The Horror Game that Started it ALL! - Welcome to the Game 1

Today we revisit Welcome to the Game 1! I used to speedrun this game but today we are doing a casual (and terrifying) playthrough. I haven't played this much but I think it still holds up after all this time! There are quite a few secret endings in this game so if you want to see more you can let me know! Much love and see you during the streams :D

    These ones are always the most unsettling, because you're not being actively chased or anything. It's got the setting of a normal house, but there's someone who's got it out for you because you're diving into things you shouldn't.

    That's exactly why I like this game. The free roam of the second one IS very nice because then you have the added effect of being scared turning every corner BUT I think being alone in your house and having little to no defense makes it feel like your completely trapped which to me adds a lot to the game. Though there are major improvements in the second one too (minus the Mary Sue adam)

    I mean, i think this one is bit scarier than Welcome To The Game 2. In this game, you basically have to rely on your hearing skill and a visual one too(Tracking). In WTTG 2 Normal mode, you basically have sensors and if you’re careful, there really aren’t much threats that can stop you.

Love your detective work in trying to figure out game mechanics or anticipating what may happen, and your love for small details and experimentation in the games. Barely matters what game it is - it's your way of approaching the games that makes it so intriguing and fun to watch. Much love!

    Maan, the first game was a absolute banger, I really loved how the dev polished this game and added a bunch of new endings in it, kinda sad that he didnt do the same in the 2nd game, where your choices would make you play a different character in the story, especially with how flexible 2nd game was with you walking around the building and stuff, but still both games are awesome

It's one of those games where if you get far enough and die you don't want to go back and keep trying at it again - where as with the second one, there's definitely a drive to keep pushing to actually beat the game. The second one is just a much more complete and fluid version of the first one.

    I know it's been a while and maybe you never noticed because you were speedrunning, but you actually have to peek at Breather usually in the end game to speed it up. You stop the first pick, then you peek at him and he shouts "I SEE YOU IN THERE!" and you have to spam left-click to stop him from busting the door down a few times. It's way shorter so it gives time to watch for Lucas. For the gatekeeper, I didn't mind it too much. I just kept failing questions to both find answers and practice defending hacks until I memorized all but the gun price questions. I still don't remember those. I get where Adam was going with it but I agree with you about it being one of those annoying irrelevant tests that can just be obnoxious. I 100% agree with you on the arrow hack and I was so glad to hear you had issues with it too. It's so brutal. *Also, fun fact:* This is like the 2nd game where the first couple keys don't trigger Lucas--and Gatekeeper key doesn't count as one of the two. (I think there may be a site that triggers him to show up early though like Doll Maker or Handbook's homepage.) I ended up just getting the 8th key first, then searching the 3rd wiki until I found two keys. That way, I might not even have to paste the 3rd wiki link again (especially if I'm lucky enough to get 7th and just get the missing one next).
