Loading Bug Sends Miu’s Invokyr Team Back to Its Last Save

AKA VIRTUAL — Miu and her teammates lost about 43 minutes of progress in Invokyr on Wednesday evening, when the game stalled just after the group reached level 4 and the team realized the last save was that old. The stream was titled “JUMANJI LAGIH,” Indonesian for “Jumanji again.”

Miu opened by saying the group had cleared all five boards in an earlier room, which unlocked a new room she compared to a Harry Potter wizarding school, and that they now had three boards finished at the base rank. She said the next rank came with its own rules, including random monsters the team had not met before. She played with Jun, Eira and Kei; Kei had a stream of her own scheduled for 9 p.m. and planned to stay only briefly.

“Don’t forget to drink plenty of water and have dinner.” — Miu, signing off

The first hour was a scramble of hiding from monsters, hunting for idols and throwing dice. The team switched off haunted televisions, ran from a gunman, a horse and ballerinas, and shared damage and healing. Midway through, the game froze while the group was between rooms, with a player’s character looping on screen. After a few minutes of checking whether they had to start over, they decided they did. Kei then left to prepare her own stream, and the remaining three went shopping, buying stamina, health and a compass that had dropped to 800 from 1,000.

Later, a crocodile in one room set off a long round of screaming and laughing from the team. Miu said she could not keep a straight face and was feeling queasy by the end of it. Near the end of the night the group cleared another run and Miu counted the top rank they had reached as five.

Miu ended the stream because Eira had to leave. She said she would play again the next day with Alora, who had a broomstick class.
