Pluck It: hairs and emotions

I’m not a very extroverted person. I’m very introverted, and prefer to keep myself and my emotions to me and only me. Some days, it’s easy and fine to deal with, but others it’s not. Today, the day I downloaded this game, was one of the latter days. For a moment, for a wonderful, inspiring moment, I was able to forget about the troubles of the day, and the troubles of life itself. This game brought a smile upon my face, and a heartwarming message I needed to hear. It taught me, through a fun and guiding experience, the importance of my emotions, and the importance of cherishing them. I can say for certain this game provided me with a stepping stone towards helping me improve with showing my emotions, and for that, I can’t thank this game, and it’s developers teams enough. Thank you all, and you all have my gratitude for making such an incredible and heartwarming game. <3

This is by far one of the most amazing apps that I have come across. A unique, brilliant and beautiful concept. I definitely think that everyone should try this app. However, there is lots of room for improvement. The graphics could use a lot of work. They aren’t smooth and clean as shown in the pictures in the app store. The text looks very thick and uneven. I also think that it would be nice to incorporate more unique ways of the plucking. Calming down the angry fire hair and shaking the device were my favorites, I wish there were more like those. Much of this app was plucking hairs the same way and then having a little animation after, which I feel doesn’t really do much in terms of really connecting the consumer with experiencing the emotion. The “emotion” wasn’t so much in the experience of plucking the hair, but rather the animation with it. The obsessive emotion where the hair couldn’t be plucked was one of the few levels that really made me experience an emotion and value it. Wish more levels were like that as well. I am being very nitpicky here, if there are other consumers like me who are very choosy with their apps. Overall, this app was amazing and I’m glad to have played it.

Couldn’t sleep bc I’ve been dealing with a lot of heavy stuff in my life so I was trying to find a way to distract myself enough to fall asleep. This game actually did the opposite for me lol, ended up making me furious bc it’s hard to pluck the darn cord so that alone was irritating. I get that in some levels, you’re supposed to deal with the fact you can’t easily pluck it but I felt like it would have been more satisfying to pluck it quicker and not in a straight line down all the time. Aside from the game mechanics, I was pretty satisfied. It’s meant to be simple, sentimental, and should be a metaphor for you and your emotions. There were stages that actually made me smile and one in particular (Anger) that was beautifully and simply made, I couldn’t deal. I for one deal with anger issues all the time, so it struck a chord with me. It’s not a game that’ll entertain you or anything like that. But more of a game that’ll remind you that yes, we’re all human, we let our emotions get the best of us. But we shouldn’t drown in them, rather check in on them and reason with them. Good start to an execution, but I felt that it could also have done better. Beautiful game.

This is most likely the weirdest game I’ve ever played-and maybe the strangest one I’ll ever play. I’m giving it a 4 star only because the grip on the hair’s was a little difficult and it got a little frustrating, just a lil. While part of me thinks the developers were high when they made this, I think the message behind it is a good lesson. Some people see a game about plucking hairs, they see bad grammar (maybe that was intentional, I don’t know) and they see it as a game to pass time; I saw through that, and it looks like a lot of other people did as well. A great message; I only wish the graphics were a bit better, but you know what, this game had no annoying ads and I appreciate the fact that you guys were considerate and took time to make this game for others to learn something; so, at the end of the day, this game deserves 5 star. Thank you for creating it 👍🏻 P.S. I loved the voice.

I've never really came across an app good enough to write a review. I downloaded this app just for the stimulation and to get my mind off of things and it honestly surprised me in the best way possible. At first I was confused, but with guidance and the voice added in the background it opened my eyes to something different and new to me. I didn't really expect to get that emotional over a game but the different categories of good and bad feelings definitely moved me. It gave me a different view of things and definitely calmed me, and gave me something to put other thoughts aside. The game was relatively short but it was nice and orderly with no ads. It kept you in a mood and it provided a valuable message and lesson. Personally, dealing with very expressive emotions and severe anxiety, I could relate to many of the feelings and I know others could to. Very good job. It brought me to tears.
