Wonder Quest was an edutainment children’s web series from Disney’s Maker Studios. It was created by Joseph Garrett, a prominent YouTube commentator who posts videos primarily set in the sandbox game Minecraft as his internet persona "Stampy Cat".[1] The series was scripted by Patrick Muhlberger, Ryan Burns, and Garrett, and produced by Muhlberger.[2] The Minecraft educational content was initially developed by Adam Clarke, who stars alongside Garrett as his own persona, "Wizard Keen".[3]

Featured on the Wonder Quest YouTube channel, Maker Studios described the series as a spinoff series of Joseph Garrett’s main YouTube channel, starring the character Stampy Cat.[1] Citing the runaway success of Minecraft as inspiration for Wonder Quest at the MIPTV television industry conference in Cannes, Garrett states that “if you take their engagement and put it into a more productive space like education or the arts, they’re going to be involved in that, they’re going to be engaged”.[4]

Wonder Quest premiered on April 25, 2015. By December 2016, the series had garnered over 101 million views.[5] The first episode of season 2 was released on August 20, 2016.[1] The series ended on a cliffhanger on November 5, 2016.

In October 2024, every video on the Wonder Quest channel was made private for unknown reasons.
