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 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.
Makes sense that she gets mad when you don't pick the cookies and act like a brat
@Don't Read My Profile Picture bruh
or if you tell her you don't have any money when the ice cream man arrives
SO TRUE
You ain't lying
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.
E
i need to answer every question on games, food, films, and fashion: Says MatPat
@_Jovani_ it’s a bot pretending to be making fun of bots
@@EEEEEEEE E
no way you goy 2.4k in 2 hours bruh.
I find it odd that during the credits you never see who plays Wooly, leading more to a mystery about who he is
True!
O_O
In the game's credits, wooly is played by james Pratt. Either the or one of the game's creators.
@@shacharlem4424yes, but they mean in the fake "games" credits
Frfr
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.
Plus Amanda's Reaction of her more or less going "Wait, how do you know that?"
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.
I think Wooly is the demon, trying to keep Amanda on-script so they can keep the kidnappings going. I mean, the "Demon Amanda" that comes out to kill you has wool over her eyes, and in the "Don't help the kitten" ending, we see that happen. The entire background is gone except the Woolie model, though only limbs and a head, because his wool is infecting Amanda so she can attack.
@@dronz3881 thats unlikely because wooly is trying to keep amanda calm and not have murderous thoughts, which seems like the exact opposite of what the demon wants amanda to do. About the demon model, the wool is an interesting thing to point out but those could just be eyes and the demon has amanda's hair. The eyes do definitely look like wool and wooly's lack of wool in that tape does seem to connect so maybe the demon possesses both? Lastly, in the tape where Rebeca is chanting the names of the demons pretty much confirms that Rebeca (AKA Amanda) is possessed by the demon so it wouldn't make much sense for the demon to be in another body like wooly. The demon would have to be possessing the game instead which isn't implied in the game at all.
I saw a comment on another video pointing out the intro without wooly (the last coloring book tape), there's no intro music like all the others. instead, it's Amanda singing the intro music. no clue if it's anything at all but I found it interesting
@@IllegalCheeseCake. lots of parents were starting to not let their kids watch the show because the subject matter was getting weird, so I can understand why an employee would try to keep that type of content off the show. they want to reach as many kids as possible, cant do that when parents are shutting the television off
@@_WeDontKnow_ if the employee did that then why does the tapes still exist ..... Theory debunked. Try again
My favorite part about Amanda is that the plot is basically "What if you could actually give Dora the Wrong Directions?".
Commenting when the likes are 360
Max0r: "I gave Dora the wrong directions"
@@tamsyncranmer87 replying because nobody cares
And was possessed by a child and was controlled by a demon
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
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"
That's possible and horrible
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.
Yes, he tries to keep us and her away from the truth
yeah exactly
I think that's more to keep her from becoming the multi-eyed monster when she gets upset
i disagree, i think that whenever amanda gets sad or mad her entity starts to show so wooly tries to side track her so it keeps her entity at bay
Its a theory for a reason, he didnt say it was right, thats your own
The Pied Piper story is such a fun idea for an indie horror game, I’m so glad this game is doing it justice!
The what
Wait so you would be in the great land in the story called translyvania
I knew the start but they stopped there I think I was in grade 5
I'd recommend the society for you. It's a netflix series. The first episode is eh but then it really gets better
😂
Wooly sounds like that one mysterious, innocent looking side character who turns out to be the secret manipulative master behind it all
THIS^^^
If that is true then Wooly has to be the CEO of Hameln paying for their crimes(turning Rebecca into Amanda and killing Sam).
Basically boingo, gideon, darla dimple, baby doll ect
@@lesliethomas9532 What are those things?
Wooly is Ralsei confirmed fr
I really am glad that Sam wasn’t the villain. That he was genuine in his love for Rebecca and his show.
Like if watching when matpat retired
Like if she/he needs English lesson
If Sam is Wooly, the implication that Rebecca(Amanda) is constantly bullying her own dad without knowing makes this so much more brutal.
I don't think Sam is Wooly, instead I think Sam is the Mysterious Stranger that you see in the secret ending. They only assumed Sam was killed because he had been missing for so long but they also report that "No Body was ever recovered"
@@zenos02 I thought the mysteeious stranger was sam
@@zenos02 i also thought the mysterious stranger was Sam, and Wooly is a employee from Hamlen trying to keep Amanda under their control, cuz Amanda is a host to a demon, she can lose control over her actions
@@ionutnertan yeah I agree with that, Wooly seems like Amanda's Handler
@@ionutnertan This would make sense because wooly was probably not in the live action because he is a sheep and unless sam's low budget went up or they used a puppet i don't think he could get a sheep in the show so wooly was most likely put in the show by hameln to keep her in check and stop her from asking for help
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
YES! You teased this during the fnaf talkback and now its here!!!
You say wooly is the evil
Woah
I’m sharing the same opinion on wooly! I also think he is trying to keep the show appropriate so that the parents will let their children keep watching the show, after all they want the kids😭
I DEFINITELY AGREE WITH THIS OHH MY GOD. wooly is definitely not what he seems. from the early tapes wooly is constantly trying to keep amanda in check acting as the more sensible and trustworthy character, i feel like wooly is actively trying to manipulate the perception the viewers have of him to maintain a trust of his word over amanda's. whenever amanda becomes self-aware, remembering her past, uncovering the truth, ETCCC wooly is constantly shutting her down, saying she is confused, and replacing her memories and thoughts with HIM as a distraction to whats really happening. only when wooly cannot interfere does amanda actually open up to the viewer. at some point in one of the tapes, wooly asks the viewer if they trust him, before amanda interrupts claiming wooly is sick in the head and giving him an (assumably) drugged drink, urging him to drink it by saying "it's all just pretend, isnt it wooly?" AND THIS SENTENCE SPECIFICALLY STOOD OUT TO ME because after amanda takes him into the operating room and knocks wooly unconscious, she shushes him and says it'll all be okay?? i feel like this is definitely learned behavior from some sort of abuse rebecca endured from hameln that wooly is desperately trying to make amanda forget. amanda definitely has rebecca's soul and is being shut out of her own memories and real self because wooly's only purpose is to conceal the truth from her for hameln to lure more children sacrifices with the show. BUT IDK THATS JUST MY INTERPRETATION
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
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
I love how game theory intros are always so personalised to the theory and so detailed and complicated
I do miss science blaster (the intro song), but the longer intros are great.
It kinda jumpscared me when he said he was in my closet

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.
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
I've got more LORE to share If you type Sam when you play the petting zoo tape the cabin stares directly at you so probably the cabin is Sam and the demon is torturing him for trying to ruin its plans.
That's probably why it has those stressful looking eyes.
“You don’t have to do this..” “Give me the lore, and I won’t!!” The summary of basically every single Game Theory.
Game: "Please don't do this." Matpat: "WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THE SOUND OF ME TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENS IF I DO THIS!"
Uh bbb
@Dawginhim shhhhh
yep
I like how in the official game, Amanda is just as much of a victim as Wooly is.
Can you elaborate this ? ^^
@@love.forsaken If you play the game, you can see Amanda in emotional distress and desperation to escape her situation when she isn’t possessed by the demon.
@@troin3925so like a two-souls-one-body situation? I think that’s an amazing idea, and I love any sort of media with that, unless it’s Fanon Undertale, cuz sans.
@@mrbigsta4221 What’s your problem with that?
@@troin3925 fanon sans is stupidly fleshed out in a bad way. Canon sans, the one we see in undertale is amazing, but fanon, the one from the fandom and the UT music videos, no thanks.
MATPAT should make his own horror game with lore that we have to solve
Agreed
The fact that MatPat was able to pick up on that Pied Piper refference almost instantly is just insane to me 💯✊
MatPat's editors never dissapoint with their intros, they diserve an oscar!
I love all the pop culture references in food theory
Pretty sure they got an award
OH MY GOD KILL THESE BOTS
I agree
True
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.
And it also isn't the usual Bofameth (had to censor this because fsr YT was complaining)
Myanswer: MyHouse.wad
With Bael, Paimon and Balam getting named dropped it leaves me with two questions 1 how do the other demon kings fit into the story and 2 who between Bael and Balam are speaking to Rebecca in the headphones
ikr i love it
from white person still frame jumpscare to an actual jumpscare cutscene the glow up is wild
3D matpat isnt real, he cant hurt you. 3D matpat: 0:44
Bro the intro scared me into actually checking my closet💀
This makes sense. Sam Colton never once mentions Wooly, suggesting Wooly only came into existence after HamelN “got rid” of Sam.
Yep
Or wooly is Sam is dead soul trying to warn us
Idk there’s just too many things wooly does that doesn’t align with him being Rebecca’s father. Asking children to come back to the neighborhood even though the only reason kids go to the neighborhood is by being taken, always forcing Amanda not to call for help, always forcing Amanda to forget her past none of this seems fatherly
E
Um sam does mention wooley. When on the talk show he mentions wooleys read a thon or something
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
EXACTLY I THINK SAM IS THE BARN IT WOULD MAKE SM SENSE because if they were going to trap Sam there, It would make more sense to trap him in something that CANNOT talk over something that can say or do whatever they want like Wooly
I definitely agree
There's an easteregg where if you type in a specific name, Wooly says something, i can't remember what, i think it was during the scene where you address the parcel
@@DaREALgremlinprescott true. why would they even let someone that threatens their plans become one of the mc, it wouldnt make any sense
The chicken's look at you too. In fact there is no clue of who Wooly is.
I already made a comment here but let's give it another go! Alright I'm going to share some opinions. Sam is probably either the barn or the masked dude when you get the secret tapes. Barn looks... Traumatized and looks at you when you type Sam. The dude at the end also looks a lot like Sam, and is probably trying to hide himself. If Wooly was Sam, I think Amanda would know and probably will feel safe, so no lonely kitten breakdown- She would also not have killed Wooly in the first place, break his leg and literally shut him up in the petting zoo tape. Anyways, that's all I had to say on this.
We'll miss you dearly matpat! I know that Tom will do an outstanding job as the new head of game theory.
you do know he is doing gtlive still right?
More evidence to this is that in the baking pie scene from tape 1, Amanda holds a knife and wooly tells her that they should have an adult or Amanda’s parents cut the apples with the knife. Amanda then responds with “I’m not sure where they are right now”.
Her tone of voice even changes when she said that.
You can type SAM when she asks the name of the chicken father. Instead of rooster and she will go "How do you know that?"
@@diablino21AND ALSO, the barn looks at you for a second. I think the barn is actually the father
@@maliketh9220nah i think the barn gets worried or scared of what you said, as if your playing with her and the barn is scaref of what she'll do if she gets mad or smth like that
@@maliketh9220Actually The Angry Barn Repersents Sam's Anger At Hameln Trapping him and Rebecca inside the tapes
I think Sam is the guy who bursts into the room at one of the endings. Woolie is a handler placed in the show to keep the demons on script. They need to keep children saying demon names along with Amanda during the response portions of the show.
I agree, the fact that the model has a very similar skintone to Sam is a very interesting detail for the developers to include, and I think it would be a unique plot twist for Sam to actually be alive, and now he's finally found someone who is able to help save his daughter.
There was also a credit scene that stated containment specialist, that could be wooly, as well as the books around the room having decodeable titles, one of them stated who is wooly? And I think another was something along the lines of can wooly be trusted
Cory said this in his game play. This theory makes much more sense.
Yeah I think so too!
That would explain why Amanda's always trying to talk about uncomfortable subjects, she wants to get the parents attention so they stop they're kids from watching the show, meanwhile Wooly is always trying to stop her so more kids watch
Me: *Sneezes* Me again: *looks back at screen* Matpat: I’m waiting for you in your closet
I hope this helps you with something: i do remember in my playthrough that i accident dropped what i assumed to be a strawberry and entered the puzzle, the strawberry got glitched (more like a tv static) and disappeared leaving me to assume that once you put in the tape you enters the realm of it Just a theory! A GAME THEORY
I think Matpat should make his own Analog horror game. Hes got the mind for it and can make it super lore heavy.
Y E S
@Huck yeaaa
Dude I’ve been wanting that for like 6-7 weeks now.
HE MUST!!!!!!
... but then who would solve the lore?
The more cursed the tapes get, the more real imagery for the backgrounds are shown, proving that Amanda/Rebecca is getting closer to reality. In the first version, when searching for treasure, the background starts to become realistic, and when the whole rotting episode is playing, the scenery becomes more realistic and there’s a point where Wooly and Amanda’s voices get weird. Also, in the first game, Woolie (remember, different name than now) says he’s allergic to apples. In the picnic scene and pie scene, apples are all around him and he doesn’t even flinch. Wooly also has ears in the later versions, but in the early versions, he does not. Amanda probably killed him and then went to the petting zoo and got a new sheep as Wooly starts to get dehumanized when going there.
That would make sense as I was questioning that too as I remember Wookiee saying he is allergic to apples in the first game. This could also be why during the farm tape going to the sheep pen it’s fully of dead sheep bodies and Woolie turns back to a sheep on four legs and not talking
264 likes but no reply? I can change that. Oh 265 likes i mean
Or Wooly is someone from forcing her to be herself
there's a secret tape in the full version of the game which includes the moment where he says hes allergic to apples. My theory is that the episodes go differently depending on what Amanda decides to change. She wants to make the apple pie so as she gains more control she changes what wooly says
@@aurawolf8761 "Wookiee" lol

The idea of a MatPat hiding in your closet is the funniest thing to me. Just imagine you go into your closet to get a shirt and MatPat is just standing there and goes "HELLO AND WELCOME TO ANOTHER GAME THE-" and you shut the door before he can finish.
Almost as terrifying as when Shia LeBeouff had a breakdown and moved into the woods in real life.
I want to see an intro with this exact scenario 😆
@@DarkXWolf1998 A gaaame theory
I need matpat to make this into a real thing 😂😂
I mean he is technically in a closet because he records in, and back then he did make jokes about him recording in a closet soooooo him joking about being in your č/øßę? Is not really surprising
I think I speak for everyone who loves his game: 1) We need a few more tapes and puzzles for added lore depth within the game 2) This “show” needs to have its own KZhead channel with added episodes for full “horror” and breaking the 4th wall effect 3) THIS NEEDS TO BE A FULL CONSOLE GAME
I just love the intro! MatPat: I'm hiding in your closet. Sweet dreamz. *evil laugh*
That orange tape is genuinely such a well crafted moment of horror. It gives me serious goosebumps. Rather than something new and horrifying appearing to scare you, the fear comes from something familiar and important disappearing. Absolutely genius
When Amanda is screaming "won't you help the lonely kitten?!" in the worst ending, watch Wooly's model as everything starts distorting. First, he looks terrified as Amanda starts levitating, and then he changes into a model of a man wearing a green shirt before the static takes over the screen.

Lol😂 True.

I was literally just thinking that.
Not "LOOOOOOORE" but maybe this would suffice? kzhead.info/sun/bK2untt7oZlphXk/bejne.html
I feel like there's one bit of symbolism in the game that can't be ignored. When Amanda turns into the monster, those white dots on her face aren't eyes. They're WOOL. So someone is "pulling the wool over her eyes", keeping her from knowing the truth. Surely that isn't just a coincidence.
They ARE actually eyes, look closely
Are they really wool? If you look closer on the monster form it's more like imbedded in. well it could be still symbolized as pulling the wool over her eyes
The point is it LOOKS like wool it doesn’t need to BE wooly for it to symbolize it
@@lesliethomas9532 i agree, It doesn't need to be wool to symbolize it

You need a comma there bud, almost had a stroke reading this

@@angrymicrowave 🤓
5:43 f**k you Matt for saying that
@Josepoopbut 📺 Mint chocolate is literally the worst flavour
Wooly really feels like he’s trying to help Amanda despite not being mentally mature either. It feels like he escaped becoming a monster. He tried to save Amanda
Yeah like he was trying to make her feel better when he did the whole “psst, it’s my birthday today!” thing and helped her feel better It reminds me of a way a kid would help another kid, so your idea isn’t a stretch
I commented a theory I had about Wooly being Sam Colton, which makes sense to me based off of movies and literature about stuff surrounding demonic natured things
What if the demon is woolly lol, ngl those eyes look pretty sus, and isn’t woolly never around when the demon ACTUALLY appears?
@@NobodyIsBackyet he always warns us when the demon is about to come. Him being evil makes 0 sense lol
fun fact the alchemical symbols Matt talks about in 3:32 are also featured in a game called Yugioh Forbidden memories, and are used to represent planets and their alignments to the monsters you use

@@dylanhodgson7605 my dad made a theory on my fav show that made it wayyy darker lol im bored
@@ilikewomenfrfr Damn 17.7 now lol
I don't think wooly is Amanda's dad, she clearly hates him. Amanda keeps talking about unpleasant subjects most likely to get parents attention and make kids stop watching the show, Wooly on the other hand is trying to stop her and even says "nothing is rotten" like he's trying to gaslight her. Not to mention her monster form with wool covering the eyes- its literally "pulling the wool over her eyes" I think he's ment to be the "wolf in sheep's clothing" pretending everything is fine so they can lure in more children
While I do agree that Wooly isn't Sam Colton, I could see the argument for it. A child gets angry at their father for his mistake, believing that it is the father who is hurting them. Thus, the animosity towards Wooly. Rebecca thinks her dad betrayed her, so she takes out all her anger on him. Personally, I think Wooly is meant to be the Containment Specialist or a lesser daemon put in charge.
Yoooo, I hadn't thought about "wolf in sheep's clothing". Genius!
I was just about to point that out! Also, id say "Baa Lamb" kinda hints for Wooly's true identity as well.
😦
Yeah I actually agree that wooly isn't sam, because he acts like a brother to her. (Yes I know, Amanda/ Rebecca doesn't have a brother) tbh it's still not clear what's wooly's identity. But let me say something about the demon eyes that looks like wool. I don't think the eyes are covered in wool, because when she has a breakdown about Riley not helping the kitten (which represents Rebecca), she gets closer to the screen when we see Amanda has the eyes, and you can see there are slightly white pupils. Now I wanna talk about th ending where you agree to help the lonely kitten, what I think when we agree to help her. She starts smiling very creepily, which actually leads to the meat ending. I believe that Hamlin production was in control of Amanda at that moment, and I believe the demon who trapped Amanda and the other souls in the show, lured Riley and turned them into meat, just like how mat mentioned that the whole game is based of the piped piper story. Now that's just my opinion, what do you think ?
The bit about the kids going into a trance at the show actually reminds me to the creepy pasta Candle cove
I’m gonna miss finding these theories on random games I become fixated on 😢
Remember, the show isn’t going anywhere, we’re just changing hosts, Matt will still be writing some scripts and helping out ❤
Something to add as a metaphysics and demonolgy researcher: In many summoning rituals you have to invoke the name of the entity THREE TIMES just as Rebecca does in the recording session at 9:45

I think Wooly is actually someone from Hamlen, trying to make sure Rebecca doesn’t do anything or think anything like “I feel myself rotting”, thats why he says “Nothing is rotten here” afterwards. He also looked very disappointed when Amanda mails the package to Kate, and if Amanda was trying to ask or give help to Kate in that moment, it would make sense for Wooly to be from Hamlen.
There is one last tape GT didn't mention here, and that's the one of a Wooly solo spin-off program where it is eleven uninterrupted minutes of Wooly sitting mostly silent and idle. Whoever or whatever "Wooly" is, he does not have the ability--or maybe the desire--to perform on his own. This could lend credence to either your hypothesis or even GT's; if Wooly is Sam, then Sam is sitting silently because he refuses to dance for Hameln, but if Wooly is a Hameln employee, then the poor schmuck has no clue what to do on his own because he only knows how to placate Amanda/Rebecca.
He seems mostly afraid of Amanda, like he wants to prevent things but also he's won't dare step too far out of line while she's around. His character is a mystery to me

I believe this Pied Piper connection is what is going to really crack this game's lore open. It's heavily implying that the Amanda tapes are luring/hypnotizing kids to somehow off themselves, like the pied piper and the kids in the story. The new question is figuring out what role Rebecca plays in all this. Is the controlling it? Or is she a victim of this demon too?

Hey dude you can get banned for spam so stop
I think Amanda is the flute and Hamlin is the Pied Piper

I haven’t seen this theory yet but I always got the feeling that Woolley was a child like he doesn’t know how to keep Amanda calm maybe he was the first kid they used to make sure it worked

"I'm Waiting For You In Your Closet. " "Sweet Dreams. " Thanks Matpat now i cant Sleep.
0:45 Jokes on you, I sleep in a living room.
I think wooly is an agent from hameln. There were other neighbors in the tapes in front of the store that amanda killed which are probably agents too. When amanda was trying to make wooly drink a toxin, she said "it's all just pretend isnt it wooly". And when they were at the barn the reason wooly was turning back into a normal sheep was because of the thunderstorm disrupting the signal between the agent and wooly's character
I freaking love this theory!!
but if it’s an agent from hameln, an evil company that’s doing all this demonic stuff, why would wooly be trying to stop all the bad things that amanda is doing, when the company is the one trying to make that happen?
i'm surprised mat didn't talk about the book with the encoded message in the bookshelf. Using the symbols that appeared in the demo, you can decode the book and it says "who is wooly?". I honestly don't think Sam is wooly, although it makes sense. It just feels like the game has wooly as one of the bigger mysteries yet to be solved and I don't see why Amanda would be so hostile towards Wooly, it feels like Gregory's hatred towards the glam animatronics. It does explain why Wooly is so patient with her though.
is there a video on KZhead that goes through the real ending?
Personally I think apply is the one keeping Amanda trapped in their. He’s employed by heimlin as a seemingly innocent sheep to make sure Amanda doesn’t escape. I also think his role as a sheep falls in line with the idea of a “wolf in sheep’s clothing”
*wooly not apply
The intro had me jumping up and down while looking in my closet,under the bed,behind all the chairs,and everywhere else
Lore: you are the silly fox. You didn’t know that you were being lured into a trap.
I've also heard a theory that the Amanda monster's eyes are actually a mask made of wool. It could either be Amanda getting the proverbial wool over her eyes, or maybe it's Wooly trying to inhibit the monster and/or Hamlin.
In the "Don't help the kitten" ending, we see that happen. The entire background is gone except the Woolie model, though only limbs and a head, because his wool is infecting Amanda so she can attack.

@Nicolas he probably did it..,l
My favorite part about that "I'm waiting for you in your closet" line isn't the line itself, but rather how it applies to me. I find it particularly funny because if anybody WAS waiting in my closet, I'd be able to tell, because: 1. My bed is literally right in front of my closet. I moved it there so that I'd have more pacing space in my room. 2. I still wanted to be able to access my clothes, so I took off the door to my closet, so that I wouldn't have to pull my bed out just to get dressed only to need to move it back again. 3. With the previous 2 points in mind, it would be absurdly obvious if somebody was hiding in my closet because I'd notice something was amiss *immediately* The line still gave me chills tho lol, thanks mostly in part to the stark suddenness of it. Awesome job!
Whenever there is a mysterious character in any game, Matpat sees one of three things - a dead child - a murderer/sociopath - your father
This game is honestly amazing, especially considering it started as a small project
Yep, that's true! :D
Like baldis basics
I never knew we hunted from our bedrooms! You really taught well, Matpat!!
nice comment, would suck if there were bots under this comment

I dont think he was trying to hunt animals if u know what I mean 🧒
0:44 Haha!! Jokes on you! I don't have a closet!!!
The intro made me lock up my closet with chains🤧
I feel like Wooly is part of Hamelin, and is there to watch over Amanda/Rebecca to make sure the program is going as it’s supposed to, and act as her “friend”. I feel like the reason Rebecca feels so alone is because Sam is gone, and it doesn’t make sense why Rebecca would be so hostile towards her dad who she seems to miss (the rooster scene from the farm). I think the guy in the red jacket in the final true ending might be Sam
I dont think wooly is the father too!, as you can see at the end of the game (when you find all the tapes) u are met with a unknown figure with a red coat we dont know who this guy might be but this all points out to being someone that really knows about all this stuff from afar someone that has made research about all of this and really knows about the behind scenes and wants to stop it its the father, maybe instead of killing the father off they missed, and sam managed to escape, he couldnt appear in broadlight again for so long thanks for the company (hamlen) looking out for him and try to kill him off again,so he only appears when its rlly needed (when riley finds all the truth and the tapes) thats when he needed to intervene and help riley to find his daughter.
Idk about the guy in the red jacket but I definitely think it's weird that Rebecca would be so aggressive with her dad
There is a chance she or Wooly don’t fully remember everything or that Rebecca is unaware of Wooly’s true identity; while Wooly is either unable or too ashamed to reveal who he is.
@@theredsir869 the problem with that is, wooly isn't acting like amanda would and instead trying to keep amanda at bay with specific things, even when you mention the fathers name or try and break the game, wooly always seems to be shocked, or shaking hes head at the viewer. if it was the father, he would also be having second thoughts with stuff/questioning just like amanda.
there was this one tape with wooly in the room, in that secret tape, he was smiliing, chilling, not like he wants to break out, happy, if he was the father, he would be stressed/not patient or any other emotion apart from happy and not leaning on hes chair in the tape.
Something mat didn’t mention is that Hameln’s motto is follow us to fun, further hinting at the pied piper reference
He did in the clip , he said Follow us to funn,, oh so it's like a pied piper situation.
wow i did not notice that!
That intro kinda spooked me, cuz first, my closet was open, and the fact that it’s right in my face is spookier, help.
Bro I click on this video and ad comes up and then tells me “your watching a game theory video right now” it spooked me out so much that it took me a month just to watch this again
I think Wooly is someone from Hamelin, like a researcher or handler. Like you said, Wooly is constantly trying to keep Amanda on track, but in one of the secret tapes, Wooly sits in an interrogation room, silent and calm. For an entire 10 minutes. Until he gets an idea at the end, but quickly changes his mind, as if he knew his idea wouldn't work. To me, this feels like one of two things. 1. A researcher waiting for their test subject to enter so they can begin the experiment. 2. Someone from Hamelin Studio who is trying to think of an episode's script, but can't without Amanda's creative input.
Wait, wdym "Wooly sitting in an interrogation room for 10 minutes?" Which secret tape was it, I haven't seen it

I actually disagree that Sam Colton is Wooly because Wooly why would Amanda hate her own father and go so far to try and kill him? Also he seems to try to want everything to be pretend in the tape where Amanda killed Wooly. Wooly also wanted to distract her and pretend it’s his birthday because he knows she’s remembering. I think that Wooly is a crew member that tries to make Amanda forget her past life and that gives a reason of why she hates him.
Maybe the company lost control of the demon and don't want Amanda to turn into it, so they have Wooly there to calm her down.
I dont think wooly is the father too, as you can see at the end of the game (when you find all the tapes) u are met with a unknown figure with a red coat we dont know who this guy might be but this all points out to being someone that really knows about all this stuff from afar someone that has made research about all of this and really knows about the behind scenes and wants to stop it its the father, maybe instead of killing the father off they missed, and sam managed to escape, he couldnt appear in broadlight again for so long thanks for the company (hamlen) looking out for him and try to kill him off again,so he only appears when its rlly needed (when riley finds all the truth and the tapes) thats when he needed to intervene and help riley to find his daughter.
Personally, I think wooly is one of the first children Amanda took into her show, and he simply just want things to have some....normality, of sorts.
@@pendantalt i think so too!
I think it might be Sam if his end goal isn't to save Amanda. Amanda WANT to be saved and returned to her body and Wooly seemingly doesn't want that as his end goal. Why? Because Hamelin want more childrens to be lured. And they are using Amanda's desire to be freed, her plea for help as a bait for other childrens to follow her lead. Wooly goal here (Or Sam) is to keep Amanda happy, mentally stable (or maybe keep her soul intact and uncorrupted) and distracted from sending other childs to their doom. Wooly... want to prevent what happened to his daughter to other childrens! Sam probably wish to save Amanda but now that his soul in the same place as his daughter, his options for that are quite limited. But Amanda want this torment to end so he is bound to get hated by Amanda if he let her thoughts wonder and then he wont be able to protect her from the demons or the corporation owing the show.
5:19 or they're marched into a river to drown, depending on how German your version is
when i saw paimon i literally screamed "PAIMON????"
I personally thought of it more as woolly being an employee of hameln trying to keep her calm/silence her, because in the original non-cursed delivery type tape, the name on the card is “Kate”. I think this means that Kate is more important than you thought, and that hameln is trying to get Rebecca to forget about her.
I like this theory.
