Strike three.

I have concluded that this show just isn't for me, and I'll stop watching it now instead of watching many episodes I don't enjoy like I did with game dogs.

Cookie for reference

once again, it's like two different people (or groups) are put to work on the two separate halves of the show.

First part: clever, original, funny, entertaining. GREAT

Second part: entertaining, and i have to admit to laughing at least once. Acceptable

The downloadable flashlight had me Loling pretty good. Great work guys; especially the box. Huge improvement over last week.

Its my snake in a box!
Sorry I couldn't help myself, I didn't see the block coming so that was funny and the Snake bit was pure fried gold, the Gamesterabtion part was ok I guess.

That invisible cube part wasn't really good. Didn't even get it. But the rest, ah, it keeps amusing me. Keep 'em coming!

Honestly, I think that the concept behind Darkest Day Ever could actually work if a developer implemented it well. I'd add in a light source the player could use, though. Nothing like a flashlight. More along the lines of a candle, where it'll run out eventually, and isn't very bright or far-reaching. Maybe there could be hidden breaker boxes (like, achievement/trophy-worthy kind of hidden) that might light up parts of certain areas.

Shoot, we need innovation, so why the hell not?

It referenced the hidden "?" blocks notorious for being hidden in Super Mario games. They're also commonly used by amateur ROM hackers to make you fall in a pit.

Oh man that was awesome.

Although I think that the line 'let me show you the rest of the place' would have been even funnier if there was nothing there. Just... more box.

OMG Snake box is a TARDIS! So I guessing he doesn't smoke inside it unless he got some cardboard box insurances. Just how much cardboards did you use to make that scene?
ninja'd by first post :p
also for Darkest Day Ever, the correct amount of luminosity is turning your tv screen off XD

Okay episode, I think.

All the sketches are getting there, almost hitting their marks. It's good, willing to see how good it can get.

Although, with the general consensus; it's pretty hard to beat LBP. And it'll get boring fast if you try to recreate something similar.

This episode really cemented my viewership of your show. I liked your style from the beginning and enjoyed the first few episodes enough, but this episode won me over. I'll be watching you as long as you're on The Escapist.

I think you just basically described Amnesia: The Dark Descent, if you replace carryable candle with lamp that runs out of oil, and breaker boxees with tinderboxes used to light candles on the wall. I think this sketch was actually somewhat poking fun at Amnesia, along with other survival horror games.

As usual, there are some great ideas here but they're poorly executed. Each of the sketches this week had an absolutely brilliant concept behind it but didn't come close to using the full potential of the idea. There were a few laughs, particularly the hopscotch sketch which was unexpected, but you could do so much better! It saddens me that this show is missing out on what could be something exceptional. As it is, it's very hit and miss. An idea for a sketch isn't enough on its own, you need to follow it through. I seriously think that a bit more effort on the writing would go a long way here, or possibly the editing (not sure quite what it is but it's a bit off). No complaints about the acting either, the Snake impersonation was rather good and you clearly put some time into making that cardboard set. Just keep working at it, I know there's some comedy gold in here somewhere.
