* ''VideoGame/AmandaTheAdventurer'' is an AnalogHorror game that could best be described as ''Dora the Explorer'' meets ''Film/TheRing''. The game is based around a popular local access TV show that stars a spunky young heroine named Amanda and her best friend Woolie, based on Dora and Boots respectively, and the dark, horrifying secrets it hides behind its cutesy exterior. Many tropes familiar to ''Dora'' are featured, such as {{Animate Inanimate Object}}s [[spoiler:(here implied to be viewers [[TrappedInTVLand sucked into and trapped within the show's world]])]], FakeInteractivity [[spoiler:([[NoInnerFourthWall that may not be as fake as it seems]])]], and even a Swiper-analogue [[spoiler:(dead after being caught in a bear-trap)]].
