Amanda the Adventurer: a children’s show that talks back

Amanda the Adventurer starts as a joke about a cheap children’s programme and slowly turns into something else. You play Riley Park, who has inherited Aunt Kate’s house and finds a television, a VCR and a stack of tapes in the attic. On the tapes, Amanda and her sheep friend Wooly do the kind of lessons a local kids’ show would: baking an apple pie, running errands around the neighbourhood, taking Wooly to the hospital after an accident, a picnic, a trip to a petting zoo and a lesson about sharing. Amanda keeps asking the viewer questions and waits for an answer. A wrong one gets a short retry line, and Wooly grows more nervous with every tape. What you do also matters: some answers, and the puzzles you solve in the attic between tapes, unlock alternate versions of later episodes, so two runs do not always show the same tapes.

The browser version on this page is a Unity WebGL build of the original, running in the frame from our game host. It is a large download, so give it time on the first load, and it needs a reasonably recent browser. A laptop or a Chromebook with a keyboard is the right way to play, because some answers have to be typed. Turn subtitles on in the options if you are playing without sound.

Getting through the tapes

  1. Listen to the retry lines: When an answer is wrong, Amanda says so (“Nope, try again!”, “We can’t use that.”) and asks again, so the tape tells you when you are off track.
  2. Solve the attic puzzles: Each episode is tied to a puzzle in the attic, built from things like a pie tin and a recipe card, a piano, a colouring book, a pocket watch and a safe. Solving them is what opens up the alternate tapes.
  3. Watch Wooly: The sheep is the one who is scared. When he warns you (“You don’t have to answer that”), pay attention to what Amanda just asked.

Key Features

  • Found-footage horror: A cheap kids’ show recreated in loving detail, then bent out of shape one tape at a time.
  • Answer back: Some of Amanda’s questions accept typed text, others want you to pick something on screen, and some answers are not the ones she is expecting.
  • Alternate tapes: Besides the six episodes there are alternate versions of Episodes 2, 3 and 4, three Mixtapes and six Secret Tapes to find, and more than one ending.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Amanda the Adventurer unblocked at school?▾

Amanda the Adventurer runs in an ordinary browser tab from amandatheadventurer.org, with nothing to download or install, so it plays on most school Chromebooks and work computers. If a network filter blocks the site, only that network's administrator can change it.

What is Amanda the Adventurer?▾

A short horror puzzle game by MANGLEDmaw Games. You watch VHS tapes of a children's show in an attic and answer the host's questions, some by typing and some by picking something on screen. A few answers, and the attic puzzles you solve between tapes, lead to alternate versions of later tapes.

Is it free to play here?▾

Yes. The browser port is embedded on this page and plays at no cost with no download or account.

What are the controls?▾

Mouse to look and click, keyboard to type answers when Amanda asks a question, Escape for the pause menu.

Is it scary?▾

It is unsettling rather than full of jump scares — the horror comes from the tone of the show changing. It is suited to teens and up.

Does it work on a Chromebook or phone?▾

It needs WebGL and a keyboard for typing, so a laptop or Chromebook is right. Phones can load it but typing answers is awkward.
