GOOD MORNING, T LADIES. MY NAME IS JACK THE GUY AND welcome to the Tall Man tapes. Listen to it. Let the mood settle you. Hear the music as it gets through your veins. It sounded like John Carpenters's The Thing soundtrack for a second. You're in a lookout tower. You all know I love a lookout tower. In anything horror, a lookout tower makes everything better. It kind of reminded me of Iron Bark Lookout, the Fierce to Fathom game. one of the best Fears of Fathom games if and you ask me. And I'm not saying that cuz that's the one I'm in. I actually genuinely really liked it and I'm excited for the new one. The Steam page for this had UFOs on it. So, I'm hoping the tall man tapes the aliens

to beat the tall man. I hope that's what it means. But let's start a new game and see what it's all about. Yo, mind if I chew on my fingers a little bit? Can't help a bad habit. Oh, I'm lying down in the back of a car. This took place 26 years ago. Isn't that crazy to think that 2000 is 26 years ago? I knew people who were born after this. That terrifies me. Brandino Games. The tall man tapes. Oh yeah, I've used this font before.

Definitely for a thumbnail in my past in a previous life. I started my YouTube channel way the [__] after this. Isn't it scares me? What are we doing? Can I look around? No. Look at the pretty trees. I know these tapes aren't about me cuz I'm not a tall man. I'm standing at full height in the back of this car. I'm about 4 in tall. Am I being kidnapped? Maybe I'm the alien. Wouldn't that be cool? Tape zero, the station. Oo. Whoa.

Hell yeah. Oh my god. This reminds me of some like really early YouTube games. Oh, it's so gritty. You know, like Slender: The Arrival type of era. Ooh, yeah. Look, check out the depth of field. OOH, GO CROSSEY LOOKING AT THIS POST. [__] YEAH. SEAN'S AUTO. OH, you had me at hello. This is my place. This is cool. Oh, big American flag, though. Might as well be a red flag, if you know what I mean. To me, it's a red flag. Okay. Am I a cop? Is this a body cam? I keep getting like K. WD40. Got to have it. Does anybody else really like the smell of WD40?

Is that weird? Like, it's not LIKE I WANT TO SPREAD it on toast or anything, but you know, you smell WD40, you're like, m, there's something about it. Maybe it's like dad working in the garage kind of smell. Ooh, give me that. Yeah. Okay. Hello. No one's working here. Do I work here now? Go away. What? You said leave me alone. Oh, he's pooping. Any poopers? Getting deafened by whatever's going on. Have you heard them trumpets?

Sir, do you need medical assistance? Oh, there's something about the graininess of it that I love. It gets the spook going, you know, makes you feel like you're in it, like you can chew on it. I love when games have like texture. And I'm not talking about textures, which these are terrible. Probably for copyright reasons, but still. Oh, yeah. Get yourself some shades. Please keep these items updated. Bread, fish, fruits, canned food. No, no, no. Not today. This isn't a horror game where I am filling shelves anymore. I'm past that. I'm over that. I've graduated. Hell Mart is no more. Hot delicious food menu. Where? Where's your

hot delicious food? I'm so sorry. I'm just leaving all your doors open. That's not very cool of me. And like Leon Skenedy when he's coming into the gas station at the star and then Claire's there and he goes, "Get down. which it doesn't happen like that in the original, but the remake it does. What we got here? Item name. Hey. White water. Body water. Bulbasaur. Okay. I know you're not buying Pokemon in this place. OH, THANK YOU SO MUCH. OH, THANK. What's the gas prices like? H I have no idea if that's good or bad.

Maybe this is the sign that the year 2000. This gas station prices. Look, I don't drive. I don't know how much you have to pay FOR ANYTHING. WHY DID I GET OUT? I didn't do anything. I didn't buy anything. I didn't refill anything. Oh, maybe my body cam WAS SITTING ON THE BACK in the car. I'm doing it again. Tape one. The tower. Ah, SOMEONE HAS BLEACHED MY RETINAS. AH, my eyes have been scorched. That's a cute little Jeep.

See, in Ireland, where I grew up, if you didn't know, I'm Irish, by the way, we called every car that looks like this a Jeep. Like it didn't have to be an actual Jeep brand. It just needed to look like this. Also, is it just me or is this car [__] tiny? Looks cute though. I want to drive that around if I had a license. Okay. Why am I filming this? This is a tape we're looking at. Holy contrast. MY EYES CAN'T handle it. I can't discern anything. Oh, neither got my camera. It's freaking out. LOOK AT THAT CHROMATIC ABERRATION.

Holy god. Mountain River, Forest Lake, lookout tower. I'm looking for the lookout tower. So, obviously, I'm not going to go that way. I'm going to go this way. Hold on. Invisible wall. It won't let me. Oh, when I sprint, the FOV gets bigger. The camera knows that I'm in high speeded pursuit. Turns out I'm not going faster at all. You ever see those games like Dragon Age Inquisition where they just like changed how the screen looked and added some speed lines and everyone thought you were going faster, but in reality the horse never went faster in that game.

I love [__] like that. It's so fun. Hold on. I got a bad tape in this thing. Oh yeah, this is a good place to do some murdering for sure. I went on a horse ride uh end of last year, December, um through LA or like super north LA. I can't remember the place we were in. Um and it was really cool. I was sitting on a horse and I was kind of scared cuz I'm kind of scared of horses. When I was 7 years old, I went to a summer camp and I was on the horse and he kind of like booked and moved really fast and they joked that he was like a former raceh horse and he was going to take off and it scared the crap out of me.

Whoa, horsey, was that you? If I move, everything gets a little easier to look at, but then I stop and the bleach comes back. But when I was on the horse this time, I was fine. It was a little scary at first, but we had a really good instructor and she told us what to do. And then like 20 minutes into it, I was like, "Pretent you're Arthur Morgan from Red Dead." And I was onehanding it with the rains and I saddled and I was sitting back and I was just all I needed was some chewing tobaci or a [__] piece of straw and a hat, maybe a gun, maybe a license to kill. Felt really cool though. It was really peaceful cuz everyone has to say in single file, so you can't really talk a whole lot TO EACH OTHER. HOLD ON. I'M TELLING A STORY.

No more peaceful than this. All right, back in the game. No one wants to hear about your personal life, Sean. Play the [__] game. Okay. Oh, that's a nice rock. I like that boulder. That is a nice boulder. I keep hearing things. Are there aliens watching me already? Man, there is something about this when you see it in motion that it does kind of look real, doesn't it? Like it's obviously very gamey looking, but there's something about it that you can kind of see. Okay, I need to get out

of this environment because the way it's like constantly shifting. Oh, this is far away. Don't I have to meet like a ranger? Get set up for the day. Oh, really quiet. Oh, it's back. It's making noise again. It's cuz I stopped, bro. Where's me found it. No need to look anymore, doggy. Whoa. Holy [__] god. Why does it look like that? I know it's supposed to be a VHS tape, but as someone who grew up with those, they look a little better than this.

Actually, I don't want to do this. I can't see anything. That's a [__] nice looking tower, though. That's going to be my tower. Love you, baby girl. Here we go. Oh, I'm going to look it so much. I'm going to look out across the land and I'm just going to jerk it wildly. Just straight out into the ethos. Let everyone know that I'm here. I should go back and play Firewatch again. I've been thinking about it. Oh, Jibus was here. I Wow. Okay. Pretty cool, I got to say. But yeah, I've been thinking about doing like all of Firewatch in one video. I think that would be cool to do again.

It's been a while since I played it. Taff Power. I love me some Taff Power. wouldn't have any other type of power. President Taff Okay, it's acting like I'm still really close to something. Oh yeah, that sun has gone nuclear. Where's the door? This is Holy God. Did a light go out? What happened? Okay. Stay away from rock/monument. Creepy to do. Find campers and make them clean up. Make them pay. Uh, radio HQ about strange man. Oh god, I thought my computer crashed. Jesus, that scared me. Don't do that. My computer has a tendency to do that lately. Tape to the campsite.

Okay, moving on down. Huh? I hope I get out of this and it's not an Aaron Rollson kind of situation where I have to cut my own arm off cuz I won't be able to do it. I don't know how he did that. I think about that a lot in those scenarios. I'm like I mean I'm sure he probably didn't think he could do it either and then when you're in the scenario you can. But holy god what a herculan effort to survive. Okay, those are nuclear launch maps. I've seen those before. Hello. What a god. Ah. Whoa. Yeah. Tiny man in a tree and a got dark.

Oh, good to go. Oh, Jesus. Okay, so suddenly got way scarier. Look at that. that thumbnail or what? I know how to [__] frame it up. They are from God. Oh, they come from I'm sure they do, but you left your Bowie knife behind. It's fine now. I'm excited to see some aliens. I might have spoke too soon. Okay, maybe I'm actually kind of scared. It's okay to admit it. Ghost train. Ghost guitar. Who's following me? Oh, now I'm paranoid.

I don't like it. I don't like any of this. What should I do? Can I go up here? Tape over. Okay. Well, I don't like the sounds of ghost trains in the middle of the forest. It's like Minecraft when you go to a cave. Tape three. The storm. These tapes are tiny. Is that me and the misses? Beautiful. Oh, I'm going to write my memoirs. Got lots of time to think. Also, lots of time to be scared. Reminder, feed the dog. Okay, what else does it say? Investigate lights. They hang out over by the lake. Doggy, I want to pet him. Remember, shut window shutters and fill generator when storm.

Okay, I'm going to have to fill generator cuz when storm happening. This is my abode. This is it. This is everything I own right now. This is all me. Everything. I need [__] glasses or something. Feel like I'm in the middle of developing glaucoma. Okay. Should I do anything? It's lighting up like I'm supposed to. But Oh. Oh, I can open things. It's over for everybody now. Now that I've learned to open, I'm never going to shut up about it. Okay, so what was in these? Why can't I open these?

Did no work on those? Ooh, cool camera. What is that? Uh, nothing. Okay, YOU GOT TO STOP DOING THAT. You know, if you want to be covert, stop announcing yourself so wildly. Best of the show, go for it. Uh-oh. Can I turn off my lights? I want to see outside. Okay, God provided. Thank you. Can I see anything in this? Oh god. Okay, the lights are out and now I instantly regret it. Okay, this [__] sucks. This is the worst. What's making that sound? What should I do?

Oh god. Oh, and the lights off. You really can't see anything except the lightning. Should I be doing something except panicking? Yeah, do that. Okay, I'm not allowed. Oh, it's raining inside the radio. Explore America. Maybe that's what the UFOs are doing. They're going to know I'm here. If the lights on, they're going to know I'm in here. But if the lights off, I'm not even going to know I'm in here. Okay. So far, I haven't had to do much. Things just progress on their own. So, oh, the

generator. Generator windstorm. GENERATOR WIND STORM. OH GOD, IT'S PLUS THREE OUT. Oh my god. Oh, that's cool. DO IT AGAIN. DO IT That's moody as [__] Hell yeah. Oh god, I heard something. I heard something clicking at me. Jas, help. Okay. Oh Jesus. Okay. I'm actually scared. [__] this. [__] this. [__] this. No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Okay, I'm back. [__] I need some wipers FOR MY EYES. WHAT? AGAIN?

NO, I don't like this. Okay, these guys are just messing with me now. Where are they? Are they here? I can't see anyone. I can't do anything. Oh, this sucks. Oh, this very sucks. Okay, we're good. Everything's fine. THAT WAS COOL. I'M [__] OUT OF HERE, DUDE. This game got some atmosphere tape over. Thank god that was really cool looking with the lady in the background. So moody and atmospheric. Tape for the monument. Uhoh. I don't like where this is going. Why am I out here? Why am I looking for a monument? What the [__] am I doing?

Find the monument. Says who and why. It's like 2001 of Space Odyssey. I love a monument. a monolith, if you will. Okay, I got to be fast. These aliens are looking at me. Is that the monument? Should I go towards the lights? That seems like a really bad idea, I'm sorry. What? What's going on over here? Oh, it's a church. Oh, it's a cult. If you can't beat them, join him. Whoa, that is a monument. I thought it was going TO BE LIKE A SL LIKE 2,000 MI SPACE. You're just a slab. Holy [__] You guys had a whole church of personality going on over here.

What's this? Jesus. What is this? Oh god. Tape over. So clearly people are aware of what's going on out here. The lights in the sky. Oh yeah. Look, I when I was a teenager and I got the internet for the first time, I totally fell for all those videos. Watching like a triangle of lights going across the sky and people talking about it. And you [__] leave me alone. What? What should I do? What

Oh, my Pop-Tarts are done. Pop-Tarts in a microwave. What are you, psychopath? Oh, I'm not allowed to do that for some reason. Oh. Are they really big and far away or just really tiny? If I saw this in real life, I would lose my [__] It's like the Phoenix lights. Any of you ever watched that one? That was also a cool one. It's spelling something out. It says, "You a bitch." Rude. There's some activity going on, folks. I got it in tape, though. I'm probably going to die, but this is going to live on beyond me. I've got definitive proof.

The dog. Is it daytime? Oh, what? Leave me alone. I got to go feed a dog. This is the best part of my day. If you hurt the dog, I'm coming for you. I don't know what kind of genitals a alien will have, if any, but I'm squeezing them. Oh. What happened? Where's that coming from? Or is it just like fabric on the ground? Why is it so glowy? I hate this job. I hate this There's no place like home. There's no place. Oh, tape over. Thank god. Oh god.

Jesus. This is actually getting under my skin. Like I love the idea of aliens. Lost. I love that show. I love the idea of aliens. And part of me is like I would love to see aliens at some point. And I do believe there's something out there. Maybe not little green men or gray aliens or beings with high intellect, but like there's got to be like some sort of bacteria on a planet somewhere that's living like any sort of organism out there. There's got to be something. You can't be the only ones. Thomas, the tank engines coming for me. It's Choo Charles all over again. They're throwing an alien rock concert over here.

Do it again. Flashbang by some aliens. That was cool. It's like um Close Encounters. That's a great film if you haven't seen it. is that supposed to happen? The burning bush. Isn't that a biblical thing? Not an alien thing. Holy God. Maybe literally. Maybe aliens are God. Could tape be over now, please? I would like tape to be over. Thank you. Uh-oh. Tape eight. The tall man. It's going down. Y'all return to your car. Best idea we've had.

Easily the best idea we've had this entire game. Get in the car, go home, cry about it. Never have to worry again. Nature's scary. Why live in nature when you can live in a bustling city full of noise out here? It's scary. Oh, I'm going to get stopped. I'm going to see a tall man. I don't like tall men. Tall man. It's a tall man. There's a tall man up there. I DON'T LIKE TALL MEN. NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. YOU WON'T GET me today, tall man. I am [__] leaving. That's so scary. Why was he up there? And why did he have a hero light? Why was your backlit?

Oh god, I feel like I'm actually out of breath looking at you. Please don't kill me, tall, man. [__] off. I want to live. I want to Okay, that's just a bear. That's fine. I have bear spray on me. I can handle that. Bear is totally fine. Aliens, tall men, that's no bueno. If I hear footsteps coming towards me, I'm going to I might actually piss or [__] I'm not sure which fluids are going to come out of me. Okay, I actually have to go the entire way back. Oh, hold on. I might die up here instead. Sure.

Sure. Why not? Yeah. Why not just destroy my car? Like my Yeah, [__] that car specifically. I have heard THE TRUMPETS OF GOD. I AM A BELIEVER. I'LL SAY ANYTHING TO NOT GET KILLED. OH, MY tiny jeep. It was so small AND DIDN'T HURT ANYBODY. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT? Is something supposed to happen? Don't do this to me. Oh no. Jesus. Oh. Oh, there's life in her yet. Tape nine. Icarus. Oh, it's brighter now. Is the moon is out. Okay, I'm going to need some air conditioning for this.

I can't handle Icorus now. Have you seen the moon? Where am I going? Icarus flew too close to the sun. There's none of that out right now. Am I going the right way? Well, I haven't hit an invisible wall yet, so this has to be the right way. Follow the beach. I'm coming, baby. I'm coming. I'M COMING BACK TO YOU NOW. Oh yeah, look at her standing as a beautiful monument. Beautiful justice erect where she stays. Oh, bollocks. No, don't destroy my Don't destroy that. Sorry, Jibus. Uh-oh. Oh, not only are there aliens, they're Satanists as well.

The worst kinds of aliens. Where am I? Oh my god. RETURN TO THE TOWER. HIDE. What does he do? Oh [__] Oh [__] Oh [__] Close the shutters or something. They can't see me. I'm fine. I might not be fine. No. My tower. Why would you do that? My beautiful tower. She was so young. I'm going to make someone pay for this. Where should I go?

I don't think it matters. I think they're going to find me no matter where I go. Should I swim? Oh, my tower's burning in the distance. I'm out. Oh, I was still crouched. I didn't do anything to you guys. I just WANTED TO DO MY JOB. WHOA. OKAY, that didn't look very tall. I don't think this [__] matters anymore. I'm escaping with my life. I'm out of here. My life is mine and I'm keeping it. Okay, just follow the trail that I've never gone down before. Ah, this is leading to salvation for sure. Uh, there's a light in the distance.

Yeah, it's probably just a ranger. Probably just another guy looking for me. Jimmy Jojo. Oh. Oh, they mangled him. Just keep going in a straight line. Eventually, you're you have to hit something. If you walk in a straight line, you have to hit civilization eventually. that. And I don't think they can keep up in a straight line. They're really bad at it, actually. Tape over. Come on. Tape over. One of them shows up right in front of me. I'm going to punch him in the face if he has one. If he doesn't have a face, I'm just going to guess. Punch him somewhere. It hurts.

Okay, dead end again. What? Oh, I just run out the clock. Yeah, go towards the lights. That's helped me so far. It's like a little drone. Oh, [__] Oh, Okay, he's blind as [__] Can't see my light. Can't see me. Can't hear anything. Yeah, it's a tree. Oh. Mom's here. MOM FOUND ME. I'm sorry. I made fun of you. Trees are new to me, too. What do I do? Oh my god. OH, THEY'RE SO WEIRD. WHY do you LOOK LIKE THAT? Oh god. Where do I go? Oh [__] Oh [__] Oh [__] Oh [__] Oh They look like creepy bald old men. They got like little titties.

Am I supposed to get caught? Leave me alone. Oh my god, they seem so close. Never mind. They're so slow. They're just going to run around forever. Can't catch me, dumb asses. All your advanced technology and you can't even run. Dead end. Give them the dukes. around the rock. They're trees are new to them. Rocks are going to be a [__] blindsided surprise. Where'd your friend go? Huh? gave up. Couldn't keep up with [__] Usain Bolt over here. I'm gone. I can do this all day. Can you? I won't get hungry. But you will, this dumbass.

Wait, where did the other one go? He's going to Oh, he's going to sneak up on me, isn't he? He's there. I see him. I see them. The friends are back. They got the band back together. Oh, I heard something. Okay, just catch me. Weirdos. They had an eye on their head. THANK YOU FOR PLAYING THE tall man tapes. If you enjoyed the game, please leave a positive review.

Well, that was the tall man tapes. That was cool. Honestly, I quite like that. Anything with aliens in it, I'm a sucker for anyway. I like games like this with aliens in them coming to get my [__] It's just cool. I'm I always love those movies when I was a kid. I love those games.
