Community Insight:
This is a very fun game and we play it alot on our down time. But for some reason our shop has two shampoo bowls, but only use one which makes the barbers wait behind each other to use it why is that? We believe its a bug and it needs to be corrected.
We love this game will there be an update added to finish out the building, and storyline.
This game is one of the best tycoon games Ive ever played and while there is a lack of content in our opinion there is a good storyline and we love this game.
Too bad we finished everything need more to do.
Muchas gracias por dedicar su tiempo en crear este juego.
As a hairdresser ourselves we find this game very fun and relaxing to play! We love the idle game style and the way the storyline progresses. Definitely would recommend :).
We love it. Ive played it about 3hrs and we really enjoy the interface, graphics, customization, and upgrading. Also has fun dialogue and story element.
Will there be any. Updates soon.
This game is great its super fun and we hope it gets more updates and content however, our game has glitched and says we've maxed out our reputation level and can no longer progress in the story but there is still a ton of stuff we should be able to do like finish the bathroom, finish building the chairs in the coffee side of the shop, and more characters we have yet to unlock. If this could be looked into and fixed it would be 5 stars.
Ive been waiting for a new update for a long time and we think your game needs to be updated and not get and update once every year add more to the game plot so people will keep playing.
Love games by this developer. This one is a little slow. We wish there was more to buy and upgrade between each story segment.
We absolutely love this game and quickly found ourselves playing anytime we had free time. We have maxed out the game months ago and have been eagerly waiting for an update to continue the storyline as the game seems like it theres more to it. We would absolutely love to continue this game and would really appreciate an update.
The game is fun but we maxed it put already. Yall need to add more story line to continue the game.
It was a good it didnt take us long to upgrade to the max but its been a while when will yall add more content.
Love the game. But are yall ever going to finish.
Its been 10 months since the last update and when you reach max reputation points you literally cant progress at all.
It definitely felt a little slow to start, bit progression picks up once youre introduced to how it works. Its very similar to other idle tycoon games but has a surprisingly refreshing storyline for each character and checking back daily for plot updates feels rewarding as we can usually finish out an upgrade or two. The mission goals are easy enough to accomplish and keep the growth pretty steady. We really dig the music too. Keep up the good work.
Its not letting us play we hear the music but cant play the game.
Is there gonna be an update for more missions.
Best game we ever played on our iPhone.
We love this game but when the hand arrow shows up and Im clicking on where it tells us to we get stuck every time. And we cant play it. We hope this gets fixed soon cause we wanna finish the story in the game.
Amazing Storylines with Authentic graphics! Yayyyy.
Hello developers we love the storyline and gameplay its very impressive and would love to see some improvements on adding on to barbershop would be lovely to see and we are a big fan of the games you created.
It has been 11 months since the last update. ELEVEN MONTHS!!! Its just a little aggravating that its been so long, just give an update.
We made it to where we cant upgrade anything because we reached MAX on the purple icon. Its a little upsetting because it didnt take long and we havent seen it have an update in a LONG time. Last one was about 8 months ago, and am hoping for it to continue because we really enjoy the simplicity and interesting characters throughout the game. Im gonna keep the game for now and wait for the next update, regardless.
Maxed everything out pretty fast. The story in this game is unlike any other idle tycoon, it's characters have families, personalities, and stories of their own that separate them from other 1 dimensional blobs. Queer friendly, too! The main character can be in a same sex relationship if you want. The barbershop and bar are very customizable. Our only issue is that the game seems to be sitting on updates that are yet to come. We see the dev promising updates soon, but it appears that's looking less and less likely. Still worth playing and supporting the devs tho.
We love this game. The UI, the story, the characters, the character design, the overall art style. Everything! We just really want more story.
We loved this game and the story! One of the only idle games we have kept. Ive spent money and would love more content soon! Its been almost a year and nothing.
Is there ever going to be new chapters added.
Please make an update! This is our favorite game & we have everything maxed out & wanna keep playing so bad.
Great game we love playing it. When will there be another up date. Game wont go any further we e completed everything and it said when the game up dates Ill get new content. That was a month ago lol. Cant wait to see what the updates will bring. When will that be.
Please add more content we 100% everything in this game and this is the only idle game we enjoy playing please Im on our knees add more content.
We love this game, its the best that we have found on the play store. Awesome all around but we need more updates to keep the game alive.
We love this game. We cannot wait for it to updated though because we have not been able to level up anymore, everything is upgraded. We hope it gets updated soon.
Unfortunately Ive gone as far as we can go. We have everything thing maxed out, which makes us sad. We mean why stop at just a toilet in the bathroom, and what about the other room beside the bathroom. We have all the people too. But one person doesnt get to play because there isnt a chair for them. The game was super fun before we came to its end though.
Thumbs Up guys great game. Im a barber ourselves and this is a great game we enjoy, but Ive waiting months for an Update if there is we hope is large enough to everyone satisfied for a while. Thanks.
Absolutely love this game but we are capped stars. We need an update soon!!! Please.
Love the game Ive completed everything so please update.
We loveee playing this game , mainly because of the story line , that is very interesting and dope to have while playing , we cant wait for the update ! When is the update ? Soon Ill finish the characters and mike the owner well we finished his so far already, if we can give this game some type of Criticism , Ill say make it a little bit easier to open other characters stories from working instead of mainly gems.
A good gane with sn testing story. No forced ads and when there is sn ad to be watched its for doubling your idle money (if you choose to) any random boosts offerd. Now that we gave maxed rep we just have to wait for the next update chapter.
Love the game just hit max rep we need more stuff to unlock lol.
We maxed everything out within a few days just waiting on them to increase reputation cap. Still have a beard to get to 3 stars but the Rep bar says MAX.
This is one of the best idle games Ive ever played. Its kept us genuinely engaged and Ive played for a few months now! We love the design and the storyline and we absolutely adore getting to know the characters and upgrading the shop. Its wonderful! We completed the storyline several weeks back and we still check in at least once a day to collect the money and upgrade things. Ive nearly finished upgrading the entire shop but once Ive done that we cant really see the point in playing more until more chapters are added. So Im anxiously awaiting a new update!! Keep up the fantastic work! This is such a fun game.
When is the new update happening? Ive been stuck at the end of the game for a minute now we dont wanna uninstall it cause we like it but now its just taking up space.
We love this game so much its so fun our only issue is that Ive completed everything, upgraded everything, bought every item and now Ive got nothing to do we cant wait for an update.
We have played a fair share of idle games. Whomever made this one is very smart kudos to them. We usually never write reviews but we had to for this one.
We love this game like this the best one yall made so far.
Im updating this review because we fixed the ad problem lol. Turns out it wasnt the latest update that kept the ad rewards from working, instead it was simply a section of the game with this bug. (The storyline before they buy the toilet is where the ads bug out). A lot of people complain that affording better upgrades takes too long, but we love the challenge! The dialogue is awkward and not very interesting, but it does make the game. 5/5 stars.
The game is fun. We maxed out everything in our barbershop, just waiting on an update so we can move forward in the game.
We would give 5 stars but there hasnt been a new update with new missions in about 1-2 years. WHEN WILL THERE BE AN UPDATE WITH MORE OF THE STORY.
