Game Theory: Don't Listen To Her! (Amanda The Adventurer)

Special thanks to SoFi for sponsoring the video!

Friends, today we're FINALLY doing our theory on Amanda The Adventurer, the full game! We've covered Amanda before but it was WAY back in the demo phase. Now that the FULL game is out there is SO much more to theorize about. Everything from Wooly, to Sam Colton to Hamelin, it ALL needs to be solved... and I know JUST the guy to do it!

Amanda: Answer my question.
Wooly: You don’t have to answer that.
Matpat: I don’t have to answer every question, but as a theorist, I have to.

The Pied Piper story is such a fun idea for an indie horror game, I’m so glad this game is doing it justice!

[whentherookbirdsings]

I find it odd that during the credits you never see who plays Wooly, leading more to a mystery about who he is

[Bee_likesbread]

it is hinted that rebecca's mother was a cannibal and saw her mom eat one of her siblings when sam talks about how she had a rough past and at the farm she talks about how "some mommies eat their babies"

[cerealisasoup]

Amanda sounds like one of those kids in kindergarten who'll go batshit crazy if you don't give her a Dino nuggie when she asks you.

[sanna]

I love how game theory intros are always so personalised to the theory and so detailed and complicated

[BarksWolfy]

The idea that Wooly could be Sam also sounds plausible due to his behavior in the farm video too. When Amanda calls Wooly a sheep or an animal, he usually looks really surprised to receive that information. He is also caught off guard when you use the word “Sam” instead of “Rooster” for the chicken bit, like he immediately knew that name and was wondering how you found it.

[IVPND]

The only thing I probably disagree about his theory is that Wooly is Sam. I see where you’re going with it, but judging by the some scenes, Wooly is definitely not the innocent one. When Amanda talks about something dark in the tapes, Wooly tries to change the subject, leading her off the track that she’s Rebecca. That seems to me like he’s trying to keep her from remembering who she is, not helping her calm down. Also, it’s only when Wooly gets killed off in the end when Amanda says “she’s out there”. That’s because he isn’t there anymore to manipulate her anymore. With Wooly gone, she can think for herself and realize who she is.

[Watermelie]

The fact that the creators had the creativity to add a pied-piper reference and added hidden names of demons in the game is incredible. You can see exactly how much effort they put into the game, from a small 10 minute gameplay to a whole hour of gameplay full of LORE! Honestly, I don't think I could've thought of a game with as much creativity and lore as this.

[IllegalCheeseCake.]

tbh, wooly seems more like an employee trying to keep the demon under control than a parent trying to keep his kid calm and happy.

[cobaltprime]

I really am glad that Sam wasn’t the villain. That he was genuine in his love for Rebecca and his show.

[fahadmohamud]

Matpat I know some lore to share

U know when Amanda said "I'm out there... somewhere" it links to the part when she said "sometimes I feel rotting but it feels far away" meaning Amanda is rotting out there

I might know where.

Before this version of the game came out there was a demo, in that demo it had a tape that tape had map or a location so that must mean that Amanda or Rebecca body is there

Another piece of lore is Amanda can't get out in a human form only in her demonic form because her actual body is dying/rotting

[TimeBucks]

The intro to this episode is actually fantastic.

[geminajamart]

Personally, I think Wooly is a stand-in for the execs at Hamln. Whenever Amanda (Rebecca) breaks character and starts thinking about topics outside the script, Wooly will try and distract her and get her back on track. He doesn't want her to go off the beaten path, so he shuts her up. He's a wolf in sheep's clothing, trying to pull the wool over the player's eyes. Amanda DOES, however, occasionally snap back and silence Wooly. It's only when Amanda overpowers Wooly and takes him out (and turns him into sausage...) that she feels safe sharing her secret with the player. Alternatively, she only asks the player to help the lonely kitten after Wooly is out of her ear

[LefTea]

The Pied Piper is originally in german called Der Rattenfänger von Hameln. So actually it is called Hameln. The company didn't even change the name.

[DuneGamer]

Fun fact: if you turn and walk to your left from spawn you will find a pile of books with one of them having a secret message that I’ve decoded to say “who is wooly” which furthermore proves that wooly isn’t just some sheep

[kye_the_possum]

“You don’t have to do this..”
“Give me the lore, and I won’t!!”
The summary of basically every single Game Theory.

[Aladite]

I feel like Sam isn't exactly Wooly, because in the farm scene where Amanda asks what the father chicken is called, if you type sam, the barn in the background looks directly at you. And it really looks like that barn knows whats all going on, seeing as it's not at all like the other objects with eyes on them. Heavily breathing, eyes bloodshot, and in pure torment

[Crow_withaphone]

Just had a random thought-
In the barn animals tape, when Amanda calls woolie a sheep and he looks offended- If we're following this theory I feel like that could be Amanda calling woolie -aka her dad- a follower and basically "calling him out" for allowing Amanda to be put in the show until it was far too late to turn back
I dunno, just an idea

[joshacd]

The fact that MatPat was able to pick up on that Pied Piper refference almost instantly is just insane to me 💯✊
