ever lmao (tho to be fair he IS known for never seeing the most obvious/easiest answers)

@@reidking-c9o The Island of Dead Dolls is a real place here in Mexico City, in Xochimilco. There are hundreds of dolls hanged or tied up to trees on a little island in the midst of the canals. Nothing to do with Egypt at all. They just both have pyramids.
Jack must feel so conflicted on this game cause he seems to like it and want to see what happens but he also gets sooooo frustrated at the puzzles sometimes.
@@jacksepticeyeI gotcha. You're a lore guy. You're more interested in the lore than the complexities to get to the lore. That's why I watched your Bloodborne playthroughs instead of playing the game myself: I just needed the lore, man.
The puzzles were definitely a lot more confusing and tedious in this one, some of the clues just did not land on my playthrough when the first I got through relatively fine on my own, definitely didn’t help that my game bugged out at the Do You Feel Safe tape and I had to restart THE ENTIRE GAME to get through
@jacksepticeye if there's ever another one you and Gab should play it together!! (Or you and gab can work together to find the secret tapes in this game)
Like others have said, watching something from you today is the only thing that’s brought me any semblance of peace. Maybe that’s parasocial behavior but I’ve been watching you for a decade. Thanks for all you do, Jack. Sincerely, a sad American ❤
@@coreynjAs a woman, I believe we have rights to out OWN bodies. That human growing inside us is not MY BODY. Please don’t justify killing unborn children. It’s sickening. Nearly died after giving birth twice and would do it again. I think these procedures have a place. Like when the mother physically cannot handle the pregnancy, or when the baby would never draw breath. It shouldn’t be abused. It saddens me to my soul that women abort their unborn children because they are selfish. Our babies deserve the right to live. They are innocent.
literally checked his channel thirty minutes ago for this exact reason. couldnt be more relieved to see this notification. probably going to be rewatching a lot of comfort series like the undertale one in the coming weeks. wishing you the best.

Older piggy banks usually don't have a plug and do indeed need to be smashed. The idea being that you won't touch that money until you actually need it, cuz you don't WANT to break it and have to buy a new one.

amanda the adventurer is definitely one of the best mascot horror games im super hyped that its got a sequel now i hope it becomes a cool little series
Anyone else notice Jack stopped getting the alley scene after the masked woman showed up? Pretty sure that ties into Amanda talking about not trusting people. Can you only get that scene while she isn't around?

40:33 that transition from "maybe YOU can find my a nightlight! :D" to all the lights going out and amanda begging you to "hurry back soon" gave me CHILLS. THAT WAS SO GOOD
48:52 Sean: "this has to be right, it couldn't be more right, I've never been more confident in anything in my entire life." Me knowing the flowers are in the wrong places: 👁️👄👁️
I've been saying since 1 Wooly is the real villain, and so much of the sequel confirms it. Dude taunts her and gets too wink wink about her death. Like look at what happens when you do the correct knight story instead of Wooly's. Amanda saves you from her attack dog either way but Wooly stays quiet when he can 100% see it. In fact his eyes go black right before you get attacked, Wooly didn't just let it happen he ordered the attack dog. He gets angry when you won't do his story, when we know his will kill you, stopping you from helping Amanda. That weird guy is with him too, as he tries to destroy the drawing before you can complete the drawing, and if you die you can't help Amanda. He's a demon, probably baalamb, torturing the soul of a dead little girl, garnering sympathy because he's a cutesy animal character that we see Amanda abusing. Brian from Family Guy type beat. I think the Knight story was supposed to be metaphorical, Wooly's the wizard making the Amanda seem like the threat so the knight, Riley, would kill her I love Amanda whooping his ass. (Also keep in mind Rebecca was said to be a sweet child and the live action show used to be loved by parents, so why would she suddenly becomes vicious and why would the show start teaching bad lessons for no reason? "Hameln" is named after the pied piper myth, so it's most likely they transformed her into "Amanda" to serve their goal of taking children, we saw they go missing last game after watching. She's somewhat possessed to serve that purpose, yet she directly tries to keep the child protagonist alive. Just like the dragon, wanting to speak as herself but only able to act as a threat because of magic).
@@CosmicEL-Squid Doesn't explain how often Wooly mocks her for being dead ("it's fun to pretend you can go places" seems very specifically worded), or when he orders your death, or that the attack dog's eyes look exactly like Wooly's fur or how angry he is when you make Amanda feel better. Keep in mind the Wooly character didn't even exist in the original live action series, so who is he? I assume when Hameln had Rebecca recite demon mames under the guise of training some "voice matrix", he's the one who took. I mean just look at the start of the broken tape where 5+ Amanda's scream in agony looked down upon by a giant smiling Wooly in what can only be described as a hellscape. That dude is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
@@billbill6094 I've seen theories saying the "attack dog" is like a demon/Amanda's demon (it has some of Amanda's features with "wool over the eyes" (which also happen to literally be the eyes*) and listens to her/tries to protect her). The other stuff related to that is spoiler territory for the secret ending so I won't go into it, but that demon/entity is not necessarily Wooly or a direct metaphor for Wooly I've also seen theories saying Wooly was created/used to keep Amanda pacified (hence why she hates him, she learned this, and that's why he haunts her sometimes/in a couple scenes). I've seen most people interpret that as him being a villain, but imo that could also mean he is not necessarily malicious but trying to do what he thinks/has been conditioned or programmed to think is best for her (which you could also interpret as being a villain, I'm just talking about intent/knowledge), as in his version of the knight story he genuinely seems to care for her in some way (if you interpret Wooly as the knight, Amanda as the princess, and the possum as the dragon (and I also interpreted Amanda's version of the knight story to be Amanda as the princess/dragon, and Wooly still as the knight, as he looked down at his hands and seemed upset when the knight killed the dragon. Still not sure about the wizard in either version though)). Wooly's toxic positivity and dismissal of Amanda's feelings of course ends up hurting her and keeping her trapped, and he of course has the outbursts as well, so his poor treatment of Amanda's feelings is highlighted and important regardless of whether he knows why or whether he's keeping her trapped or not As for the "weird guy"/possum, you get more information about him in the secret ending but he seems innocent Those are just some of my thoughts/ideas I've seen elsewhere though *edit: actually I think I was just remembering Amanda's eyes doing that in the first game, but it looked like the entity's wool/eyes
46:12 "I don't understand the rest of this". I feel for you Jack, cause when I'm playing games, the puzzles go over my head, but when I watch, I know immediately. Like right now.
Omg I’m so glad to see some sane people right now because I’ve been feeling like crap all day too. Happy to know that we’re all at least in it together.
I remember I was at a friends house, it was around 2 or 3am (because I live in Australia), and I woke up and decided to check TH-cam because I had nothing to do since everyone was asleep. It was the only time I’ve ever got to watch Thankmas. Hope it’s more successful than ever 🙏
I just sat down to get all the achievements for this game yesterday and I've been hoping a few of my favorite TH-camr's would play it. And just when I needed it, you came through. Thanks, Jack! And like other people were saying, you should definitely try to get the secret/true ending for this game. It seems to me that the secret endings are the canon ones that lead up to the next game.
It'll be hard to feel thankful this holiday season, but I'm super thankful today for you and Gab uploading videos I've been looking forward to for a while!
@@tynj4173 Im not here to talk about politics but alot of people are upset ɓecause the election effects alot of peoples rights in a negative way and you saying this on every coment is not helping bud
Please can you play Life Is Strange Double Exposure? Your original LIS gameplay series got me both into the series and watching more game series you played when I discovered you back in 2015 💙
The fact that I found comfort in you back in 2016 when I was 16 and couldn’t vote yet. And I’m still here, continuing to find comfort in you. The fact that it’s because of the same man is awful.
It’s impressive and a bit funny how Jack got the gist of the first puzzle than some TH-camrs. I mean I never knew how that puzzle works either til Jack showed me.
12:49 Hey! I'm just at this part so idk if you saw it yet, but Wooly is spelled with one L. I'm not correcting you to be mean but it's because she says "Haha, if you can find him!"
If you guys want to play the game for yourself, you can definitely do it. 2nd run tapes include wooly in them, the game somehow let's you skip the tapes using button, which mislead you thinking they didn't change at all
a unopenable piggy bank is actually a great way of saving money if you have self control/impulse control issues. Prevents you from dipping your meaty paws in there until you actually NEED it.
aaaaaaaa yes :D, hi Jack!! Love seeing your vids. You always cheer me up. When my daughter is born, we’re probably gonna watch a lot of your content together.
Jump to 2:31:50 for the most masterful display of puzzle solving in the whole video! Seriously though Jack its remarkable how you were able to walk through everything you did minutes after doing it to realize where and how you messed up, and even to realize the dial was on 8 several minutes after you first saw it... that's a LOT of information stored in your subconscious!
After finishing the game, I'll say this. This game requires A LOT of sense, outside the box thinking, and qualititave reasoning. Really made my brain stress, I'm really used to games kinda just holding my hand through it, I didn’t expect Amanda the Adventurer of all things to push me like this
I'm especially grateful for this video today Sean, you have no idea how much I appreciate it. Being AFAB *AND* part of the LGBT community, this election has been terrifying and I indeed had a cry at some point about it. Again, thank you so so much, I really needed this 🧡
It’s so good to watch a vid that actually puts a smile on my face and genuine laughter in my soul. So much going on in America rn, can’t say thank you enough for being yourself and bringing happiness to us!!!
Nothing like some good old horror to distract me from the nightmare that is now my reality. :D You truly couldn't have picked a better cause for Thankmas this year, Seán, because LORD are we going to need the support of those charities.
I really needed this upload today. I've been scared and crying all day for my friends and family that will be affected by this election. This has helped take my mind off of it a bit and calm. Thank you.

My favourite part about this game is how unique everyone's playthroughs are. Like what tapes they watch in what order. Incredible video Jack!
Guys did you hear when his voice cracked? I’m calling attention to it.
1:29 “why do I have ants roaming around my eyeballs?”
48:52 Sean: "this has to be right, it couldn't be more right, I've never been more confident in anything in my entire life."
Me knowing the flowers are in the wrong places: 👁️👄👁️
“The fuck is going on in the house of commons” THE HORSE. THE HORSE IS BACK IN THE HOSPITAL.
I've been saying since 1 Wooly is the real villain, and so much of the sequel confirms it. Dude taunts her and gets too wink wink about her death.
Like look at what happens when you do the correct knight story instead of Wooly's. Amanda saves you from her attack dog either way but Wooly stays quiet when he can 100% see it. In fact his eyes go black right before you get attacked, Wooly didn't just let it happen he ordered the attack dog. He gets angry when you won't do his story, when we know his will kill you, stopping you from helping Amanda. That weird guy is with him too, as he tries to destroy the drawing before you can complete the drawing, and if you die you can't help Amanda.
He's a demon, probably baalamb, torturing the soul of a dead little girl, garnering sympathy because he's a cutesy animal character that we see Amanda abusing. Brian from Family Guy type beat. I think the Knight story was supposed to be metaphorical, Wooly's the wizard making the Amanda seem like the threat so the knight, Riley, would kill her I love Amanda whooping his ass.
(Also keep in mind Rebecca was said to be a sweet child and the live action show used to be loved by parents, so why would she suddenly becomes vicious and why would the show start teaching bad lessons for no reason? "Hameln" is named after the pied piper myth, so it's most likely they transformed her into "Amanda" to serve their goal of taking children, we saw they go missing last game after watching. She's somewhat possessed to serve that purpose, yet she directly tries to keep the child protagonist alive. Just like the dragon, wanting to speak as herself but only able to act as a threat because of magic).
To me, it seems like both Amanda and Wooly are trapped in this situation and neither of them are truly evil.
@@CosmicEL-Squid Doesn't explain how often Wooly mocks her for being dead ("it's fun to pretend you can go places" seems very specifically worded), or when he orders your death, or that the attack dog's eyes look exactly like Wooly's fur or how angry he is when you make Amanda feel better.
Keep in mind the Wooly character didn't even exist in the original live action series, so who is he? I assume when Hameln had Rebecca recite demon mames under the guise of training some "voice matrix", he's the one who took. I mean just look at the start of the broken tape where 5+ Amanda's scream in agony looked down upon by a giant smiling Wooly in what can only be described as a hellscape.
That dude is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
@@billbill6094 I've seen theories saying the "attack dog" is like a demon/Amanda's demon (it has some of Amanda's features with "wool over the eyes" (which also happen to literally be the eyes*) and listens to her/tries to protect her). The other stuff related to that is spoiler territory for the secret ending so I won't go into it, but that demon/entity is not necessarily Wooly or a direct metaphor for Wooly
I've also seen theories saying Wooly was created/used to keep Amanda pacified (hence why she hates him, she learned this, and that's why he haunts her sometimes/in a couple scenes). I've seen most people interpret that as him being a villain, but imo that could also mean he is not necessarily malicious but trying to do what he thinks/has been conditioned or programmed to think is best for her (which you could also interpret as being a villain, I'm just talking about intent/knowledge), as in his version of the knight story he genuinely seems to care for her in some way (if you interpret Wooly as the knight, Amanda as the princess, and the possum as the dragon (and I also interpreted Amanda's version of the knight story to be Amanda as the princess/dragon, and Wooly still as the knight, as he looked down at his hands and seemed upset when the knight killed the dragon. Still not sure about the wizard in either version though)).
Wooly's toxic positivity and dismissal of Amanda's feelings of course ends up hurting her and keeping her trapped, and he of course has the outbursts as well, so his poor treatment of Amanda's feelings is highlighted and important regardless of whether he knows why or whether he's keeping her trapped or not
As for the "weird guy"/possum, you get more information about him in the secret ending but he seems innocent
Those are just some of my thoughts/ideas I've seen elsewhere though
*edit: actually I think I was just remembering Amanda's eyes doing that in the first game, but it looked like the entity's wool/eyes
I love watching Jack "failing into success" on some of these puzzles (like the train)
Thank you so much for posting today ❤ it makes the world feel less dark right now
Love from the UK❤
Sorry babe, Jacksepticeye with Amanda the adventurer just dropped
Put your clothes back on we have a better use of 2.5 hours right here
as someone named Riley 0:26 gave me a fucking HEART ATTACK
46:12 "I don't understand the rest of this". I feel for you Jack, cause when I'm playing games, the puzzles go over my head, but when I watch, I know immediately. Like right now.
Thanks for posting this today, Sean. Really needed it after the crapshow that was the US election, i needed something to disctract myself. ❤
Omg I’m so glad to see some sane people right now because I’ve been feeling like crap all day too. Happy to know that we’re all at least in it together.
Sending love to all from the UK ❤
It's the way amanda follows jack's cursor after the creepy possum shows up underneath the couch at 16:05 that does it for me T-T
Thank you for always being a sense of comfort for not only me but this community! We love you whole heartedly ❤️
So glad you’re playing thisssss and can’t wait for thankmas!!! Thanks for everything you do ❤
@@DontReadMyProfilePicture477Don’t bother me, spammer
I remember I was at a friends house, it was around 2 or 3am (because I live in Australia), and I woke up and decided to check TH-cam because I had nothing to do since everyone was asleep. It was the only time I’ve ever got to watch Thankmas. Hope it’s more successful than ever 🙏
Today's Fact: The first video game to use 3D graphics was '3D Monster Maze,' released in 1981.
Coool bug facsts
Ur first bro
Damn.
Didn't know that.
A
also the first horror game
18:24 Not AI generated thankfully, I’m pretty sure this is just a real toy box texture overlayed on top.
I just sat down to get all the achievements for this game yesterday and I've been hoping a few of my favorite TH-camr's would play it. And just when I needed it, you came through. Thanks, Jack! And like other people were saying, you should definitely try to get the secret/true ending for this game. It seems to me that the secret endings are the canon ones that lead up to the next game.
thank you so much for uploading today, sean. it feels like the world is ending and i needed this :’)
Jack really unintentionally screwed himself over by doing the piggy bank first
OMGG Jack!!! I was so sad, I thought you weren't going to do it!! This made my day!!! IM SO EXCITED!!
I love you, Jack! I've been watching your videos for years, and they always make me feel better when times are tough. Lots of love from New York
Thanks Jack, for uploading today, when many of us needed it
It'll be hard to feel thankful this holiday season, but I'm super thankful today for you and Gab uploading videos I've been looking forward to for a while!
perfect timing. been having a really rough day after the election results and i was waiting for you to play this game!!
It's like christmas day, two fantastic events in one
Best day of the year I’ll tell ya that much
@@tynj4173I know right!? Hopefully he can tackle all the inflation. I might finally be able to get a house in the next couple years 🎉
@@tynj4173Cool. Enjoy your new garbage country.
@@Hard_UncleRuckusCool. Enjoy your new garbage country.
That “top of the mornin” brought me so much comfort. Tough day to be an American.
sending love ❤❤ we got this.
It couldn't be a better day to be American! Like Christmas morning I tell you!
@@tynj4173 please learn to read the room and let people grieve.
@@tynj4173
Im not here to talk about politics but alot of people are upset ɓecause the election effects alot of peoples rights in a negative way and you saying this on every coment is not helping bud
@@UhOphelia When there's nothing to grieve there's no reason to grieve lol
was just looking for a good long form gameplay video to curl up and watch, heck yeah❤ definitely needed it today
Please can you play Life Is Strange Double Exposure? Your original LIS gameplay series got me both into the series and watching more game series you played when I discovered you back in 2015 💙
The fact that I found comfort in you back in 2016 when I was 16 and couldn’t vote yet. And I’m still here, continuing to find comfort in you. The fact that it’s because of the same man is awful.
It’s impressive and a bit funny how Jack got the gist of the first puzzle than some TH-camrs. I mean I never knew how that puzzle works either til Jack showed me.
As an American, I needed this today. Thank you jack ❤
sending love ❤❤ we got this.
ilysm sean, this is genuinely everything i needed today :(
I 100% needed this today thank you for being here in our trying times, we love ya 💙
12:49 Hey! I'm just at this part so idk if you saw it yet, but Wooly is spelled with one L. I'm not correcting you to be mean but it's because she says
"Haha, if you can find him!"
If you guys want to play the game for yourself, you can definitely do it. 2nd run tapes include wooly in them, the game somehow let's you skip the tapes using button, which mislead you thinking they didn't change at all
a unopenable piggy bank is actually a great way of saving money if you have self control/impulse control issues. Prevents you from dipping your meaty paws in there until you actually NEED it.
I needed this after today. Not even American but my heart is hurting. Need an escape! ❤❤
aaaaaaaa yes :D,
hi Jack!! Love seeing your vids. You always cheer me up. When my daughter is born, we’re probably gonna watch a lot of your content together.
i nearly pissed myself when amanda said goodnight riley because that’s my name 💀
The monster just being like "LET ME EAT HIM PLEASE" while Amanda treats it like a dog is actually so funny I love it
Jump to 2:31:50 for the most masterful display of puzzle solving in the whole video!
Seriously though Jack its remarkable how you were able to walk through everything you did minutes after doing it to realize where and how you messed up, and even to realize the dial was on 8 several minutes after you first saw it... that's a LOT of information stored in your subconscious!
After finishing the game, I'll say this. This game requires A LOT of sense, outside the box thinking, and qualititave reasoning. Really made my brain stress, I'm really used to games kinda just holding my hand through it, I didn’t expect Amanda the Adventurer of all things to push me like this
Thanks for the upload. I needed this today
Jack sees ants crawling all over the edge of the screen in the beginning but i see anxiety/panic attack if yk yk
Thank you from the US, trying to go about my day as normal
“I thought it was Egypt, I thought it was pyramids”
It might seem crazy what I’m about to say…
Another absolute amazing video from the goat! Love you man amazing start to my evening. LOVE the long videos!!
Desperately needed this serotonin boost after what happened in America thank you
This timing was impeccable, thank you😭
Thank you Jack! Our country is in a terrible time and your videos help me
I'm especially grateful for this video today Sean, you have no idea how much I appreciate it. Being AFAB *AND* part of the LGBT community, this election has been terrifying and I indeed had a cry at some point about it. Again, thank you so so much, I really needed this 🧡
What's AFAB mean?
@RainbowBatman. Assigned Female At Birth. I figured I'd use the term AFAB instead cuz I'm nonbinary
@@cloudykodi I see. Thanks for the reply.
@@RainbowBatman. No problem!
thanks jack, you uploaded this exactly when we all needed
Just what I need to help distract myself from life and hopefully get things done today. Thank you so much for the video! It made me smile ❤
It’s so good to watch a vid that actually puts a smile on my face and genuine laughter in my soul. So much going on in America rn, can’t say thank you enough for being yourself and bringing happiness to us!!!
thank you for posting today jack, your video may be the only good thing to come out of today, we appreciate you
Nothing like some good old horror to distract me from the nightmare that is now my reality. :D You truly couldn't have picked a better cause for Thankmas this year, Seán, because LORD are we going to need the support of those charities.
I really needed this upload today. I've been scared and crying all day for my friends and family that will be affected by this election. This has helped take my mind off of it a bit and calm. Thank you.
I'm so happy i needed jack to make a video on this
Thank you for existing and being such a comfort TH-camr for me. Been watching you since I was a kid. Lots of love Jack 🫶
