Best. Game. Ever.



'''Best. Game. Ever.''' is Cartoon Network's online game about Total Drama Action. This game was introduced on June 12, 2009. In it players portray a new intern working for Chris. In the game players can interact with the castmates, battle enemies, and buy powerups, almost like Total Drama Island:Totally Interactive for season one. The game runs off the same engine used to create Cartoon Network's previous MMO, Big Fat Awesome House Party.

Alliances

 * see: Best. Game. Ever. Alliances

Trivia

 * The new game for the week is on the website at 12:00PM EST, which is nine hours before the episode actually airs.


 * Despite being voted off the show, the castmates remain in the area.


 * When talking to the castmates, most of them quote themselves from an episode in Total Drama Action.


 * Beth used be be standing next to the boy's trailer but now she stands near the restroom with Lindsay.


 * The game has a feature that allows players to make and break alliances with the castmates. Originally, it was supposed to be activated on week five. This was changed to week nine.


 * All castmates (excluding Gwen, DJ, Lindsay, Owen, and Justin) that made it to episode seven appeared in studio #5.
 * It is strange that neither Gwen nor Lindsay were locked in a cage or even appeared in the studio despite the fact that they participated in the challenge.


 * The items Chris had the player to get during week Six were old items from the first season. These included:
 * The dodgeball Harold caught from Dodgebrawl.
 * Gwen's Diary from Not Quite Famous.
 * A celebrity standee Duncan had to hug in Phobia Factor.
 * The tiki doll Beth took from Boney Island in Up the Creek.


 * When buying clothes from Chef's Powerup machine, the word "suck" is shown, which is usually censored by Cartoon Network. Chris also says "sucker" when players give him Alien Eggs and Heather calls the Gaffers a "team of morons."


 * The design for the female avatar player loosely resembles Sadie's prototype design.


 * When the game was first introduced, Heather was wearing her wig. She now appears bald as a result of losing it in Alien Resurr-eggtion.


 * Studio #6 is the first studio to have an intersection.


 * When a player opens the Ally section on the main menu, there are fifteen spots for frenemies instead of fourteen, hinting Courtney's return.


 * According to what happened in the game, The Trunk of Mind Blowing Secrets did contain something within it but the contents were destroyed during the testing of paint bombs. Chris then decided to just let the castmates battle for the empty chest. He also tells the player not to tell the castmates it's empty.


 * If players become a castmate's frenemy, the picture of them is simply the picture used to show they are their ally, the only differences are that their smile is turn upside down and the border is orange instead of green. (The only exceptions are Heather, Trent, and LeShawna's photos).


 * On Week Twelve, when DJ is in the kitchen, Chef is in the lot instead of DJ.


 * If a castmate ask you to defeat a certain amount of spiders in a studio, and if you fall for a trap set by a frenemy, the spiders you defeat in the trap will still count toward your goal (unless you are in a different studio than your ally instructed you to be in).


 * DJ's secret ingredient is revealed to be paprika.


 * Some characters are used for messages for the game. For example, Gwen is shown on the error message and Duncan appears when a guest is being asked if they want to remain as such.


 * Studio #8 is the first studio to have designs on more than just the front. There are cracks on the roof too. However, this is the only example seen so far.


 * Studio #10 is the first studio to have prop studio buildings in it.


 * Studios #3, #4, and #5 are the only studios to have two types of opponents in them.
 * Studio #17 is the first studio to have a seperate room that you can enter.


 * Even though Izzy hates Justin, she never pulls pranks on him (Although, if Heather is a frenemy when you have a task from Izzy, she picks Justin) What's stranger is if both Heather and Justin are frenemies, Izzy's next victim of choice is Beth, someone who Izzy doesn't seem to have a conflict with.
 * This also seems to be the case with the rest of the castmates as well. If all castmates are your frenemies, you will prank the original target of the member of the player's alliance.


 * The week 16 oil for apple juice prank is similar to the prank Duncan did to Harold in Basic Straining.
 * In addition the chocolate laxative muffin prank from week 20 is similar to the prank Heather attempted on Gwen in The Very Last Episode, Really!


 * Sometimes, If you have just switched genders, and preceed to get attacked both genders have the same scream.


 * In Studio #14, one half of the super hero's posters resembles Trent's head.
 * Also in Studio #14, the other super hero poster resembles DJ's head.


 * In Studio #14, the super hero stuck in the ground resembles Spider Man.


 * The Bears, Aliens in Studio #1 and Sharks in Studio #3 are the only enemies that make a stomping noise when they move (all other enemies make a skittering noise).


 * In Studio 17, there is a poster with a gray Ezekiel on it.


 * In Studio 17, the interns are wearing make-up similar to the make-up worn by the rock band 'Kiss.'


 * The Marshmallow stick weapon is similar to the marshmallow boxing gloves in Million Dollar Babies, interestingly enough, the previous weapon, the badminton racket, is also used in that same episode.


 * The description for the badminton racket is a quote from Chris's movie Badminton: The Movie.


 * The kung-fu master in studio #18 is Sasquatchanakwa.


 * The person on top of Studio 17 looks similar to Trent.
 * During week 22, Chris says that the path to victory is "long and twisted, like Heather's wig". This is referencing her second wig.
 * The flux capacitar you need to get in week 23 is a reference to the movie Back to the Future.

Goofs

 * The Studios in the game are much smaller on the outside than the average studio, but the inside is huge. This could be possibly explained with stairs between areas.


 * Strangely, the player could enter Studio #18 even when it was closed. However, the glitch seems to be fixed. Adding to this, when someone exited Studio #18, they were shown standing in front of Studio #6. This glitch is now fixed as well.


 * On the advertisement for the game, DJ is seen holding bunny, however he is never seen with Bunny in Total Drama Action. However, a bunny makes a cameo appearance in Studio #7 during Week Twelve.
 * In addition, Heather is seen with her real hair in the ad as well.
 * Also on the ad, Gwen's entire chest and stomach are covered by her shirt. However, Gwen's shirt originally shows some skin above her chest.


 * In Monster Cash, Chef says that the bear is only on contract for one more day, however in the southern woods, there are multiple bears who are still on the film set.


 * On the third task of Monster Cash challenge, Chris said "Talk to the intern in the northeastern city." However, the city is in the northwestern part of the area. He most likely meant the northeastern part of the city.


 * When the players exits Studio #3 after making the statue of Chris in the X made of shells, they both happen to disappear.


 * When the player beat the tasks Heather gives on week nine she gives the player her wig, but she lost it in Alien Resurr-eggtion.


 * Beth first mentions her 'boyfriend' in Masters of Disasters (which is playable on Week 10). However on week nine, she says that she wishes her boyfriend were here so he could make things better. But the episode hasn't aired yet, so players in the United States wouldn't know what she's talking about.


 * When a player is a contestant's frenemy due to the contestant being pranked by the player, the contestant always sets a trap for the player, and always shout "This is what you get for pulling pranks on me!" However, when a player ends up being a contestants frenemy due to breaking an alliance with them, they still shout "This is what you get for pulling pranks on me!", but the player never pulled a prank on the contestant, but instead, broke an alliance with them.


 * When the player gives the joke victim the poison ivy toilet paper, the player heads to the east bathroom, but when the player reports back to the castmate, the frenemy comes from the west. The same goof occurs in previous weeks, when the player delivers things to LeShawna and Harold. They come from the west, even though they are standing in the east portion of the set.


 * For unexplained reasons, at least half of the enemies the players fight are never in the show (e.g., The Nurses, Aliens, Cowboys, Soldiers, Crabs, Spiders, etc.).


 * In Studio #4, there is a hole shaped like Harold on the platform. This is strange because in the original challenge, Harold landed correctly on the horse. The only people who missed were Trent and Owen.


 * In the challenge for Ocean's Eight - Or Nine, there are two go-karts, one is green and one is red. However in the game, you only collect green go-kart parts.


 * For some strange reason, Studios Studio #4, 5 & Studio #6 appear behind Studio #1, 2 & 3. Also the player couldn't enter them despite the fact they are open already. Now the glitch is fixed.


 * If you form an alliance with Courtney, you receive six tasks instead of two. This may be a glitch due to her addition to the game.


 * In the game, Studio #6 is themed for the episode One Flu Over The Cuckoos. But in the episode, LeShawna walks out of Studio #4 instead of Studio #6.


 * For unexplained reasons, sometimes the computer glitches and doesn't save your progress, causing you to redo the challenge.


 * In One Million Bucks, B.C., Heather got a new wig, however she is not seen with it in the area.


 * When looking for Courtney's PDA, Trent says Courtney was never on his team. Both are on the Killer Grips (unless Trent means they were never on the same team at the same time).


 * When getting apples for Chris, the intern says he/she needs to return to Chris after only collecting 3 of the 6 needed. This also happens when getting Chris the cans of soda. After collecting the first can, the player claims he must return to Chris.


 * In week 21, Chris asks you to hit the gong in Studio #18. However, there are multiple gongs in the studio.


 * In week 21, Chris asks you to collect 5 different giant robot parts in Studio #18. But all the parts you collect are helmets.


 * If you attack a plant in the Southern Woods, you'll find a coin (silver or gold) a heart, or a spider. However, if the payer defeats a spider found this way, they will recieve the benefits of both the coin and the heart.
 * The week after Top Dog is the first week without a challenge. Instead, new clothes are available.
 * In Crouching Courtney, Hidden Owen Duncan stated that the episode took place at Camp Wawanakwa, it is shown as a studio on Week 22.
 * In Total Drama Action, the castmates easily travel from the Gilded Chris Ceremonies to the Lame-O-Sine, but they are on the other side of the film lot in the game.
 * There is a massive glitch in on Week 25. When you talk to Chris, he says, "Week 25". Then he says you earned a star and are promoted to superstar (along with getting a flag for a weapon), without actually doing anything. Afterwards, he says there isn't a challenge for you. Adding to this, speaking to your ally will automatically adding someone to your frenemy list. Talk to them again and you suddenly recieve the reward, followed by them not saying anything else important. Finally, after all of this, the new studio is still closed. It may be because of the designers needing more time to sort out glitches. This may even mean that you are unable to do the challenges, and have an incomplete game.
 * A studio for the Aftermaths was finally revealed in Week 25. However, it cannot be accessed by players just yet.
