About Act Natural!
Act Natural! is a free online party game played in your browser. Every player is a pigeon in a sunny city plaza, hidden in a flock of about 45 bot pigeons that look exactly the same. The bots walk, peck, coo, rush to grandma's bread and hop away when a kid runs through. Your job is to do the same, so nobody can tell you apart, while you sneak to your three secret snack spots and peck there for points.
At the same time you hunt the other players. Spot a pigeon that runs for no reason, forgets to hop or keeps visiting the same spot, and snatch it. A real player is worth 5 points. Snatch a bot by mistake and you wear a red mark, so everyone knows you are human. The flock thins out as the match goes on, snatches count double in the last 30 seconds, and at the end every player's pigeon is revealed. Make a private plaza and send the link to friends, or press Quick Play and bots fill the empty seats. There is no account and no chat to type: names are picked for you and you talk with emotes.
