### 3/5 — Got me stressin

*2024-07-25*

It seems like a good game, and i guess if you bought the full game, it wouldn’t be so stressful, but I’m dang, ticks under the skin is wild 😭✋

### 3/5 — Not relaxing

*2024-03-31*

It’s a great concept but not relaxing. Even in relaxed mode, the pimples and hairs (?) Come faster than you can keep up.

### 2/5 — Do not recommend

*2023-12-07*

Personally I don’t like this game, I thought it would be more satisfyingly relaxing but if you don’t pop it on time every single pimple blows up and you lose. Hope you can fix this!

### 4/5 — Enjoy It!

*2023-06-05, version 1.02*

If this game had haptic feedback I’d be absolutely obsessed and recommend it to everyone!

### 3/5 — Can’t purchase game

*2023-04-08, version 1.02*

I love the game so far but I’ve only been able to play the arcade version. I have tried numerous times to purchase the game so I can also use the relaxed version. When I click on “Buy” nothing happens. Please help. Once I am able to purchase the game and am able to try out the relaxed version I will happily change my review to 5 stars.

### 1/5 — Disappointed..

*2023-03-18, version 1.02*

Why did I rate it 1 star? Well why do I even have to explain? The game is horrible. You have to PAY just for the full game, which is just an obvious scam since the game isn’t satisfying at all. Don’t recommend downloading this or buying the full game 😬

### 3/5 — Not bad but not good

*2023-01-23*

I expected the game to have better pimple popping feelings…  In this game if u just push ur fingers towards the pimple it splashes and the sounds are not accurate…  I was expecting the gooey white liquid of a pimple oozing out slowly instead… and the hairs are a little disturbing.

### 5/5 — Overall Amazing

*2022-11-27, version 1.02*

I love this game and I think it is awesome but the relaxing mode dose cost. I think it would be really cool if you added different colors to the pimples and had a tool to pop them.

### 5/5 — Nice

*2022-09-05, version 1.02*

Just downloaded ut it’s actually real good helps with anxiety lol I recommend!

### 3/5 — It just … ends

*2022-06-06, version 1.02*

I don't know why I bought this because I didn't expect realism and I didn't get it. The injury shouldn't just end, heal and vanish. I think you could do better.
