    Five Word Review: Walk, breathe, blink, stumble. Dammit.
    Favorite Thing: Controlling Samuel is quite the (mostly) unique experience.
    Least Favorite Thing: Far too much trial and error in the final "boss fight".

    Playtime: ~ 2h
    Enjoyment: 7/10
    Recommendation: Yeah. It's just short enough that the mechanics don't overstay their welcome.

    Я такого ещё не видел, это воистину оригинальная задумка, мне понравилось, хоть моментами я и супер дико горел.

    It is worth a medium score.it is rather not recommended. Extremely frustrating game, especially on pc.
    The story is also short, which is sometimes funny, but nothing special

    [PT-BR] Eu gostei bastante, o jogo em si é bem legal e complexo, a trilha sonora combinou muito bem, o jogo contém muitas falas e cenas engraçadas, os narradores interagem com quem esta jogando achei isso bem divertido, eu recomendo esse jogo porém faltou as legendas em PT-BR e principalmente uma Dublagem.OBS : Joguem no controle de XBOX para facilitar a jogatina, no teclado vão sofrer[PT-BR] Eu gostei bastante, o jogo em si é bem legal e complexo, a trilha sonora combinou muito bem, o jogo contém muitas falas e cenas engraçadas, os narradores interagem com quem esta jogando achei isso bem divertido, eu recomendo esse jogo porém faltou as legendas em PT-BR e principalmente uma Dublagem.OBS : Joguem no controle de XBOX para facilitar a jogatina, no teclado vão sofrer muito !… Expand

    What an experience this was! Truly unique, I must say.

    The black humor was so intriguing, and there were plenty of facepalm moments and frustrations, especially during co-op play. I actually tried it with my girlfriend, and let me tell you, if you decide to play co-op, make sure to change the controls.

    The black humor was so intriguing, and there were plenty of facepalm moments and frustrations, especially during co-op play. I actually tried it with my girlfriend, and let me tell you, if you decide to play co-op, make sure to change the controls. Otherwise, one person controlling a leg and the other controlling the other leg will have you wanting to throw the controller at the TV. It's almost unbelievable that we managed to beat the game like that, but hey, it was an absolute blast!

    Manual Samuel: Anniversary Edition really caught me off guard. It remains, as I mentioned, a one-of-a-kind experience. If there's one thing I wished for more in this game, it would be the length. It felt a bit short, but nevertheless, it was undeniably awesome!

    P.S. A special shout-out to Humble Bundle for the free game! You rock!    … Expand

    For the masochists in our midst there are time attack runs if you want to perfect your time in each of game’s eight or so chapters, but I do genuinely believe that’s a big ask of anyone. Manual Samuel is perfect Twitch streaming fodder then, but there isn’t enough quality or variation there to make me want to see it through to the end, despite developer Perfectly Paranormal’s best efforts to mix things up. Sadly, the execution isn’t as strong as the idea is on paper. It’s sad to see because there’s a lot of potentially good ideas tucked away here and some fantastic artwork, so I’m keen to see what the devs can crack out next.
