Misplaced Wildlife | |
| Jumanji / int_17a45ff5 | comment |
Misplaced Wildlife: Justified. The jungle that the Jumanji world is composed of is not a real-world environment, but a fantastical, magical creation of the game that seems based on a 19th Century, pop-culture, Common Knowledge understanding of the jungle, hence all sorts of misplaced wildlife spring from it. For instance, lions and black rhinos don't live in the jungle. | |

Riddle for the Ages | |
| Jumanji / int_96a33f11 | comment |
Riddle for the Ages: Who made Jumanji? What sort of magic did they use? Are the jungle and the city real places (alternate dimension or otherwise) to which the game is merely a portal or a fictional world of the game's creation? We'll never know, and, in-universe, characters who've played the game don't want to know. | |
