About
Swampletics is the name of an Old School Runescape account run by YouTuber Settled. In addition to standard Ultimate Ironman restrictions, which forbids trading with other players and banking any items, the account also has the self-imposed challenge of being restricted to the Morytania region of the game world. The series has gained notable popularity online, particularly on the /r/2007scape subreddit, and spawned a various collection of images, memes, and fan art.

On December 21st, 2018, Settled’s YouTube channel uploaded the first part to the new Ultimate Ironman series, gaining over 550,000 views (shown below). Since the release of episode one, Settled’s channel has gained over 100,000 subscribers.
Spread
As of March 13th, 2019, there have been fourteen episodes in the Swampletics series, with each video gaining hundreds of thousands of views (examples shown below). Settled's character was covered by Forbes on February 28th, 2019.[1]
The series grew popular among Runescape players, and each new episode is regularly celebrated on /r/2007scape in threads that gain thousands of points.[2][3][4] Additionally, the series has also inspired numerous pieces of fan artwork and jokes related to the series on the subreddit.
