This article is about 8-Ball in Inanimate Insanity. For the Battle for Dream Island character, see 8-Ball.
8-Ball is a recommended character in Inanimate Insanity, who appeared in "A New Stage In The Game". He is voiced by Adam Katz.
Personality[]
8-Ball is more of a floater than a contributor. There is nothing special that he has done, but his favorite number is 79.
Appearance[]
8-Ball is fairly large and round with an 8 at the top. He is completely a shiny shade of black. The eight is surrounded by white. He originally bore a striking resemblance to 8-Ball from BFDI , but his design was changed in 2021 to avoid confusion, making his body now 270 degrees rotated, and as shown in his and Dictionary's poses in the anniversary image, he seems to be like a magic 8-ball now.
Coverage[]
Appearances[]
In "A New Stage In The Game", 8-Ball is one of 10 contestants shown off to the viewers who have a chance to rejoin.
In "War De Guacamole", 8-Ball is welcomed to the paintball gun challenge, along with the other 9 players. However, Magnifying Glass attempts to use 8-Ball as a shield, resulting in him getting hit and losing the game.
Trivia[]
- 8-Ball's favorite number (79) is actually a hidden joke, as eight is between 7 and 9, remove eight from 789 and you get 79 (8-Ball's favorite number).
- There is an 8-Ball in Battle for Dream Island that is quite similar (and has the same recommender) to the 8-Ball here, although that 8-Ball doesn't have a favorite number which is a recurring gag and main personality trait.
- His design was later changed so that people don't mistake him for said 8-Ball.
- 8-Ball's 2017 appearance reuses BFDI 8-Ball's BFDIA 13-onwards asset, but like mentioned before, it was changed to an original asset to avoid confusion.
- He might now be a magic 8 ball rather than a billiard 8 ball, given both that the number has a shape more like the one found in magic 8 balls and that he's shown in the official Inanimate Insanity poster being violently shaken by Dictionary, much like how magic 8 balls in real life are shaken.
