[3] 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.

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.

Angry at the orphans being sent to Heaven (due to their age making them too young to sin), Satan throws Death in Hell's jail and the horseman War is forced to take his place.

Sam first has his car fixed and then finally remembers his girlfriend's birthday, buying her three presents to make up for the three birthdays in a row he had forgotten; Death finally lands a kickflip and goes on a date with War; the Four Horsemen get two weeks of paid vacation, while Death and War earn a 55% boost to their salary; Death's actions and kickflip manage to impress Satan; Sam Sr's company gets even more money from the publicity of having 300 orphans come back to life in front of it; and the demons Sam killed return to life and hold no hard feelings towards him.
