[00:00:00] S0: For those who want to know, again, this is the main portfolio. So this game is already making more than Lands of Jail if you compare it with Lands of Jail. Lands of Jail, if I understand correctly, is on a bit of a downturn these days. Let me Is everything you're going into this game, Yeah. Yeah. Of course.

[00:01:39] S3: I'm Felix Braberg. Well, I might as well be muted on this episode because, know, I'll just sit here and look pretty. [00:01:50] S2: Yeah. Fair enough. Actually, I'll do a quiz one this time. Oh. [00:01:55] S0: What ASMR? [00:01:57] S2: Yeah. No. No. No. Just moving the mic so everybody can see our amazing logo on the mic. Anyway, so it's Forex. [00:02:10] S0: It's very different Forex. [00:02:12] S3: Yeah. You finally innovated, No? [00:02:14] S0: Yes. These guys finally innovate. They innovated before. For those who don't know, [00:02:18] S4: this is coming from the well known Forex guys that did Lands of [00:02:23] S0: Jail, which we all loved here, and especially their ads, which you guys loved even [00:02:28] S3: the war. Hated, but... [00:02:29] S2: Yeah. Yeah. You had... Yeah. I mean, we loved it to certain Yeah. And [00:02:36] S3: so I was like, what is he doing showing these ads? [00:02:39] S2: Honestly, I didn't even realize like this is from Lands of Jail, guys. [00:02:43] S0: Yeah. It is. I'll show numbers after. You understand. [00:02:46] S2: Yeah. Of course. Like, [00:02:48] S0: as Lands of Jail already innovated a lot with their onboarding and with their whole like it's still frozen city but it tries to look like prison architect and all these other games and so on and so forth. So, they have the prison team. So, this game innovates even more. I mean, drastically more. [00:03:05] S2: Evening more. [00:03:06] S0: Last time, we had something like this, like this strong of your innovation was when we had Top Girl. [00:03:14] S5: Oh.

What's what's happening here? The game starts with bunch of mini games. First one is the fishing one. Yeah. Very actually [00:03:37] S2: common for everybody to use fishing these days. [00:03:40] S0: Yeah. Don't know what's happening with fishing. Let me just produce some more stuff so we get rid of fish because my warehouse is full. [00:03:48] S3: Oh, cool. [00:03:48] S0: Yeah. We do fishing, it's like very easy fishing game where we need to turn off auto. Where you fish and, like, you... Again, you get these resources, and again, you get fish, but at some point, there's, like, fish, how are you gonna go like a real minigame, and we need to first see it because sometimes it takes time.

But whatever... Basically, what would happen here that I would get, like, a big fish... Oh, here we go. Big fish, need I to do this kind of bar, and then I get the fish. I get some kind of pop up whatever, and then you never fucking use it after like twenty eight minutes when you automate it, and you press auto and goodbye. That's it. Yeah. [00:05:31] S2: See you whenever. [00:05:31] S0: Next one is this scavenger's thing where you need to scavenge stuff, and you actually need to, like, go here and, like, the storage is full, so we can only go for plastic. Oh, no worries. We just need to find plastic. See? The plastic is okay. And you need to also steer away from sharks and fish that do stuff. And again, you automate it, basically, because

Oh, no worries. We just need to find plastic. See? The plastic is okay. And you need to also steer away from sharks and fish that do stuff. And again, you automate it, basically, because [00:05:54] S3: Let me guess. This is a UA creative as well. [00:05:57] S2: They have I [00:05:58] S3: can clear the plastics in the ocean. I could see how that gets low CPM. [00:06:02] S0: It's survival, man. It's not about ecology. [00:06:04] S2: Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly, Like, this is four x. It's it's not really ecology. Yeah. It's... [00:06:09] S4: We leave the charity [00:06:10] S0: for someone else. [00:06:11] S2: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But on paper, that looks... Yeah. That works. On paper, oh my god. That's amazing. Yeah. Sure. Sure. [00:06:15] S0: So that's the other mini game. Then, we have actually a third mini game which is this diving thing which I don't even remember how to trigger it now. Mhmm. Diving. Diving. Go. Oh, they have to dive. [00:06:30] S4: It's like [00:06:30] S0: Dave the Diver. Yeah, actually. Looks like Dave the Diver. You just go here and you need to like pick up stuff and like do whatever things you upgrade something a little bit. You see like I have 200 ks gold for like 300 and upgrade. You see this is meaningless basically. Yeah. Can auto it. [00:06:48] S3: Your first telltale sign that you're in a Forex.

[00:06:48] S3: Your first telltale sign that you're in a Forex. [00:06:51] S0: So you automate it and like, yeah, let's leave this guy to it. So that's there. Then you also can pick up stuff around base, and it tells you, but I think I kinda cleaned it. So... Oh, yeah. Here's some crap. So... Okay. Go, guys. Pick it up. And then here's some more crap somewhere or whatever. So I cleaned it up anyway, and that's it. So what happens afterwards is you start to get these buildings, and they need to produce stuff, like fresh water. First you start with this sushi which this we will get rid of because sushi is like one [00:07:26] S3: The artwork here is like no other Forex. The artwork was also like no other Forex. It's crazy. [00:07:32] S0: No other Forex. [00:07:34] S4: Yeah. [00:07:35] S0: Honestly, I hate the artwork because it knows my style, but it's... Definitely... Love it. Love it. Yes. Actually love it too. Guess. AB test most probably loved it too. So so you have this. You can also auto produce, which is quite interesting because it gives you first two hours for free, then you can rent for eight hours always or permanently unlock for an offer. So this is very good. So we can do this, then we just enable auto and we don't need to click because there's like a shit ton of clicking. And then you see where this is going. So we get sushi, then we get seawater, then we get another types of fish. So anybody wanna tell me which game is this? [00:08:18] S3: Lands of Jail? [00:08:19] S0: No. [00:08:22] S2: It's Frozen City again. [00:08:24] S0: No. Resource Puzzle.
