Step-by-Step Prank Guide

Choose Your Prank Screen

Browse through our collection of broken screens, glitch effects, and system errors. Consider your target's personality:

Tech-savvy friends: Use Blue Screen of Death for maximum realism
Casual users: Broken screen pranks work best
Gamers: Glitch and static effects are perfect
Parents/older relatives: Simple cracked screen is most believable

Set Up Your Device

Proper setup is crucial for a convincing prank:

Brightness: Turn screen brightness to maximum for best effect
Volume: Mute or reduce volume to avoid notification sounds
Close apps: Close all other apps and tabs
Position: Place device in a natural location (table, couch, desk)
Camera ready: Have another device ready to record their reaction

Create a Believable Story

The backstory sells the prank. Try these scenarios:

""I just dropped my phone, can you check if it still works?""
""My laptop froze, can you come look at this error?""
""Something fell on my tablet, I think the screen is broken!""
""The computer was making a weird noise and then this happened...""
""Can you help me? I don't know what I clicked!""

Launch the Prank

Timing and execution are everything:

Wait for your target to be nearby and paying attention
Click the prank screen from the homepage
Read the instructions in the popup modal
Click "Launch Prank" to enter fullscreen mode
React with appropriate shock or concern

Sell the Prank

Your acting makes or breaks the prank:

Look worried: Show genuine concern about the "damage"
Don't smile: Keep a straight face no matter what
Add details: "I just bumped it against the counter..."
Ask for help: "Do you think it can be fixed?"
Touch the screen: Gently tap different areas as if testing

Reveal and Laugh

Don't leave them worried for too long:

Wait for their initial reaction (surprise, shock, advice)
Press ESC key or tap screen to exit fullscreen
Announce "PRANKED!" with a big smile
Show them how you did it
Share the recorded reaction video together

Common Mistakes to Avoid

❌

❌ Smiling Too Soon

Keep a straight face! One smile ruins the whole prank. Practice your concerned expression beforehand.

❌

❌ Leaving It Too Long

Don't let them stress for more than 1-2 minutes. Reveal the prank before they try to "fix" it or call someone.

❌

❌ Poor Device Positioning

Don't hold the device at weird angles. Position it naturally on a surface or hold it normally.

❌

❌ No Backup Story

If they ask "what happened?", have a believable story ready. Don't fumble or make it up on the spot.

❌

❌ Low Screen Brightness

Dim screens look fake. Always max out brightness for the most realistic broken screen effect.

❌

❌ Pranking the Wrong Person

Avoid pranking people who might panic, have heart conditions, or are going through stressful times.
