“A delightful oddity.”
Gamasutra

“Beneath all the weirdness, it's a surprisingly emotional game.”
The Verge

“Wonderfully weird, grotesque, cute and wildly funny, and provokes some thought to boot.”
Kaiju Pop

Plug and play is a beautiful contemplative piece. It creates an in depth analysis of the existential truth of the bureaucratic society we live in, and our futile attempts to find comfort in others in this society.
The way it portrays the characters, with plugs for heads, really helps to bring across the existential message of our worth. Since it doesn't depict faces the nameless characters are treated as playthings of an unknown higher power, and the fate of these characters lies in the whims of this power; the player. It creates this nihilistic dread that we are simply just playthings for something more powerful than us. It's artistic message is powerful and profound.

Also you can make them stick the plugs up eachother's bums, which is always fun.

An artistic styled puzzler with crass sexual humor. Obviously this style of game isn't for everyone. But even though it's only 5-10 minutes of gameplay I consider this worth playing.

Upon spending 20 minutes in this game, it has made me question everything I know about life.

Are we all just electrical cords trying to find our sockets?

How many sockets does my plug fit into?

Can one describe love between two people like a plug and socket?

The world may never know.

I really love Indie games. I love surrealism. I love stories and games that make you think.
This, though, was utter ♥♥♥♥. A total ripoff. This was just a very short "short movie" where you had to click to get to the next scene. And the short movie wasn't really any good. So wanting money for it is a total ripoff.

If you like short indie games that make you think then go load "the plan". It's a million times better and for free.

Well I plugged it in and what happened next there is just no words for it. There is nothing to be said in words that can accurately describe the oddly bizarre experience that is plug and play. This game can not be done justice verbally using words for there simply no words to descibe it!
