Evan asks Cosmo about the strange world he finds himself in.
Let's Play: Quest to Save IRL is a mock video game play-through video created by Cosmo and starring Evan. The video depicts Evan living in an RPG and interacting with various friends and items as he tries figuring out why he is in the game. The film is partially-inspired by a previous project by CGSP, known as Quest to Save the Internet.
Synopsis[]
Evan wakes up to find himself mysteriously laying in the middle of Comso's driveway. After exploring the environment for a while, he finds his brother Ian. After Evan asks why he can only communicate through text, Ian explains that everyone has been wondering the same, and that Evan should go talk to Cosmo about it. Evan meets with Cosmo, who explains that an answer might be found in the backyard. For protection, Evan fetches a wooden sword from Cosmo's garage. After returning, Cosmo suggests that they should have a training battle to level up Evan's strength. After the fight, Evan levels up and goes off to explore the backyard.
