* ''VideoGame/NobodySavesTheWorld'': The aliens from the crashed UFO insist they are totally humanoid human Earth-dwellers. They also wear [[PaperThinDisguise horrible yet somehow effective disguises]] that consist of coats, hats, glasses, and/or fake facial hair.

* Yrliet of ''VideoGame/Warhammer40000RogueTrader'' poses as a human when you first encounter her simply by calling herself a "mutant" and betting on the fact most people of the Imperium are too ignorant to know what [[SpaceElves Aeldari]] are like. It worked for multiple decades, and she immediately drops the act if you meet her with one of the companions who ''do'' know about her kind.

* Played for laughs, and the core concept of, ''Film/MeetDave''; a group of [[{{Lilliputians}} tiny aliens]] come to Earth looking for a probe meant to [[PlanetLooters drain the ocean of salt for their energy crisis]], disguising their spaceship [[MobileSuitHuman as a human]]. Only problem: the aliens have absolutely no idea how humans act, causing all of humanity to unknowingly become the OnlySaneMan to "Dave's" eccentric flailing.

* ''VideoGame/HumanResourceMachine'' has several cutscenes in the break room. One of which has a TV news anchor report on a machine army surrounding the city. Two cutscenes later, the news anchor has been replaced by a robot in a blonde wig, reporting in a [[RoboSpeak robot voice]]:
--> '''Most Definitely Not a Robot:''' Breaking news! Previous reports of machine army evaluate to false. Everything equals 100% fine. Weather within pleasant tolerance parameters for human skin layer. You are all going to be fine.



* ''VideoGame/{{Stellaris}}'': one possible outcome of opening the L-Cluster is to find what appears to be a member of your species hanging out on an airless, lifeless rock. Naturally, your explorers are confused and try talking to it. It turns out to be a nanomachine construct that is trying very hard to pretend to be your species and failing badly at it.
-->'''Gray''': Oh! Did I get it wrong? Just a moment... let me just... oh, yes. Ahem. Forgive me. It was not my intention to speak of reproduction when our species is clearly not experiencing mating season. Perhaps we can still build rapport by engaging in jovial camaraderie while imbibing a selection of psychoactive narcotics. Oh, to hell with this. It's getting too complicated.

* PlayedForHorror in ''WebVideo/VitaCarnis'' with the [[ChestMonster Mimics]], skinless {{Humanoid Abomination}}s grown from the titular MeatMoss. They exclusively feed on humans, and particularly successful ones that have consumed enough of our flesh will start growing skin and hair to look more human while donning clothes to blend in. Problem is, this does nothing to hide their [[UncannyValley inhuman facial features]] or CreepyLongFingers, but by the time you're close enough to notice it's likely too late.

*** In a later episode, Roger reveals that though the Smith family usually see right through his disguises in general, he has one persona for each family member that that particular person '''cannot''' see through.
