    This is amazing, I was thinking the same thing. The gardenscape adds are absolutely insane. Get the puzzle right, or the parent of a child just dies.

      @Crow_Smith 7 місяців тому +23

      They made those ads for Homescapes too and it's like "I know the game isn't that drama filled but please show the real game play" there are enough decent stories that they could make similarly Scandalous ads without lying.
      Like making the radio station, have an ad about "One day the music stopped" and show everyone being sad/freaked out about it and then boom, they come together and fix it with Austin [and the user]'s help!
      Show the "The original owner died sad and alone after abandoning this house" and then like the "Oh he was this famous puzzle guy/artist!" and then show when the different traps trigger and trap dad and be like "Can you save William?!"
      Or HELL even start with Austin getting a call from his parents, show the house in it's Hay Day and then do that "show up and lower the picture and OH NO!" crap which is the story that starts the entire game!
      There are so many elements it already has that to use their sweet characters like that and make Katherine a single mom of some random kid that is thrown out by various men, including Austin [the dude that would literally do anything for her] is so annoying.

    15:31 The sad thing about this statement is that all Gray's done to this point is the tutorial. After you finish it, a very small % of the game is "like the ads', and abundantly turns into an absolute cash grab.

      Spoiler Alert: The only thing that is different between the ad and the real game is probably the airplane...I haven't encountered that yet at least
      I honestly think Gray should try this game again because it's actually quite fun for a mobile game

      One of the few games I’ve downloaded on my iPad that actually looks as good as the ads is surprisingly called car park simulator 2 multiplayer which is actually more interesting than the title suggests the graphics are really impressive, it has multiplayer and you unlock more and more cars over time. It even lets your character get out of the car and run around and has an in car viewpoint - it’s pretty authentic from what I’ve played so far, most of the time the game looks seriously downgraded from what the ad shows or from the images for it on the App Store

    There were a few channels that would every so often do things like this, but they seem to have stopped. Would really like to see the whole "Expectation Vs Reality" of these games without having to actually get a phone, download the game, and seeing it.
    Plus, Grey's commentary would make it better.

    8:50 true story: one time I was over at my friend's house having a few drinks and I was fairly intoxicated. His other friend brought a dog over that loved everyone except me and the guy who owned the dog said ah yeah he's nice he just growls because he dunno you try just pet him gently and he'll get used to you so I started petting him and I got a little closer and the dog growled and jumped at me and bit me in the face right on my mouth. Had 2 cuts in my upper lip and one in my lower lip and my blood was thin so it was just gushing. Got to the hospital they looked at it, cleaned it with some antiseptic wipes, waited for it to stop bleeding, and told me I'm good to leave. I asked them to stitch it up but they said no because my blood was too thin and they can't do stitches. So they walk me over to the thing to pay for my visit, they wouldn't accept my insurance, and the bill was $1800.70. I didn't even get a bandaid. All they did was wipe my face off with a Walmart brand sterile wipe and leave me sitting there for 20 minutes. I refused to pay and walked out after getting all the documents to show what happened and disputed it later and won.

    *Day 74 of asking... Challenge for Gray: Try and complete a challenge with no checkpoints that take 2 hours to complete. The twist is that the board disappears after you touch it, and in order to reset it, you need to restart the board (before anyone complains... Yes, there will be parts of the board where Gray can have a break, and yes, there will be a teleporter at the end, where Gray has 2 chances to get the correct road path correct (Which won't despawn) if he fails at getting the correct path correct then he just need to restart the map. AND... yes, it is possible, and what I mean by two hours is that no matter what difficult board he plays, would probably take 2 hours, but Alex just edits out most of it, so it's suitable for a short yet entertaining clip) Yes, there will be a 10 second timer before the board slowly disappears and there will be parts of the board that won't disappear and there will be a script at the end where it teleports Gray to the beginning and resets the board, and there'll be 3 teleporters, he'll have to guess correctly, one crashes his game, one forces his game to force restart, and the final teleporter gets him the win*

    This is an interesting concept seeing him compare game ads to the actual games.
    Here's my rating based on what was shown.
    Hero Wars: 7.5 (It is good seeing some similar characters to mythology)
    Master Doctor: 6.5 (Weird with the health problems but still entertaining)
    Race Masters: 5.5 (There is more gameplay but Gray screwed it by breaking that so the Cars can go in purgatory)
    Last War Survival 8.5 (This is a good 2D shooter like experience)
    Age of Apes 8,5 (Nothing like some good ole monkey beatdowns of other primates)
    Hero Rescue 8 (Mostly seeing similar ads to this but still casual experience)

    The beat part is none of those games are actually like that. You get threw the first bit and they all change into a soul and wallet sucking pit of despair...

    I am 100% in the camp of ' grey should make this a series' but only if it stays true to the spirit of things. Like we all know mobile games. So the goal of the series will be to see how they compare to their adds.
