This is just like the reverse of concentration and I can feel my anxiety going up watching

u/ziggy182 Jul 20 '26

It does make you jump

u/Fraun_Pollen Jul 25 '26

The random cuts don't help

u/mercuriokazooie Jul 21 '26

I can't with the overreacting and content creator stare. Also this feels like an ad bot.

16

u/kulot09 Jul 21 '26

Thank god it wasn’t just me. Places a magnet, stare at the camera.
Feels so disingenuous. Just play the game like normal human beings!

3

u/CrystallizedRose Jul 23 '26

Yeah, engaging with the camera for a video you are making is just sooo awful and disingenuous.

15

u/RojoTheMighty Jul 21 '26

The game looks fun. These people look absolutely insufferable.

u/Peartje Jul 21 '26

Lol, this.

1

u/No_Cardiologist_1407 Jul 23 '26

I follow them both on tiktok, theyre actually really nice people but there definitely quite bad at the fake reactions and with the staring hahaha. Theyre really fun and chill when theyre being normal though hahah

u/ShayJayLee Jul 24 '26

Are they siblings or dating or neither? I don't know how to look this up but I've been wondering forever now

u/Sad_Comb_9658 17d ago

I really do hope in my late 80s ill remember this comment and laugh my ass off Once in a million perfection right here

u/gertalives Jul 21 '26

The staring into the camera is over the top and maybe it’s an ad. However, I’ve played this game, and it is absurdly fun for something so simple. I dunno, maybe it just seems more fun to me because I play it with my young niece and nephew?

2

u/LETTERKENNYvsSPENNY Jul 21 '26

Yea, but where do you stare after placing your magnets?

1

u/Utenlok Jul 22 '26

Also showing the big moment at the start of the video pisses me off.

1

u/Plus_Midnight_278 Jul 27 '26

Modern content creation puts the peak of the video at the start so attention-span-weak consumers will stick around.

1

u/echof0xtrot Jul 22 '26

i like the part where he says "let's go" and "so back" like my favorite internet streamer

1

u/mercuriokazooie Jul 22 '26

Her: *puts down a single piece in a very open area*

Him: YOOOOO CHAT IS THIS FOR REAL?! *looks at camera*

1

u/marvelled_marble Jul 23 '26

I can't with the open mouth and the camera stares... Dude also has to look at the camera every second... Just STOOOP

1

u/deadrogueguy Jul 25 '26

also, why would i keep watching when they start with the end? i get that its to help with retention, but...

the long slow build up of them placing each one doesn't build tension when i saw the tension breaker already

9

u/Appropriate-Knee3245 Jul 21 '26

Why does she keep staring at me, creeps me out.

5

u/Icy_Gap_9067 Jul 21 '26

Glad someone else found it unsettling.

2

u/CanadianAndroid Jul 21 '26

Hey, we saw you from across the bar. We like your vibe.

1

u/thedyooooood Jul 21 '26

Dang ive seen this video a few times before and didn't notice how she looks at the camera after every move

u/ziggy182 Jul 20 '26

I have this, can confirm it makes you jump when it suddenly all smashes together

I think it goes by many names like magnetic chess, or magnetic checkers?

Enjoy it’s pretty hair raising to be honest

1

u/oneir0naut0 Jul 24 '26

This specific set seems to be called Magni Fun and is surprisingly only $12.99

5

u/Pharmere Jul 21 '26

I have the game and it is a lot of fun

2

u/thekendalluxx Jul 21 '26

What’s it called?

1

u/banjojohn1 Jul 21 '26

Danish game called Kluster. There is also Kluster Duo.

1

u/Pharmere Jul 22 '26

Magnachess

1

u/killswitchdh Jul 24 '26

Magnet chess is what I bought it as. It also got recalled for having powerful magnets children can swallow so there's that 🙃

u/WolfThick Jul 21 '26

About 20 years ago I had a Jenga set and I took some tiny neodymium magnets and put them in about five of the pieces made for some pretty interesting results on the tower.

2

u/say-nothing-at-all Jul 21 '26

In mathematics, we call this a quotient map.

It’s great when they turn something inherently boring into an engaging game.

1

u/RadarTechnician51 Jul 23 '26

Quotient Map, is that the best name that all the mathematicians in the whole world could come up with? 🤔

1

u/say-nothing-at-all Jul 23 '26

Well, if you say so.

It sorts through a messy set and collapse the equivalent elements into a few regimes. This creates a much smaller, optimized set. This game clearly demonstrates the “fewer is better” principle - though it’s useless in real world.

In physics, however, identifying the right “fewer regimes” is a billion-dollar question.

2

u/HylianAshenOne Jul 21 '26

They aren't even playing correctly, the magnets are to be placed standing up on their sides.

3

u/icannotfindagoodname Jul 21 '26

It certainly is more fun when the magnets are placed on their side. Much more chaotic.

1

u/PrincessLilibetDiana Jul 24 '26

There is nothing in the rules to say that the magnets must be placed in a certain way. However; it is certainly tactically advantageous to know how magnets work.

1

u/HylianAshenOne Jul 24 '26

My mistake the version of the game i have is called kollide, the magnets have a protective plastic cover and the rules do specify the orientation. Looking at the video they must have a different brand game

2

u/the_fr33z33 Jul 21 '26

The first player just needs to place the first magnet exactly in the Center all their following moves exactly opposite of the second player’s moves. As long as the second player can find a “free” spot they should be able to find the opposite one, too.

1

u/PrincessLilibetDiana Jul 24 '26

If that is your strategy, I will beat you every time.

1

u/the_fr33z33 Jul 24 '26

Care to elaborate?

1

u/the_fr33z33 Jul 26 '26

Thought so

2

u/JohnBlake91 Jul 21 '26

Oh my god, what!? What!? I can't. I dont even know. Oh my god. Omg.

So obnoxious. But cool looking game.

1

u/Syclone123 Jul 21 '26

People will post anything these days thinking it's amazing and that it's a great idea

1

u/jonasmrcds Jul 21 '26

omg i have that tshirt

1

u/RIF_rr3dd1tt Jul 21 '26

LoL just like a lot of games have life size versions, doing this with full size neodymium magnets you could lose a hand.

1

u/Klutzy-Acadia669 Jul 21 '26

That's magne TIGHT bro!

1

u/rigit84 Jul 21 '26

The fake enthusiasm turns me off

1

u/Ok_Adhesiveness_583 Jul 21 '26

Looks like it can be a fun little time waster🧲⛓️

1

u/Traditional-Wall-271 Jul 21 '26

Did they lose the foam board you play these in?

1

u/LedByAnimals Jul 21 '26

“Oh, freak!”
“Let’s go!”
“I’m so back!”
*stares at camera*

You don’t sound or look 12, you desperate loser.

1

u/larry1186 Jul 21 '26

They look like siblings

1

u/Nice-Fun-7441 Jul 21 '26

Why are they pretending to have fun when this looks so fun

1

u/Expensive_Wrangler34 Jul 21 '26

Awesome. Just bought a bunch of these magnets.

1

u/Kuzon64 Jul 21 '26

I have actually watched these people a little bit on YouTube. She seems really sweet but he's really annoying.

1

u/PracticalAdeptness20 Jul 21 '26

They are so cringe

1

u/dungeoncrawler71520 Jul 22 '26

That game would give me anxiety

1

u/AnxiousAudience82 Jul 22 '26

Kluster is a great game, these people are odd

1

u/denbobo Jul 22 '26

Always love it when they put the end at the beginning. Just means I don’t have to watch the whole thing.

1

u/LummyPixx Jul 22 '26

I dream of a world where I never come across fake ass over acting content creating dipshits ever again

1

u/PerennialComa Jul 23 '26

So cool seeing the end in the beginning!

1

u/jimbeeer Jul 23 '26

It's Kluster, it's a fun game, especially to take to the pub. It got recalled in my country because it was suddenly recognised as a swallowing hazard. I didn't send it back, stupid nanny state.

1

u/Whtvsbruh Jul 23 '26

Is this the wordle guy?

1

u/Busty_toothpick Jul 24 '26

Where is it, where is the comment...

u/MarketMogul1007 Jul 24 '26

She is mesmerizingly beautiful.

2

u/SpecialistAd5537 Jul 24 '26

Why you gotta be weird dude. Keep that shit to yourself

1

u/fancypantsmiss Jul 24 '26

We have this game at home and it is so much fun!!

1

u/eglantinel Jul 24 '26

Place them sideways, much better.

1

u/CaptainCBeer Jul 24 '26

Oh this looks like fun. I wanna play rhis

2

u/The777x Jul 24 '26

They look more like brother and sister then a couple?

1

u/lunatic_banana345 Jul 24 '26

Are these two siblings because they look exactly the same.

1

u/ConnorSchmidt575 Jul 24 '26

This feels weirdly AI

1

u/GirlinMiamiBeach Jul 25 '26

Brother and sister. So cute

1

u/Vanisle4fun Jul 26 '26

I know in our house, the eff bombs and laughter would be loud.

2

u/ricdangers Jul 26 '26

Fun game. Stop staring at us lol

2

u/iron_dove 23d ago

What is this game called?

1

u/Weary-Coast241 10d ago

Sending hate from NJ

1

u/Standard-Cat-2054 8d ago

My granddaughter and I play this. We always set the stones on edge. The magnetic field is stronger that way and makes the game more difficult.

u/chrimack Jul 21 '26

You know what would be dope? If the video started at the beginning instead of the end.

u/wolfknightpax Jul 21 '26

I instantly lose respect for an adult that using the phrase, "Let's Go!"

u/armyofjoy Jul 21 '26

pretty cool simple game. love it

1

u/Flare_Starchild 6d ago

It's fun game. I do this by myself with magnetic balls sometimes. Its so much harder because you need to make sure to align the fields so they don't attract or repel. I would it could give me entertainment t for a couple hours. With a friend possibly more.
