The best gag you can do in a video game is to, early on, give the player one highly specific way of interacting with the world that makes sense for the current situation; i.e. a dedicated Kiss button in your romantic scene, a dedicated "tear this up" button for a game that starts with you finding an eviction notice
and then as the game continues on, force them to keep using that same input in all sorts of baffling situations
@junebug isnt there a ps1 game which is about kissing people in like exactly this way
@typhlosion @junebug yes thank you
