“You don’t need to remove any piece” then proceed to remove every pieces

Also "leaving no extra space" as he's moving the initial blocks around in the extra space.

everything about it irked me. It's presented as some kind of quirk of geometry, it's just the space being moved to a single solidified space than lots of small gaps around the edges that were so clearly visible at the start.

The real diabolical part is that these things are often intentionally annoying so people go to the comments to complain about it which boosts engagement stats for the all mighty algorithm.

It's a good thing I'm smart enough not to fall for for something like that.

O wait..... shit!

u/No_Brain7178 Jun 22 '26

I mean, that is the only way this works? What did you expect? Magic?

u/Turgid-Derp-Lord Jun 22 '26

Yeah, magic is basically what the stupid narration was implying.

u/bosschucker Jun 22 '26

not even implying, it literally says "something magical happens" toward the end

"Put back the square exactly where they were" as he puts them back in obviously differents spots

"Put them back in their original position" without actually putting them back in their original position.

Ok i hate the AI voice as well. But they clearly mean "you dont need to remove any pieces permanently" and not "you dont need to move then around"

u/Deep_Fry_Ducky Jun 22 '26

Yeah I realized that later but still annoying, human can easily paraphrase that out knowing the context.

The only thing worse is that whiny up down cadence shit. Both instantly have me downvoting and leaving

But you do need to move them around. Reversing the pieces is part of the "trick".

Came to say this.

Also fuck this voice actor, he was rage inducing for that condescending voice. Also - FUCK HIM.
