About
Manual Samuel is a hilarious, hand-drawn adventure game with a wild twist. After making a deal with Death, our hero, the spoiled rich-kid Samuel, must survive for 24 hours controlling his entire body manually.
From breathing and blinking to driving and working, all these tasks will fall to you. It won’t be easy, with Death himself tagging along for the ride, you might be in some very deep feces!

- Overhauled the game to fix a number of gameplay bugs and introduce a number of quality of life improvements
- Visual updates, revamped character animations, new and improved audio effects, updated controller support
- Added Simplified and Traditional Chinese subtitles - read feces in up to 12 languages
- 8 new achievements to discover and unlock!

Using your keyboard or controller, you’ll have to manually breathe, blink, drink, walk, talk and more — one clumsy input at a time. Can you keep Samuel alive, or will he flop his way back to the afterlife?

From getting dressed, driving to work and (checks notes…) fighting robots? - Help Samuel navigate his day to ensure he returns to his lavish life and girlfriend!
Looking to lose friends or break up with your significant other? Then this mode is perfect for you!

- Unique, hand-drawn 2D art and animation brings the world of Manual Samuel to life in glorious high resolution!
- Five in-game comics exploring the backstory of Manual Samuel's characters
- Master the brutal 'Speedrun' and 'Challenge' modes across each chapter
- Scintillating soundtrack by Sondre Jensen and Ozan Drøsdal
- Over 600 lines of dialogue expertly executed by our eloquent voice actors

很好笑,自己一个人听着旁白的吐槽都要笑死了,不敢想如果有朋友一起玩得吵成什么样,但是优化能不能做好点?推荐用手柄又不支持改按键,我只会用任天堂按键啊。好吧键位都是反的我忍了,但是玩着玩着手柄又不好使了啥意思,转不了弯到最后啥都干不了,只能退出重进,那章存档就没了,太考验人耐心了。 通关了哈哈哈哈,居然是这么完整的故事结局还皆大欢喜
Fun with friends
Got to drive some homies around in my fully functional manual car, while having to Inhale, Exhale, and Blink while also dodging old ladies crossing the road and being an accomplice to a few drive-by shootings every couple of blocks. 10/10 Would get hit by a truck again!
