| 0:00.0 | What is the true story of Reanimal? |
| 0:03.0 | Since its release, fans have been speculating about what the true law of this cryptic |
| 0:06.6 | game actually is. |
| 0:08.0 | But by putting all the clues together from the animals to the endings, and by diving into |
| 0:12.1 | all of the symbolism, the dark truth is revealed. |
| 0:17.4 | Hello internet! |
| 0:18.5 | Welcome to Game Theory, the show that's flocked to this new game as soon as it found out it existed. |
| 0:23.6 | Reanimal. Why? Because this game is made by the same studio behind the first two Little Nightmares games. Tarsia. |
| 0:29.6 | And when this game released a few weeks ago, people were not disappointed by this thriller co-op game. |
| 0:34.6 | It's essentially the spiritual successor everyone wanted, |
| 0:37.8 | rather than what Little Nightmares 3 ended up being. But just like the Little Nightmares games, |
| 0:41.9 | there is danger, suspense, and of course, law. With barely any lines of dialogue and a lot of |

| 1:08.8 | the dark secret these children are hiding. So put on your creepy |
| 1:12.7 | collectible masks theorists as we travel through the hellish nightmare of Rianimal. The game starts out |
| 1:18.1 | looking up from a well with four silhouettes looking in. As the fifth appears, the screen turns red and |
| 1:23.5 | it cuts to one of our playable characters in a boat. He's wearing a bag on his head with a rope tied around his neck. As he moves through the vast space of the water, the boy stops and finds a body in the water. He pulls the body in, and as she comes to, she attacks the boy, trying to strangle him. They break up the fight and talk. I thought you did. Where are the others? No, no. Sounds like we have our objective for the game. And so, we do just that. Slowly finding our friends hood, bandage, and bucket. Bet you could guess where they got those names from. I mean, our main characters are literally called the boy and the girl, so maybe those in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. As we go about finding them, we explore more and more of this |
