Old School RuneScape players are reportedly getting boats wedged in a narrow river on the game’s newly introduced island, producing comparisons with ships becoming stuck in the Suez Canal. The mishaps have become a humorous community moment, with players jokingly calling for help using phrases such as “Helmp mee”.

The article highlights an unintended consequence of the island’s waterway design: boats can struggle to navigate its tight passage. While apparently minor, the issue has drawn attention because it disrupts travel and has prompted players to share screenshots and jokes online.
