    Back in 2013, a RPG Maker game was released called Kanye Quest 3030. AS far as we know, this was not an official game from Kanye West and his team, but it did include his digital likeness. Why am I bringing up this game? Theorists, I think there is a dark secret hiding within it. An ARG with some... less than pure intentions. It is time to unravel the mystery that was Kanye Quest 3030.

There is something a tad strange about the game- especially since halfway though it, when the Turnip Boy walks back into a room he's already been, they see a ghost walk to the other side of the door. The moment that Turnip Boy follows though, the ghost is gone.

    Theory: Ascensionism is a fake cult created by Phenix to make the player truly think he was joining a cult. He brainstormed it and tried to "start" it back in 2006, and only truly got it off the ground when it comes to its tenets in 2011-2012, around the same time he started developing Kanye Quest.

    • @kippakat
      @kippakat Před 2 lety +23

      It also seems very similar to the Illuminati. Especially the symbol and idea of “ascension”. The eye with the pyramid inside (I believe) is supposed to be like the Illuminati symbol, a pyramid with an eye inside. And both of their ideals include ascension. Phenix very well could have been inspired by the Illuminati to conjure up Ascensionism on his own. Kanye West also has theories surrounding him that he is part of the Illuminati. It makes it very believable that this game is inspired by that.

    Ascensionism reminds me of shifting in a way, "More than just a world, a feeling, or a concept. Ascension is a state of existence. It's the space between Reality and Fantasy, the only place that allows all the things that the mind can create to completely coexist with all that reality has to offer, and all that it withholds." It's creepy how shifting became suddenly so popular on TikTok in the past 6 months, and how a bunch of people everywhere are trying to move their concious through time and space to go to another reality. It all doesnt sit well with me.

    i feel like nothing ever came out of this because the general public was eventually made aware about the secrets, despite being told not to tell anyone, as the said "cult" was searching for recruits and since merely everyone that played the game decided to take to this mysterious hidden part of the game, the recruitment had no validity or purpose anymore.

      Whether you're trying to get someone involved in a cult or just trying to sell them something you're going to exploit human psychology, generally by making people feel good about themselves and feel like they're part of a larger community or at least by connecting to them on some common grounds (current memes). That's also why so many brands have twitter accounts, they're trying to make people feel like they are their friends.

    Dear Game Theory,
    I greatly enjoy the variety of games you theorize about. This video is just as intriguing as your other ones. However, I feel a particular game hides a large amount of lore. One not many people would think twice to check: Geometry Dash. If you ever read this and do a video on Geometry Dash, I will be extremely grateful. Thank you.
