Why it works
The narration poses a concrete hidden-land question by 0:42, then uses numerical comparisons from 0:45–1:25 to establish scale. The staged map removal at 2:38–3:05 pays off that question; a second map state at 4:16–4:27 renews interest after the first reveal. The 79 internal graphic changes keep the visuals moving despite only 16 detected shots across six minutes.
