Plug and play8/3/2023 ![]() ![]() Buttons, plugs, socket-heads, etc, are stuck in and tugged out, with the pleasing physics making it a tactile experience. Most of it, however, is concerned with the insertion of sticky-out bits into sticky-in bits, which I'm sure must be representative of something. The grossness expands with the realisation that prong-heads fit into bottoms, creating sequences deliberately reminiscent of the revolting Human Centipede films, albeit rendered near-harmless in the form of outline doodle characters. Where in the film one of the socket-headed figures sucks in the two prongs that form his "head", and then proceeds to agonisingly poo them out, here you simply hold the cursor down on him to induce the rectal squeezing. But taking part makes such a difference, especially when it comes to the strangest moments. ![]() ![]() Your involvement in the game is somewhat limited, with the inevitability of ensuing scenes set despite the direction or order in which you might plug or throw things. And this act of insertion, coupling and uncoupling, is very much part of the film/game's innuendo. Rather wonderfully, the film's original animation becomes interactive, with physics applied to the wires and plugs, meaning you can pick them up, wave them around, and insert them into one another. Your role is to plug in, unplug, rearrange, or simply interact with the animated wires or characters on screen. Reworked into a game by Swiss developer, Mario von Rickenbach, the result is something utterly original, and inevitably extremely polarising. Here's wot I think:īased on a short film by Michael Frei, also called Plug & Play, this gameified version uses the same animation, depicting plugs, sockets, and plug/socket humanoids, but lets you interact on a very peculiar level. This animation-turned-game is a twenty minute vignette of glorious strangeness. ![]() I love it for being genuinely surreal (as in, genuinely, not "ooh, fish and jam"), I love it for being deeply scatological, and I love it for making me laugh.
