(a barrage of requests pop up asking Fandom Games to do a trailer for Minesweeper)

All right, all right, we get it! But listen, if we're going to do this thing, we're going to need to bring out the big guns.

Nolan North: War... War never changes.

Troy Baker: Feels like I've been sweeping these mines... since the day I was born...

Nolan North: On the battlefield, every split-second decision you make can mean life...

Troy Baker: Right, so there's, like... that-that's, that's a 3, so then... That-That one can't be a mine...

Nolan North: ...or death.

Troy Baker: NOOOOO!!! My lower torso... blegh.

Nolan North: Minesweeper

Troy Baker: Day 57: It's been a long slog across the delta. We lost too many good men, and I'm all out of smokes. I'd give anything to see Susan and little Billy again, but... I got 87 of these things to sweep, and I'll be damned if--

Nolan North: Now, hold on, hold on. Hold on a second.
Troy Baker: I was really getting into it. I was like... I was in it, I was feeling it.

Nolan North: You know, I-I get it. I'm sorry, but, like, I thought we were doing an Honest Game Trailers, and, and, uh...

Troy Baker: No...

Nolan North: Isn't-Isn't it about telling what the game's actually like?

Troy Baker: Yeah, yeah. I just thought, you know, we could do, like, a fun war movie thing. I was doing, like, "Yeah!" Platoon, maybe, or something?

Nolan North: Yeah, but--

Troy Baker: Other-Otherwise, it's just a gray box that we're--

Nolan North: Totally understand. I'm with you, but, you know, if it's an Honest Trailer, shouldn't it kind of be more, I don't know, honest?

Okay, fine, have it your way! Let's talk about the gray box!

Nolan North: I mean... Just saying.

Nolan North: Discover one of nature's most elemental games, a game so ancient and boring that no one will even try to sell it to you.

Troy Baker: Part of the mythical pantheon of gaming experiences that come pre-installed on every Windows computer since time immemorial.

Nolan North: Minesweeper has helped millions of people look busy at work, and allowed children to survive their visits to their grandparents' houses for decades, making it one of the world's only unequivocally good video games.
Troy Baker: It really is too bad that it just sucks to play.

Troy Baker: Resign yourself to finishing a game of Minesweeper and get the RNG rolling with your first click, which has a small chance of just straight-up ending the game.

Nolan North: Then, start working your way around the edges, marking mines and clearing empty spaces by solving simple probability problems like you're playing Math Blaster.

Troy Baker: Until you inevitably get to the part where you don't have enough information. I just have to make a blind-ass guess and hope you don't die.

Nolan North: In a bigger PR nightmare for the bomb-defusal industry than The Hurt Locker.

Troy Baker: That's right. You heard it here, folks: there's politics in Minesweeper.

Nolan North: Experience the insane level of talent people devote to the word's most trivial bullsht.

Troy Baker: As you let the knowledge that there are competitive Minesweeper players wash over you.

Nolan North: And enter a trance-like state as you watch their robot brains beat Minesweeper levels at inhuman speeds.

Troy Baker: Or finish levels that are so huge, they make you tired just by looking at them. Hey, you know what I like to do? I make the board about 500 squares big and put ten mines in it. Then you just click once and win.

Nolan North: Yeah, but then, you're cheating yourself of the... satisfaction of... Eh, go. Never mind; I forgot we were talking about Minesweeper here for a second. Kids, right? Always looking for a shortcut.

Troy Baker: I'm actually five years younger than him.

Nolan North: You go to Hell.
Troy Baker: So grab that metal detector...

Nolan North: And get ready to make a clean sweep.

Troy Baker: In one of the most universal video game experiences ever.

Nolan North: That can still lose in a contest between it and doing absolutely nothing!

Troy Baker: Man, this game is boring. Why did we agree to this again?

Nolan North: (shrugs) I didn't.

Nolan North: Starring: The Slight Rush of Clearing a Bunch of Squares with One Click.

Troy Baker: The Joy of a Flag Filling Itself In.

Nolan North: The Pain of Clicking a Mine Five Minutes Into a Game.

Troy Baker: The Anxiety of Placing a Flag.

Nolan North: And most importantly, The Free Time to Play Minesweeper (which you don't have).

Troy Baker: The Thin Red Mine

Nolan North: Heh, good one, Troy.

The honest title for Minesweeper was 'The Thin Red Mine.'

Nolan North: Hey, this was fun! Mostly.

Troy Baker: Yeah, maybe next time, you know, we can do a... a game that's fun to play.

Nolan North: OK. Well hey, either way, let us know in the comments what you'd like us to do a trailer for next.

Troy Baker: And come check out our videos over on Retro Replay.

Nolan North: Please. And, uh, thanks for watching.

Troy Baker: We love many of you...

Nolan North: But not Minesweeper.
