What Is The Human? is a hidden object FMV game. You are viewing a video presentation made by aliens about humans, those curious little fleshbags. The aliens’ intent is to teach you about human behavior to make you a better conquerer in their coming invasion. Your alien host instructs you not to interact with the presentation under any circumstances. Will you defy her instructions and move your cursor around to discover secret knowledge about humans? Are you able to find all the hidden clips? What happens when you do? Learn about the dietary dilemmas, basketball eggs, and feline overlords that characterize the life of a typical human.
