Great game!! But...
First off, I really like this game. It’s a little bit slow at first but once you start really playing it it’s super fun. I definitely recommend playing it. But, I have a few problems . The first one is that when you buy the couch, the customers sit for a few seconds and then leave. Even after I upgraded the waiting time a few hundred. I also have a suggestion. Instead of people leaving because there’s only one space to check people in, in the story mode, you can unlock a second space at the desk to check people in. That’s all I have! Thanks so much! I love this game :)
Good game but where do I go now?
I’ve had fun the last few weeks playing this game during down time. My reputation points maxed out and because of it I can’t upgrade the last shave to max limit. I’ve been able to generate billions in funds and was able to max out all upgradable equipment. Now…. Where do I go? Besides the one shave I can’t max out, I’ve maxed everything and have nowhere to go except pile up billions of dollars with nothing to spend it on. This has been one of the better idle tycoon games I’ve played and don’t want to delete it yet but I feel that’s the next step for this game. -IncognitoBorrito
Fun story and gameplay.
This isn’t far from your typical idle game. I enjoy the story and am excited for the next update for more story. I’ve played this one longer than most games of this type. The thing I appreciate most is that ads are not forced on you. So many games like this you are basically forced to watch millions of ads to make any progress, and that makes me delete more games than anything. In this game, however, watching ads can be very helpful but is far from necessary, and I’m hoping the developers keep it that way.
Boring
The game started out fun but as I progressed it got really boring, I am already at 31,000 rep points and still only have 2 barbers, it’s cool to have a story but it drags and nothing more useful than to wait hours or a day to rank up only to find out it was for a wall decoration like come on it’s starting to feel more like something else than a barbershop game, and the couch feature brings in less customers as they sit for 1sec then bounce? What did I spend in game money for!!!???
Great down time game
I really enjoy the game so far I have already maxed out on reputation. And I know that there are future updates to come but man I am excited to see where all the stories are gonna go I do wish that the calling cards for the barbers weren’t 100 diamonds. Over all like the game to play on my free time at work. Keep the updates coming
Well-made game with interesting story, glitches need to be improved
Most of the games from the developer are by far the better than other idle games. This one is my favorite since it has a story to it, making the game less repetitive. However, I am seeing some issues with each task-mission completion. Usually, it’s the barbers going on a strike. The characters seem to freeze each time a task-mission is completed. For example, Barbers do not work and idle away while customers are lining up. I had 16 customers lined up and waiting for over a minute(real-life time). Characters are moving, but they are not working at all. The only way to get out of the “idling” environment is to close the game and restart.
Awesome game
I love idle games. They are so relaxing and a casual game. This game takes an interesting spin on idle games where you don’t have to click/tap non-stop, our screens are grateful to you :) I love the story. I really enjoyed getting to know the barber and some of the community around the barbershop. The pacing was really great. The things to improve: love to see a little customization of player name or something. Would be a little cooler to feel like it’s my barbershop. Your team did a great job allowing customizing the room with furniture and coffee machines! You could also allow the player to choose male or female (perhaps just switch Angelina and mike?) 5 stars absolutely the best game I’ve played in 2021 without deleting!
my favorite mobile game developer
This is one of the best apps i've played yet by this developer. Absolutely love the implementation of a story into a tycoon game. Never played a game like it and i love it. In fact i enjoy all of the tycoon games from this developer. The ingame purchases are averagely priced and provide decent bonuses. Def no complaints and can't wait for even more games from Digital Things
Excellent work
This game has entertained me for hours and is continuing to do so. I have completed the main story and am working on leveling all items to max. I love the story in the game and the combination of unlocking new items as you progress in it. The addition of the coffee bar was excellent and just added plenty more content. It’s also awesome that you can acquire the gems fairly easily without having to buy anything. Most idle games are pay to win but I feel this one has allowed me to play the game and complete everything without me even spending $1 so far. If you are looking for a new idle game to invest some time in, I would highly recommend this one.
Good Game But Has Issues
I like this game as it really is the definition of an idle game. You can play it for a few hours straight or just check it once a day. I especially enjoy the little storylines for each employee and the main story as well. The pricing is pretty well balanced, in my opinion, as it takes some time to get enough money to max stuff out but doesn’t take years to do so. This goes for the reputation bar as well which progresses the storyline. All that said, I have a few issues with this game. Firstly, I’ve completely maxed out everything so I’m stuck here waiting for another update. I got this game maybe a week or two ago, so I’ve managed that pretty quickly though I did buy the income upgrade pack. That said, I still think I could have maxed this out in less than a month without the pack. I still think the pricing is well done, it’s just that the updates need to be released faster and with a lot more progress players can make. Additionally, there are a lot of English errors in the descriptions and dialogues of each character. It’s not unplayable with them, you can still understand the storylines and stuff. It just means you have to read a little more closely or go over something twice to understand it. Kind of kills the vibe and makes the game seem underdeveloped.
The game is good but the story is SLOOOOWW
I love idle games a lot, and this is the first one I've seen with an actual story, and while the plot is fun sometimes, it makes the game drag a bit. The pacing is good, and the designs are smart and nice to look at, and the characters themselves are pretty unique. A note to devs: a larger speed boost button would be good for those two like to use two thumbs to tap (this gal) and maybe a skip story? Or at least auto/skip dialogue. Getting past it seems like a chore sometimes, especially if the app needs to close during a scene.
Story continuation
I read in one of your replies to another review that you were working on an update. I’ve maxed out everything in the barbershop and have billions of dollars saved up. I don’t want to make so much money that I breeze through the next update so I’ve stopped playing until it comes. When do you plan to release the update and will it include the bathroom, kitchen, and coffee shop
Bad customer support
May have given it a 5 star but customer support is awful. It’s been a week of argument and still no resolution. I spent the 100 gems for the stylist but it glitched and wouldn’t give me the stylist but still charged me. Aside from that, the story is paced well and interesting. It doesn’t force you to spend real money to get what you need to progress. It doesn’t take long to get through the story either which is nice. Overall I would say great job for being one of the better idle games. Customer support really rubbed me wrong. May delete this one and others before I get to involved because if they won’t fix something as simple as my problem then I’m concerned about the what if of their other titles. Hope this review helps.
Worst Paced Tycoon Game
Don’t get this game unless you have the patience. I’ve been playing a week and upgrades happen once a day with my schedule. Been playing a week and still the shop looks empty and with 2 chairs. I even paid for no-ads and it’s useless because the benefits you gain from it don’t immediately help and are timed much shorter than other games. The story quests are so easy that when you move to the next story I always have my quests done. So I’m literally sitting there with nothing to work towards besides taking care of 2 customers at a time… I don’t know how this has such a high rating but anyone like to care to explain. I’m all ears. I already put in refund requests in and I know what I am talking about because I really do play most of these tycoon games and pay for no-ads. This game is the worst of them all to progress. So in the end I paid and progress is still broken. I have TV, Box Office, Theme Park, Hotel, Music Fest and Supermarket tycoon games and they all had better pacing than this. Edit: Got my refund yesterday and uninstalled
