Feed The Head is less of a game and more of a digital interactive sculpture that defies traditional logic. Created by the surrealist masters at Vectorpark, it invites you to interact with a blue, floating head. There are no instructions, no UI, and no clear objectives—just a series of bizarre, hilarious, and often unsettling transformations triggered by your pokes and prods.

Everything about this experience is meticulously crafted, from the smooth, hand-drawn animations to the tactile sound design. It rewards curiosity in the purest way possible. You might pull on the nose and watch it turn into a bird, or feed the mouth and trigger a psychedelic sequence of events. It’s a masterpiece of interactive art that proves mobile devices are a perfect medium for surrealist play.

Dinsun Review

Vectorpark makes weird stuff. Feed the Head is essentially a digital toy. There is no winning, no losing, and no real point. You poke a blue head and it grows hands, or its eyes turn into birds. It’s creative, sure, but as a gamer, I find the lack of structure frustrating.

It’s the kind of thing you show someone for five minutes to prove how 'artistic' mobile apps can be, and then you never open it again. The animations are smooth and the logic is delightfully warped, but it’s over in a flash. If you’re looking for a puzzle or a challenge, look elsewhere. If you want a digital fever dream, this is it.

Feed The Head is a classic surrealist toy adapted for iOS. In this 'living cartoon,' players interact with a blue head that reacts to touches in unexpected ways. There are no levels or scores, only the joy of discovery as the head unfolds and transforms through a series of dream-like sequences. It is an experience designed for the curious, blending art and play into a unique digital toy.
