"Sheep a sheep" Are you addicted?
Hello everyone, I'm Tina, a person who is very curious about "sheep and sheep".
I wondered, what's so fun about this game?
Game practitioners said that this game is basically not innovative, it is powerful to understand the user's psychology.
To talk about this I am not sleepy, today I will analyze the sheep from the perspective of psychology why everyone can not stop.
First, shock! I am a sheep and a sheep
Where did you hear about a sheep?
In the group, in the circle of friends, in the forum, on the hot search...
Either way, it will give you a psychological hint: this game, everyone is playing.
This creates the herd effect.
It is to say that everyone has a herd mentality,
To put it simply, it is to follow the trend, to follow the trend, and what others do, I do.
For example, in the downtown area, there is a person who looks up, and everyone will look up.
But in fact, except for the first person, everyone didn't know why they should look up, just simply make a scene.
Isn't that also true of a sheep?
Seeing that everyone is playing, even if they don't usually play games, they all want to click on a lively scene.
So we become sheep in the flock.
From this point of view, the sheep is a sheep, and the name is really amazing.
2. The game is ten minutes, and the human world is 4 hours
At 8 p.m., the sheep opened and prepared a sheep to challenge for ten minutes, and it turned out that it was already eleven o'clock when he quit the game.
Is this talking about you?
This feeling is known in psychology as "flow",
It is a state of mind that people manifest when they focus on a certain behavior.
In a state of flow, the individual's mental energy will be completely invested in a certain activity,
For gamers, it's an "automatic, effortless, but highly focused state of feeling."
The activities that generally cause flow to occur have several characteristics:
The above characteristics do not need to be all present, and several can cause flow to occur.
Let's look at the sheep with a sheep -
1. The activities we tend to engage in
——Sheep a sheep, entertainment games, it is not easy to relax and relax after work to treat psychological internal friction;
2. Have a clear goal
—— But it is too clear, that is, customs clearance;
3. Get feedback immediately
—— Each point determines the life and death of this game, and the feedback is quite in place;
4. Be able to grasp what is done
- The operation is not difficult;
5. It is within its capabilities and has certain challenges
——The first close can be passed, and from the second level, it is quite challenging.
It is precisely because of these characteristics that the sheep makes us forget time.
A small game that easily brings us into a state of flow, it feels as if he has pinched us.
But in fact, if we can bring the flow state into study and work, it will be of great help to us improve our efficiency.
Here's a video of how to get into flow that I did, hoping to help you find your state.

Third, I can't stop and take another one
In addition to forgetting the time, the more terrifying thing about a sheep is that people can't stop.
If you fail, you want to play another round.
Many friends said that the reason why he has not given up is that he feels that he will be able to pass the customs next time.
After all, after playing so many, it should be the wheel' turn, right?
There is a psychological illusion called the "gambler's fallacy", which is that some people think that the results of a series of events all imply self-correlation to some extent, but this is actually illogical.
For example, buying a lottery ticket, the probability of winning the jackpot is one in ten million, although you have not won the lottery thousands of times, but the probability of winning the next jackpot will not increase because you have failed many times, it is still one in ten million.
The probability of a sheep passing a sheep is the same, he will not become easy because you have been through the level all night,
Even if you play 10,000 times, the probability of passing the level is the same, so don't be fooled by the gambler in your heart!
Four. You exist deep in my mind
And a lot of people are already lying in bed with their eyes closed.
As a result, there seemed to be a voice in his head, and he kept saying to him, "A sheep is a sheep," "A sheep is a sheep."
It doesn't feel good.
This is actually a memory effect known as the Zeignick effect.
The Zeignick memory effect is that people are more impressed by what has not yet been dealt with than what has been done.
For example, if you are fascinated by a novel, even if you have an important meeting tomorrow morning, you will stay up late to read it, and even the first thing you wake up the next day is to continue reading.
This is actually because people are born with a drive to do things from beginning to end.
If you don't believe it, you can draw a circle and leave a small gap at the end, and then you will look at it again and you will definitely be inclined to complete the circle.
It is precisely because of this effect that the sheep who have never passed the customs will always exist in our deep minds.
epilogue
Having said all this, should a sheep play?
Of course, it is no problem to play casually, but if it affects sleep and work,
Even spending money to buy a guide for customs clearance is really not worth the loss.
I'm Tina and we'll see you next time!
