calling your parents and your mom nudging you and giving you advice that's designed to prompt you into remembering something important or asking you a rhetorical question to remind you what you're doing, but then you can ask to put your dad on the phone and he will give you exact, explicit, step-by-step instructions to the next objective, is SO funny and inspired. i love that.

i did not love painting stuff or the puzzles or traversals that involved painting stuff and did not feel compelled to continue. but the parents thing, i can't get over.
