About Manual Samuel

Wealthy, handsome, and... dead? Samuel strikes a deal with Death for one last shot at life, but only if he can survive a day doing everything manually. Blink, breathe, walk, and work - Guide Sam in this darkly humorous and brutally difficult adventure!

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!
