- I recommend some tea and snacks for this one
Please like and comment if you enjoyed as it helps the algorithm :) it's much appreciated. Thank you!
Welcome back to Unguided, where I'm trying to complete every quest in old school runescape without using a guide, wiki or plugins. I'll only be using my limited knowledge and in-game learnings. Full rules below.
RULES
- No use of OSRS wiki (or any equivalent) for anything - this includes looking up item spawns, quest guides, boss guides, anything
- No use of any other quest helper sites
- No use of quest helper plugin
CAVEATS
- I love OSRS UA-cam, I might inadvertently learn something I don't know by watching my favourite content creators, but I'm not going to stop watching them so that's just a risk I'm willing to take + it's unlikely going to be relevant for me
- I may use some QoL plugins, but only a few. Loot tracker to prove grinds, ground items so I don't miss drops and left click to use bones. Nothing that will give me info I didn't previously have
- I'm going to try and avoid any spoiler comments. If you can, please try not to help me if there's an episode where I'm stuck on something. I appreciate the sentiment but telling me an item spawn or quest step could spoil the fun :)

Crossing that bridge only to be back at the start of Ape Atoll is actually peak comedy.
Bro you’ve done what no other UA-camr can. And that’s capture the nostalgia. This is probably the greatest RuneScape series ever created
Wow, thank you for the incredibly kind words! So glad you’re enjoying the series. Thanks for the support
I recommend you also check out Flip's series. Same principle, but Flip has never played Runescape before. I believe it's called something like noob plays Runescape for the first time
I was thinking the same thing. The way he nerds out over the D Scim - hits right in the nostalgia.
@@0opssorry j1mmys series by release is also very good and similar. very good series too
@alienfood with that said loving the fuck out of your series too brother somethings you have to do on these quest and itewms you need are so niche and random and weird and youre solving abilities are top tier man, gz so far and youre only getting better and better at the increasingly harder quest so looking forawrd to th rest of the series "huge thumbs up"
the ninja agility course moment actually has me in tears
😂😂😂
Just found this series and it is easily one of my favourite. You aren't a walking encyclopedia adding an arbitrary restriction on yourself and making vids that skip over so many game details and just consists of constant grinding - you are just playing the game like it was meant to be played back in the day. And the cadence of your videos and the way in which you just think out loud makes it so easy to watch and follow along. Just super chill.
Thank you, that means a lot, I’m glad you’re enjoying the series
Fun fact, the reason this quest is such a mess is that it was coded entirely by a single intern at jagex during a summer internship, hence why the ingame quest helper dosen't help, and you had to search every crate under and above ground, alongside some other uniqe oddities
No way, a single intern made one of the game’s most iconic quest? Crazy
@@AlienFoodage same as Desert Treasure and the entire ancient spellbook
That sounds absolutely unbelievable, yet at the same time it makes more sense than almost anything else in the game.
Didn't know this but its typical jagex
@@AlienFoodage Considering how annoying the quest is, it doesn't surprise me that it's "iconic", as it's easily remembered due to that!
(Similar to A small favor, also a well known quest...)
You can actually buy another talisman and give it to the monkey kid after the quest is over to replace the toy you stole. I tried doing that cause I felt so bad stealing his toy lmao and you get this cute little exchange with him, it's great
Honestly mate content like this is way more impressive than something like a chunk-lock which is 99% grinding, you working all this out for yourself & making it entertaining to watch is a real skill!
Thank you mate, it’s really appreciated
i mean both have their value
The reason the dragon scimitar looks so sick is because you earned every god damn pixel of that beauty.
Nearly an hour long vid of arguably the most iconic quest? Yes please.
I love how suspicious you are of every gnome now.
Fun stuff to watch. You've got the perfect amount of game knowledge for this. It was funny how screwed over you got from randomly killing the ninja monkey. Finding the monkey teeth was a really cruel part of that quest by Jagex with no guide, but doing that helped you a lot getting the talisman because you knew everything about the town already. I was appalled you didn't guess the monkey's uncle option the first time, but at that point you were beat down as a man already.
Thank you! Yeah it’s interesting the things that totally stump me
I still vividly remember going through the same thought process as a kid, went out of my way to get zombie monkey Tally cause it sounded sick. Not only did it not convince Awowogei but i COULDN'T FUCKING RUN AS A ZOMBIE. I thought it was like that for all the monkeys...
Loving the series by the way, genuinely no one has attempted to play the game without guides so much respect lmao
Hahahaha they punish our curiosity. Thank you, means a lot!
Man I've been binging this series in 2 days. One of the best runescape series so far, with editing and commenting and agony and joy.
It brings back memories of young teen me.
I would love to see a achievement diary detour at some point. They're definitely an experience unguided.
Thanks a lot, I appreciate the kind words. Definitely going to dive into achievement diaries at some point for sure!
Your discovery at 5:22 absolutely blew my mind. When I did this quest unguided myself, I did not think to check that and just had to brute force my way into figuring out which pieces of cloud went where. The blatantly missing pieces of cloud at the corners of B1 and D5 threw me off for the longest time.
Also glad I'm not the only one whose first thought for the amulet mould was the crafting stall, I still firmly believe that that absolutely should have been the correct solution.
41:37 The change from enthusiasm to rage when you get the ninja monkey talisman got me rolling 😂😂
Oh boy. I was bracing myself for your reaction to that particular mishap. Good stuff.
The jagex logo fade in killed me
Really crazy how bad game design can make an account like this feel impossible sometimes! Big ups to you for learning the atoll backwards and forwards, including discovering things like the roof system, which i had no idea was so wrll connected! Also calling the GLO betrayal haha
Haha, thank you!
I love how rent free Glough is in your head, great series mate
Massive congratulations to you for figuring that one out! Looked like an absolute mission haha. Old RS quests can be so esoteric and inconsistent, can really understand your frustration at times! Looking forward to more!
Thanks man! Appreciate the support
It's so hard imagining this quest without guides, I love to see how you figure things out and therefore prove that, well, first of all it's possible, but also it's delightful to see how the quest is designed well enough to give you little hints in the environment.
Prison guys count the times you're tossed back and joke about it, as if the game is telling you that this is normal, keep going! It's like a mini tutorial to this punishing island that you have to carefully navigate through trial and error but it's doable. Eventually you've mastered the area and feel amazing!
Btw dragon scimitar looks same to me as when I was a kid. We made wooden swords to fence with and I was inspired to make a d scim replica.
The final battle was an absolute beating for me back then 😅 I had my three valuables, kept dying and teleporting right back and just hitting it with my sword and hoping for the best. I think it doesn't reset it's health and eventually died. 12 yer old me learned nothing 😂 It was still propably one of the best feelings ever and I was so proud to carry my own curved red sword.
Well done and impressive as hell for completing MM without a guide! Hats off to you sir.
Thank you!
Best OSRS series out there. Don't give up!
Means a lot! Thank you
This series is only getting better! I came here for the nostalgia, stayed for the great editting and narrating. But holy cow I'm actually learning new shit here. I had no idea there was a rooftop network on ape atoll and that you could let the gnome assassin get you the ninja monkey bones. Keep up the good work.
I can not stop watching this series. Your videos give me so much nostalgia and display a truly different time of RuneScape. Some times I miss those days...
I am SO looking forward to you doing "One small favor."
It's got logic to it! Totally!
Honestly my favourite osrs series to date. Keep up the great work!!
Thank you!
34:13 Go on Jimmy, you're awfully keen to talk to that child huh. Sorry, that's not on...but genuinely, really really loving the series. Only a matter of time before this picks up even more traction and you get a load of viewers. Only takes one little breakthrough.
😂😂
Thank you! I really appreciate the support :)
I have never rooted for somebody to finish that slide puzzle so hard before! You are killing it dude!
This is the best series I have seen since the swamp boy.
Damn man love it
Absolutely blown away every episode. Mad lad, cheers
This series is fantastic, congratulations! Also I loved the attention to detail that instead of reading through every single line of dialogue, on the more complex conversations you're adding graphics of items with explanations as to what's being told and what will be the short-term goals. That really elevates it. Seeing the whole thought process is already a lot of fun on its own, but that small touch is a masterpiece (e.g. the "breakpoint" at 18:35)
Thank you, that means a lot!
I have such fond memories of Monkey Madness. I think I first did it when I was 11 or 12. It’s certainly an impressive oppressive atmosphere. I think the idea of a land of hostile intelligent monkeys from the quest gave me a nightmare one night. Just the once though thankfully.
I had nightmares too 😂
Best OSRS series on UA-cam right now. Been binging the hell out of it
Man the Ninja Monkey bones mistake was so damn funny for me, gave me a proper laugh thanks man
I am impressed you made that puzzle at the beginning look so easy
this is such an awesome series - so underrated!
More like undiscovered, I don't think anyone has hated the series for other than some minor usage of plugins (which didn't help in guiding him, just added quality of life to the game.)
When I did this quest as a kid, I had to ask my grandma to do the sliding puzzle for me since I was definitely not about to pay the 200k to skip it, and had no idea how to solve a slider
I've learned more about these quests from your videos than when I completed them. Younger me didn't have time to read, had to get the scimmy
this might be the best runescape series on going right now. this is true runescape! thank you for being you
Thank you for the kind words!
Nice work! This one's a nightmare guideless. I made the same mistake of stealing from the crafting stall for WAY too long. Fun fact, you don't actually have to give the child 20 bananas -- he can't count, so you can just give him 8 or so and lie to him lmao.
Looking forward to Monkey Madness 2... have fun with that one.
Haha no way, that’s great 😂
@@AlienFoodage Oh, quick tip (no spoilers, just general advice): I found double-checking the skill requirements in the questlog helpful when I got stuck. E.g. looking at the Monkey Madness questlog and seeing no Thieving requirement would have shown that stealing from the crafting stall wasn't the intended solution. Helped me out a few times, though unfortunately I didn't think of it until after this quest.
I did actually do that! But I also dont trust the quest guide to sometimes have all the info 😂 but yeah that was in the back of mind, wasnt sure if those stalls had thieving reqs though. Appreciate the tip though!
@@stephenberg6438 the problem is sometimes there are hidden requirements for ironmen. In an earlier episode he needed a blessed holy symbol for Animal Magnetism but 31 prayer isn't a hard requirement to start the quest nor is it said anywhere in the quest guide. It was also a problem for DT1 since that one requires magic logs and other than a very obscure method in legends quest (which he didn't do and you can't go back on after completion) you're shit out of luck without 75 woodcutting. There are other methods but they would also be similarly obscure on a guideless account. Always a good idea to get skills up though, they don't go away and are useful elsewhere.
You nailed that puzzle like an absolute pro!
Ive honestly been waiting for this and when i saw it was almost an hour long i was soo happy. Love this content mate and all the hard work you put into all of it! Keep it up
Thank you mate!
Can't wait to see you tackle the puzzle rooms for this upcoming quest and the white knights. Best of luck!
Thank you!
genuinely the best osrs content out there right now! its on par with swampletics in my opinion!
Wow, high praise, thank you!
Yo man, I'm absolutely loving this content, please keep uploading this!
36:50 If you talk to the scimitar salesman in Al-Kharid before you do the quest he has an interesting dialogue if you ask about buying dragon scimitars where he says You'll be a monkeys uncle before I ever sell you a dragon scimitar.
The comedic timing of 45:28 when you ended up in the agility course was perfect.
This is where I’m up to in the series, 17min in and I had to pause the video. Came back a few hours later to finish it and new Settled video just drops. And yet I’m enjoying this far more tbh. Awesome series
Dude this shit is so interesting, you are legend and may end with the best understanding of the game out of any player. Major props
a crazy adventure, truely impressive well done!
That was a journey - thank you for sharing your odyssey :)
Why is it so satisfying to watch a ge played as its meant to be played? This is just an over-edited lets play but there are so few series' of this type that I love it ❤
Glad you enjoyed! Thank you
I dont know if its just not a saying in your part of the world, but I was so surprised when you didnt immediately realize the phrase "I'm a monkeys uncle" lol
you should always take graceful, you cant lose it with how graves work now. if your grave expires it goes to deaths office in lumby graveyard
Between you and Geowizard doing insane shit just because you could, the phrase "Get In!" has absolutely become a favorite.
I love how excited you are about using the crystal bow
Such a great quest and with a guide it can still be a bit rough a times. Your series makes learning and reading the quest texts fun too so I'm still binging them lol.
props bro, the rooftop navigation part is hard even with the runelite guide. gz brother
Wow.... It was funny as I was watching I realized that I have this quest "memorized" because I've followed quest guide on a few accounts! I realized that I had no idea WHY I knew the dentures were in the boxes below, or to make the amulet on the fire, or the whole monkey child situation. You really had to figure it out! very impressive
Great concept, great personality and great editing keep it up man, super enjoyable
Thank you :) that means a lot!
This series is awesome, keep em comin'!
The hero Old school needs.
I’m sad I started this series last night and within a day I’m caught up haha. Love it!
Haha wow, that’s dedication! I’m glad you enjoyed!!
Ayy, I am finally caught up it seems!
Man, Monkey Madness without a guide is brutal and I love it.
I want modern Jamflex to make more quests in this style where there is almost 0 handholding.
Saw the length of the video and figured it's going to be hilarious ( to us )
Again, quallity content! Please keep this series up for us!!
I stumbled upon this series because of a random Reddit comment. This is such a gem! I wish this was recommended to me sooner.
The absolute legend delivers!
Such a great series Keep it up man! Fond memories of those prison guard gorillas caving my head in
Thank you! 😂
I'm glad I'm not the only one who couldn't find the red control panel haha (still use a guide for some but you inspired me to not use one for the more iconic/well written quests)
Im ok with the longer episodes, thank you for this awesome content
This series is so much fun
Love this series ! Please don't stop this your doing great 😊
Thank you!
props on solving the slide puzzle that quick. i really suck at those without cheating
Nice job on the puzzle, man!
My favourite series man, love it! X
Thanks man
You may not remember, but we met at the fishing Guild recently and I asked if i watched your vids would i get the big shark, and you said yes. Just letting you know I went over 10k Sharks but episode 19 was the magic number. Deserves a Sub.
Yoooo of course I remember! Grats on the big shark brother
This is great man!
Fantastic content as always
Thanks mate
Man this brings back memories. Back in highschool I was the only kid of our group of RS nerds that actually completed Monkey Madness. Back then we all thought it was some incredibly difficult, high tier quest. Once I got it done, friends and classmates that played RS would pay/bribe me all kinds of ways for me to do it on their account, good times.
With a crystal bow and a Dscim you're basically unstoppable now! I believe I've said it before, your series is absolutely my favorite unique ironman. I respect how some IM's can stomach insane grinds, but I just love the novelty of you just adventuring as intended :)
Haha I never even attempted this quest as a kid, even lost city scared me too much.
Hell yeah, now I need some armour 👀
@@AlienFoodage I suppose becoming a Fremenik is gonna help in the armor department, huh 😉
By the way, have you thought of any solid ideas yet regarding potential lifelines / help? I imagine plenty of your viewers are willing to help without being too spoiler-y about it. "Worst" case just asking people in game, like you've done before, feels like a really appropriate method in line with the classic Runescape feel. I love how you progress the game, and I'd hate you running into another atrocious hard-to-get item that spoils the fun for you.
You bet ;)
Nothing for certain yet, although I’ve ruled out a point system with the reward being looking anything up. The only help will ever be from either asking or hints from you guys, I definitely think that’s the most authentic and in line with the series :)
Although fortunately i’ve not been near needing to use any sort of lifeline yet! Will only be a really last resort
Every time Alien Food says “monkey” take a drink
Great vid as per mate
Series is great! Keep it up!
Thank you!
Honestly cant wait for the fremmi stuff, love the viking vibe
hell yeah he's back!
Hahaha that ninja part had me rolling
I liked that you called the monkey merchant a person.
More hour long eps please this series is so interesting
hyped as hell!
I wish I could not know what I know and try this way of playing. I only get to experience this with new quests and even then I have all the facilities to make it as painless and easy as possible!
I have been waiting for this. I am ready.
i didn't know this, but if you actually did run past those guards to climb up the ladder to the south east of the monkey village, you would have been able to go back to the crash island from there! Basically all guides just have you teleport out, but it's good that they put this option there for people not using teleports.
This is amazing content
I just beat this quest myself, and even with a guide it was a pain in the ass. I actually guzzled more potions during this one quest than I have in the rest of my account's lifetime.
aww yes, more content
Wow I think you’re the only person who found the picture of the puzzle. I never knew or read on a guide
The rage at @43:00 feels so pure
36:10 did they change how those guards worked? I remember getting trapped between a bunch of guards back in the day and dying once i ran out of prayer points cuz i couldn’t run through them
Nah I got trapped a few times too, think they’re a bit inconsistent
OH LORDY LORDY THIS IS IT this is What We've Been Waiting 🎉😮😀
