Games Like Please Act Normal

"Please Act Normal" is a live-action comedy visual novel entirely made from real photos with actors.

Navigate the high-stakes, low-reward world of everyday social interaction, from tense dinners with the in-laws to office rivalries. Survive the conversation without making it weird... or embrace chaos and swing it like there's no tomorrow! If this looks like your kind of chaos, wishlist the game on Steam to follow development.

In every single conversation, one option remains constant. This is your persistent intrusive thought made manifest, your "Nuclear Option": a button to abandon the script and "swing it" at any moment.

🍆 Universal Reactivity: The world always notices. Whether you’re at a quiet bar or a formal meeting, triggering the "Secret Weapon" will derail the vibe instantly.

🍆 Social Suicide: It won’t lead to romance. It won’t make you a hero. It will, however, result in slaps on the wrist, awkward silences, and "how-did-we-get-here" comedy.

🍆 Choose Your Timing: Some moments are worse than others. Can you find the single most inappropriate time to play your joker card? Or crack the social code and nail it every time?
