I’ve been playing video games for decades, and SO many funny things have happened, that who knows what the funniest thing was?
However, I used to run a Minecraft server where I set up various adventure locations with treasure and clues to find them and so on. And some kids who played on it had begged me to set up some great treasure somewhere, and I did, but I made it VERY far away, and put clues in that involved algebra to solve. Really pretty simple algebra, I thought, but they consulted “the best kid in their class at math” and he was confused, because it wasn’t in the standard formula they were told about in class…
Eventually, they got a compass in the game, and figured out more or less where they needed to go, and that it would take a LONG time to get there (like, hours of running). So they planned a sleep-over party, and stocked up on supplies and equipment, and started trying to make the trip, late at night…
They had got most of the way to their destination, when they noticed a pyramid ahead. This was back when game-generated pyramids were a new thing, and only one of the kids knew much about them. They couldn’t resist going to check it out, and they went inside. Before the kid who knew about them could give a warning, the other kid started looting and/or opening up a hole in the floor, and the other kid just said, “NOOOOOOooooooooo!!!” but it was too late, and the traps were set off and they both fell to their deaths and died!
They gave up for the night.
