About Straight Face!

Straight Face! is a free browser game you play with your real face. Your webcam cuts your head out like an old photograph and sticks it on a paper puppet, then a goose, a tuba and a slipping wig do their best to make you laugh. The picture stays on your device and nothing is uploaded.

Giggles build up, and the only way to let them out is to smile while nobody is looking. When the watcher turns round you must look dead serious. Eight posts run from the palace gate to a funeral with a prankster ghost, with a Daily Deadpan, an endless ceremony and a two-face duel on one webcam. No camera? Hold a button to grin instead.
