Not really. Scaperune is a sort of mirror world. The 200th Quest World is just the same world as Real World except without the Player Character.


We know very little about ScapeRune, it could very well be the cause of everything being so different.
Thinks Treasure Hunter uses the same mechanics Free**um games, and thereby targets people who are at risk for gambling addiction.

Not really tho. It's not so much different as it is 'everything is the opposite'. It's closer to the Spirit Realm than anything.

It wouldn't be the first time the facts in the game are different from what we are told. There are dozens of canon-books ingame with incorrect information. They simply present the perspective from the author.
Why would all the information (which is already very little) we have on ScapeRune be any different? That we are told it is the 'exact' opposite (let's just say exact opposite isn't a term that in it's own right is open to discussion) doesn't mean that that is the factual truth.
And if it is, where is this island-sized pond in which we throw raw fish we got out of a cat's stomach?

Okay then, let's go through what we know for sure about ScapeRune. And mind you, almost everything we know about ScapeRune we do in fact know for sure.

Under your theory, I could accept the Party Room being turned into a prison, at a stretch (by the old Black Knight's Fortress quest being twisted, and even that's been retconned out of existence), though I confess we're only told that Evil Bob runs the place.

It's an even bigger stretch to imagine Bob turning evil and gaining phenomenal cosmic powers due to our absence, though I could maybe see the former part through a twisted Tail of Two Cats.

As for the Island, you're correct in stating that it has no real world counterpart. But, what event resulting from our absence could result in all fish in the sea being cooked alive and all fire being granted the power to uncook things instead of cook them?

The very last thing we so much as maybe know about ScapeRune is that the Evil Chicken's counterpart is the Cheery Old Chicken, though in keeping with your theory, we were only told that, we don't know it for sure.

One more thing: ScapeRune used to be Gielinor's moon, but that was retconned away, probably around the same time Zanaris was retconned into its place.
