}}Manual Samuel is an adventure video game by Perfectly Paranormal.[1] It was released on PlayStation 4 on October 11 2016 and on Xbox One and Microsoft Windows on October 14 2016.[2] The Nintendo Switch version was released on August 16 2018.[3]

Gameplay

Manual Samuel is a 2D animated adventure sidescroller where players control all of the bodily functions of main protagonist Sam. This ranges from taking individual steps using alternating buttons to move each foot to pressing a key for Sam to blink. The goal of the game is to help Sam make it through the day in this manual fashion.[4]

Plot

Sam, the son of a wealthy CEO, is hit by a septic truck while chasing after his distraught girlfriend. Finding himself in Hell (where all residents must get jobs), Sam makes a deal with the skateboard-loving Death to return to life under the conditions that he must survive 24 hours performing all bodily functions manually.

After a disastrous day at work, Death inadvertently causes the robots of Sam Sr's company to come to life. With his job on the line, Death forces Sam to volunteer to control a massive, manually controlled robot to help eliminate the robots. Chasing their leader to Mushroom Orphanage, the robot tricks Sam's heat seeking missiles into firing upon the orphanage, killing 300 innocent orphans and sending their souls to heaven.

Death, trying to escape, is confronted by Satan in hell. Angry at the orphans being sent to heaven (due to their age making them too young to sin), Satan throws Death in Hell Jail and the horseman War is forced to take his place. With Death's deal no longer in play and Sam having technically already died, War kills Sam and returns him to hell.

Due to having given his Shreads of Life (Hell's most valuable currency) to Death in exchange for his life, Sam is unable to pay the gatekeeper's toll to get a job and gain access to Hell. Thrown in Hell Jail alongside Death, Death concocts a plan to help them escape through cutting open a demon guard's body and allowing Sam to control it manually from the inside. After slaughtering several of the hell guards, Sam and Death are confronted by Satan, who engages Sam in a sword fight. While initially losing, Death successfully performs a kickflip for the first time in his existence, distracting Satan, who has never managed to perform one himself despite having skated longer than Death, and allowing Sam to slash Satan with a sword.

Satan, upset at his injury, demands Death to send him to a hell hospital and ignores Sam entirely. With Death no longer in jail, he offers to bring Sam back to life and gives him one final wish of his choosing. Sam wishes that the 300 orphans would come back to life, before returning to earth and reuniting with his girlfriend as a changed man.

During the credits, a series of slides show the aftermath of the game; Sam finally remembered his girlfriend's birthday, and bought her three presents to make up for the three birthdays in a row he had forgotten, Death finally landed a kickflip and went on a date with War, the Four Horsemen got two weeks of paid vacation, as well as a boost to their salary, Sam Sr's company got even more money from the publicity of having 300 orphans come back to life in front of it, and the demons Sam killed returned to life and hold no hard feelings towards him.
