The Most DANGEROUS Board Game On Cartoon Network

Жыл бұрын

The Game from The Amazing World of Gumball features a game so dangerous that I'd bet it is the most dangerous board game to ever be featured in an animated show on Cartoon Network: Dodj or Daar. It's a game that can control reality, curse the people who play it indefinitely, and tear families apart, all in the name of some mindless fun. In today's episode of the Search for the Best Gumball episode, we are rounding out the 8th edition by speaking about The Game from season 2 of The Amazing World of Gumball.

The scariest part isn't just how dangerous it is, but the fact that it was actually created by Gumball and Darwin. They created something on par with Jumanji. Two kids who make a whole average human brain united were capable of threatening reality. Addendum. I actually read instruction manuals out if habit because many had lore.

One thing that I like about this episode is how it starts. Gumball is actually the responsible and reluctant one, while Nicole is the one more excited and less concerned. However, it's not out of character because Gumball knows how bad the game is, because he's experienced it, and Nicole wants to spend some quality time with the family. It's a nice switch up of roles that I can appreciate Personally, next I would cover The Master to round out the game-based trio. I think that's a highlight of season 6 for me. It's just so simple but works so well.

Imagine if a side affect of the game was to alter the eyes of those who play it, as they’ll never see it in the same light again. Gumball and Darwin are the first to change, as they already know, with the rest changing as the episode goes on. That would be a cool in universe explanation for the eyes.

This episode is definitely one of my favorites. Just a bunch of well paced jokes and clever concepts mushed together in an 11 minute episode. From meta bits like the ominous music being heard and invoked by the game itself, to the crazy dodges the characters are forced into, and some Gumball spins on classic dares, like the prank pizza. My favorite joke will always be Richard with the Donut Cop, though. Always manages to bring a smile to my face.

Only Gumball and Darwin knew it was dangerous, so what happened the first time they played? Or first few times. Nicole did mention how they used to play it, which would typically mean more then once.

i think what makes the plot of the episode interesting is that if they didn't take the game as seriously the episode would've been alot duller, since they had Darwin point out that everything that affects them is only as real as they believe it to be so it makes it sound like if they would've just treated it like a normal game none of that would've happened

I’m curious on the black magic that Gumball and Darwin used that granted its effects. Maybe they made it out of cardboard boxes bought from the Awesome Store, likely by Richard. Makes me wonder what would happen if the other people in Elmore got ahold of the game Also if you could have any cast of another cartoon/anime or game play Dodj or Daar, who would you go with? These would be my top 15 contenders 15. The Cuphead Show 14. Rick and Morty 13. Banjo-Kazooie 12. Spongebob 11. Persona 5 10. Family Guy 9. Aqua Teen Hunger Force 8. Kirby 7. Assassination Classroom 6. Food Wars 5. Digimon Ghost Game 4. South Park 3. Invader Zim 2. Demon Slayer 1. My Hero Academia
