Ryan North wrote the script, he also wrote the Squirrel Girl comics which I'm a big fan of. I was so stoked to find out he wrote the script! or dialogue
@@AM-if2bq 11 months incorrect my friend, Die is purely singular and Dice is purely multiples, using Dice for singular would be grammatically incorrect
This art style is fantastic, it puts me in mind of artwork by Tim Burton, and Lanka Studios (Boxtrolls, Coraline, etc), and there's some lush world-building going on here that makes it a genuine joy to watch the story unfold! The sound design, and the voice acting, casting, and direction are really top-notch, too. Pretty cool combat mechanics. I like the music, too. Has a definite Danny Elfman/Peter McConnell vibe to it.
Agreed! I was getting STRONG Nightmare Before Christmas vibes, especially in Two-Town. Like, the guy who was all joyful and then depressed reminded me of the mayor of Halloween-town.
Sean quietly shuffling in with the coffee was precious lol! I really love the look of this game, I'm a big fan of the Nightmare Before Christmas as well. I hope to get this on the Switch and play it myself. The upside down mayor's voice is awesome!
This game is so adorable and funny haha, some scenes like where Even and Dicey scream at each other and how the music syncs with the characters reminds me of some old cartoon skits. Think I might get it myself too ^^
LOL, it was by a mere few minutes that I was just about to search a gameplay for this series, and your timing for uploading this video can never be more than perfect. Thank you.
I was thinking about getting this game just yesterday but the trailers looked like it's not really up to my play style and then I went on your twitch and saw this episode and it changed my mind. I'll be getting this game soon. And the style is soooo Alice Madness combined with Little Nightmares. It's gorgeous! And the story so far is amazing.
Yeah, I really wish they'd release another trailer showing off more game play than just story/cutscenes (although that trailer was pretty cool looking not gonna lie)
Wow.. Astrid Lindentwig, twig in Swedish is gren, Astrid Lindgren, that's cool. I assume the creators of this game are Swedish, haha. The woman who wrote many Swedish famous tales and stories, one being *Pippi Longstocking* which I'm sure most people know about outside of Sweden as well.
Yeah it's called pippi langstrumpf in germany it was a great show/movie can't remember if there was a life action show or just the movies and my parents read the book to me when i was a child it was great
After watching this I really wanted to play the game myself, I bought it and played for like 8 or 9 hours yesterday. It's so beautiful and I love how the narrator is his own character. It's so funny in parts too and I never heard about it before seeing this, so thank you :)
This game reminds me so much of American McGees Alice: Madness Returns. Everything from the sounds, the font of the lettering, the steampunk meets Tim Burton-esque style. I'm really interested now in getting this game now
Now I know why I like this...Its giving major Tim Burton vibes! You can find a twin for all the characters in this game in a film like Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, etc.
i am in love with this! The gameplay is interesting, the art style is absolutely AMAZING, and the fact that you are enjoying it so much makes me love it even more. I can't wait to see more of this.
Not only is the art style great, but I like the story line too. It reminds me of Hunger Games, like how there are 12 districts and you are chosen to go to the games. And in this you roll the dice to see where you will go. When Odd first rolled the dice, she landed on 1 and that's why the family looked relieved because she would stay in OneCroft with them. But as the narrator said, she would be a Sixer and live with the Queen. I think the concept for a world like that is a cool idea.
I swear, I could practically hear the record scratch during the "We share each other's... - Husbands! - wait what" bit. That was absolutely not what I expected to hear at that moment.
That combat system is so unique. I've been looking for games with unique fighting mechanics and I'm totally gonna get this! Maybe even try to convince my boyfriend to get it, I feel like he'd enjoy it too.
It's kind of funny. The Merchant seems like a cartoon version of the creepy Baron in REsident Evil Village. And the voices of the characters. I wonder if they hired the same people who voiced Plague Requiem. Haha!
Playing through this myself so I couldn't watch the live stream as to not spoil it for myself. I'm about 9 hours into it. Glad you are releasing these as UA-cam videos. Looking forward to seeing these as they come.
The art style is amazing. Im so glad you are playing this game. The characters are great, great voice acting, just amazing. I hope others play this game too! Like jack and mark. Yall are my fav trio lol.
1:47:03 I don't know why I found this so funny. In a game about magical dice and strange looking people, Gab is concerned about how this guy's arms work. He's literally got two faces? 😂 ❤️❤️❤️
Yes! I watched you play this on twitch and have been waiting for you to post it on UA-cam this game is amazing probably one of my favorite art styles I've seen and the combat is so interesting. Thanks for playing it gab I never would have known about it otherwise
OMG! I absolutely LOVED this game! Everything about it was phenomenal. The battle mechanics, the graphics, the sound design, the story telling, the art style, everything was just wonderful. One of my favorite games from the last few years. It was just. So. Good. 😁 can't wait to see how this play through goes! 🥰
The art style is astonishing! Looks like a mixture of Tim Burton meets Little Nightmares. As well as various others. Almost 6 minutes in and I can’t wait to see how the story goes!
hey Evelyn! Thank you so much for introducing such a beautiful game to us! Just one thing though, are you gonna tell us what Sean was cooking? I'm really curious. Haha
Hi Gab, I just wanted to say thank you for some of the best videos on UA-cam. I just found your channel earlier this year and I love it so much. Your videos brighten my days. Luv yah hun, Emmy💜
This totally reminds me of Tim Burton's style of movies; Nightmare before Christmas and Corpse Bride, among others. I wouldn't be surprised if the developers took inspiration from him.
Me (half) a year ago: I'm watching old BOTW vids + daily uploads + other UA-cam vids. Man, if only the videos were longer! Me now: OH GOD I CANT KEEP UP I still love the vids❤❤❤
After watching this I decided to play it for myself and I'm loving it! I know I'm late, but I look forward to watching the rest after I finish it! Thank you for showing it off!
Ive rewatched ur alice madness returns series 3 times now and im so happy another game like that has come out and you're doing a series on it!!! I love the style of this game and the story is so good so far! I'm so excited to binge this series! Love ya Gabs!!
The dialogue is hilarious! I'm not a huge fan of the combat, unique as it is, but the story and characters are more than interesting enough to keep me hooked.
Royam is officially my favorite character. While he may be bad and a total villain, I find his character design and voice will make a killing. Though he's slightly spooky and strangely wants to rhyme, I find that while listening to him I have a great time. Oh shit..Now I'm rhyming...
Good thing you don't live in Two-Town, else your own thoughts might be made manifest into a bad reflection of the bad parts of the self, like Royam there. This game has a number of memorable characters to offer besides Royam, however! I especially recommend looking up the song Roll That Dicey that was made for Fourburg-- after you have seen what transpires there yourself, of course. Spoilers suck.
Hi, After watching 20 minutes of the gameplay. With all the strange people around. It reminded of A darker version of Alice in Wonderland. Stay safe from Covid-19 to you and your loved ones.
Finally started this game yesterday, since it was on sale, and seriously CAN'T STOP PLAYING!! I haven't had this much fun with a game in quite a while.
this game is delightful! The art is great, the voice actors, but I especially like the world building and plot :) I love a game with a good story, and not too convoluded either its easy to understand
Thank you, thank you for playing this game. Why aren't more people playing it? The story is wonderfully written, so many details even in the dialogue and I love the fighting system.
So much Tim Burton vibes as well with this, definitely a lot of inspiration from those films with the character design, backgrounds are very Alice: Madness Returns as well like you said. So cool!
Sean coming in a bringing her coffee and making food in the background is so fucking cute and wholesome, I love these two 😊 Lovely game so far! Very charming! Definitely enjoying watching your playthrough!
I gotta admit I watched Gab yrs ago then life and looking after my boys took over and a few months ago I was recommended one of her videos and it took me to a happy place and been watching her ever since, only on UA-cam tho! She makes me smile!
@@StephLillibet yea I love her energy and how she does what makes her happy. It really impacts video quality when they do something that they want. Shes truly blessed
Everyone's talking about the art and music, but the scriptwriting and voice acting here is better than a lot of AAA games.
I deffinetly agree. And the dialogue is funny too
Fuck it reminds me of that game Stanley’s Parable with the narrator!! I think ot might be the same voice actor even, but I can’t quite tell
I love it!
That's a low bar though tbh
Ryan North wrote the script, he also wrote the Squirrel Girl comics which I'm a big fan of. I was so stoked to find out he wrote the script! or dialogue
Evelyn getting confused about die vs. dice, and I’m just sitting here like “This is exactly why I just call them math rocks at this point”.
But what is the correct term?
@@AM-if2bq 11 months incorrect my friend, Die is purely singular and Dice is purely multiples, using Dice for singular would be grammatically incorrect
@@TheGateShallStandOxford dictionary states that dice can be singular and plural where Die is singular only.
@@phalanxiatheroan863 Oxford also put "Rizz" into their dictionary, so I have a certain distrust for everything they decide to write down.
@@TheGateShallStand we may love it or hate it but that is how language evolves.

*Laika Studios*
*Laika Studios*
My dad works there.
I thought the same thing!!! Tim Burton vibes but it’s also giving me James and The Giant Peach vibes, along with a tiny bit of Unraveled
"take one of these bad boyyyyyssss" ☂️.
Herman made me crack up too. I had never even heard anything about this game but I'm loving it.
I say that too hahahah, I never thought this game will say it lol 😆
@@charmingsaffy4988 samesies, I just didn't expect it in a game.
Sean quietly shuffling in with the coffee was precious lol! I really love the look of this game, I'm a big fan of the Nightmare Before Christmas as well. I hope to get this on the Switch and play it myself. The upside down mayor's voice is awesome!
53:18
A moment as adorable as the game itself! Also, the humor, accent and timbre of *this* Narrator reminds me of the Narrator in The Stanley Parable.
💚🤗🤗💚
Hope this becomes a full series. Theory: what if Dicey is his last name and his first is Jackspe?
good one. made me slap my table.
You win this comment section lol
@@jbtfp made me whip the like button
its been 2 years, im still rewatching this gameplay!!!! this has been my favorite game gab played until now. its so unique and interesting
Why is Herman such a vibe? His a fun character now “Take one of theses bad boissssss…”
This game is so adorable and funny haha, some scenes like where Even and Dicey scream at each other and how the music syncs with the characters reminds me of some old cartoon skits. Think I might get it myself too ^^
I love this game! It's so cute! It's like the perfect blend of nightmare before Christmas, Alice games, and Little Nightmares
TRUE ❤
@@TheHalloweenSpirit so true I'm probably going to get because when I first just saw it reminded me of little nightmares vibes
The art style reminds me of alice the madness returns- it's so beautiful!
I immediately thought that too!!! the Alice series is my favourite so I’m sure I’ll enjoy this too :)
I was gonna say that too. But I thought it was just me🤣
This world is like wonderland if it was given rules.
Random rules.
I love it so much ❤️
The dice is freaking adorable!!
LOL, it was by a mere few minutes that I was just about to search a gameplay for this series, and your timing for uploading this video can never be more than perfect. Thank you.
SameXD when i saw the little dice i was already intreged:p.
The card seller being a walking store is fascinating, just don't ask him if he's got anything in the back.
He does but the cards there aren’t exactly mint condition
The art style is beautiful, I'm looking forward to watching this play through!
The person that commented that this game didn't have enough color is major DOUCHE CANOE!
reminds me of little nightmares and alice in madness
I was thinking about getting this game just yesterday but the trailers looked like it's not really up to my play style and then I went on your twitch and saw this episode and it changed my mind. I'll be getting this game soon. And the style is soooo Alice Madness combined with Little Nightmares. It's gorgeous! And the story so far is amazing.
Yeah, I really wish they'd release another trailer showing off more game play than just story/cutscenes (although that trailer was pretty cool looking not gonna lie)
I'm glad I'm not the only one who was getting some huge Alice vibes! 💜
Hope you enjoy it!
Wow.. Astrid Lindentwig, twig in Swedish is gren, Astrid Lindgren, that's cool. I assume the creators of this game are Swedish, haha.
The woman who wrote many Swedish famous tales and stories, one being *Pippi Longstocking* which I'm sure most people know about outside of Sweden as well.
Zoink! is indeed Swedish. Gothenburg I think. I also loved the Astrid Lindgren reference! :D
Oh I just commented about the same thing! That is so cool, Astrids tales are the best ones! 😁
Yeah it's called pippi langstrumpf in germany it was a great show/movie can't remember if there was a life action show or just the movies and my parents read the book to me when i was a child it was great
After watching this I really wanted to play the game myself, I bought it and played for like 8 or 9 hours yesterday. It's so beautiful and I love how the narrator is his own character. It's so funny in parts too and I never heard about it before seeing this, so thank you :)
Cannot wait to see more of this game! I’m so into this world and the plot, also dicey and even are adorable!
This game reminds me so much of American McGees Alice: Madness Returns. Everything from the sounds, the font of the lettering, the steampunk meets Tim Burton-esque style. I'm really interested now in getting this game now
Now I know why I like this...Its giving major Tim Burton vibes! You can find a twin for all the characters in this game in a film like Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, etc.

it reminds me of alice: madness returns with the colors of ori! Looking forward to it!!
I swear, I could practically hear the record scratch during the "We share each other's... - Husbands! - wait what" bit. That was absolutely not what I expected to hear at that moment.
Bout 30min in. Absolutely love it! Thanks so much for playing this ^^
I'm so happy that you're playing this game! really thought of you when i saw the trailer!!!
This is so cool! Sharing your love for the aesthetic and art style. Nightmare before Christmas vibes I love 💕
I missed all the streams, so excited to watch the whole playthrough here!
That combat system is so unique. I've been looking for games with unique fighting mechanics and I'm totally gonna get this! Maybe even try to convince my boyfriend to get it, I feel like he'd enjoy it too.
Aww, Sean ❤ What a freaking sweetie bringing you coffee ☕
Mmm, that good dirty bean water
This is cute and fun, I love graphic, the voice act, and the battle system. Amazing
This is giving me MAJOR Boxtrolls vibes and I'm loving it.

i love this!!!!! you can tell the creators really did a thoughtful job of building an interesting world
hey Evelyn! Thank you so much for introducing such a beautiful game to us! Just one thing though, are you gonna tell us what Sean was cooking? I'm really curious. Haha
Same lol
Hi Gab,
I just wanted to say thank you for some of the best videos on UA-cam. I just found your channel earlier this year and I love it so much. Your videos brighten my days.
Luv yah hun,
Emmy💜
This was like watching a movie! Gives me coraline and nightmare before Christmas vibes!
This game looks fantastic! I love the artstyle and the cards mechanics looks really interesting. Great playthrough!
This totally reminds me of Tim Burton's style of movies; Nightmare before Christmas and Corpse Bride, among others. I wouldn't be surprised if the developers took inspiration from him.
This is giving such alice in wonderland madness returns vibes with borderline horrific, uncomfortable type art but wonderful scenery design
Awh this game is adorable, love the art style as well! Looking forward to the next episode :)
This game looks so amazing! I wanted it even before I saw this, but now I must have it! The atmosphere is incredible!
Me (half) a year ago: I'm watching old BOTW vids + daily uploads + other UA-cam vids. Man, if only the videos were longer!
Me now: OH GOD I CANT KEEP UP
I still love the vids❤❤❤

The teapot houses, the matchbox bed that sardine can bed. This is giving me total borrowers vibes.😊💖
Take a drink every time Gab says something is cute 😆
I cannot wait for part 2! You always make the most tedious of tasks bearable
This game, is a delight! 🤣 The Narrator is awesome.
The dialogue is killing me it's SO FUNNY
the HUMOUR is so funny
The dialogue is hilarious! I'm not a huge fan of the combat, unique as it is, but the story and characters are more than interesting enough to keep me hooked.
This game is like if Tim Burton made a game mixing his movie Nightmare Before Christmas in it .....really cool game!
Nanny Fortuna looks like Burgermeister Meisterburger 😂🤣
This whole game is very Tim Burton...y. I really look forward to the rest of this!
37:35 - Anyone else notice, her mother says "We'll never leave you again", but the subtitles say "We'll never _let you leave_ again."
Royam is officially my favorite character. While he may be bad and a total villain, I find his character design and voice will make a killing. Though he's slightly spooky and strangely wants to rhyme, I find that while listening to him I have a great time. Oh shit..Now I'm rhyming...

I feel like watching a movie while loving the visuals of the game. I also love the fact the name of two siblings are Odd and Even. haha!

Jack: WUT?
Finally started this game yesterday, since it was on sale, and seriously CAN'T STOP PLAYING!! I haven't had this much fun with a game in quite a while.
Cool to see you checking this one out too:) I picked it up a few days ago and had a great time so far. Has a few creepy parts like Coraline
this game is delightful! The art is great, the voice actors, but I especially like the world building and plot :) I love a game with a good story, and not too convoluded either its easy to understand

Who ever gets to watch this series alllll together….. I envy you
Top notch voice acting to be sure.
I really wanted to watch this gameplay but wasn't intrigued to watch others stream it but when I saw gab uploaded it I was so happy 😁😁❤️
IT'S A PLAYABLE TIM BURTON FILM WITH A NARRATOR THAT HEAVILY GIVES ZEFRANK VIBES
Need more of this! It's amazing and I'm obsessed!
You should absolutely check out Eastward, as well! Oh my god, the art style, music, and story so far are absolutely amazing.
this game animation gives me such a nostalgic feeling
0.0 adding this to my watch later playlist since I'm going to try and buy this
next week so I can play while watching XD
Loving this so far! It's also giving me some Maize(the sentient corn game) vibes!
artstyle reminds me a lot of Coraline. or Psychonauts, or 9!
I was thinking Psychonauts too!
@__naddi_ and yeah! definitely madness returns. the little dice suit she was wearing during the dream sequence reminds me of the card knights!
Pretty sure Bernard’s voice actor is the same who does whyborn!
This Game looks so sick. I can’t wait for the next part.
Seriously! What a cool game! I hope to see more! the art style is amazing! and the voice acting is great!
James & The Giant Peach vibes. If you haven't seen it you might want to.
Hiii!! I know I’m so late but this is fantastic. I just started watching your videos and your voice is just so nice to watch things to. Thank you!!!
I love this it reminds me of nightmares before Christmas and little nightmares. Also think of treasure planet when she does the voice love that move.
This has huge Madness Returns vibes, I'd love to play it ♡
Sean coming in a bringing her coffee and making food in the background is so fucking cute and wholesome, I love these two 😊
Lovely game so far! Very charming! Definitely enjoying watching your playthrough!
This is adorable! It's like you're playing a dark Pixar movie 😂😂😂
One recurring musical theme is so close to the opening riff of Happiness is a Warm Gun (The Beatles) that it sometimes genuinely distracts me
Avast me hearties !
It's talk like a pirate day aaaarrgh ☠️ 🥃
yay so happy!! havent been watching for 2 months now i can
