Simple

In the intro, the game points to the energy when it tells you about the money, and it points to the money when it tells you about the energy.
Other than that it’s a pretty simple game. I wish there was a little more to do in the game, but it’s a nice simple game.

Cute

This game is super cute! Devs, you have your energy and coin pointers swapped in the tutorial however. Thought you might like to know.

Adopt?!?!?!?

Pretty good game. But how do you adopt?!?

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. To Adopt a dog, you have to take care of it first raising its happiness. You have to Feed, Wash, Walk and Play with the dog to make sure its happiness gets to a 100. Then adoption option will appear.

Very cute game but many bugs

I’ll complete achievements and they won’t process. Another bug I see is when I make a dog do something like eat, for example, it’ll show the dog in the shower.

I also believe that game isn’t correctly lined up for the newer IPhones. I have an XR and if I wanted to look at the awareness for adopting and the different organizations, some of the words are cut off.

Despite the small things, the game is very lovely. I love the message behind the app. A suggestion to make it more like the player owns the shelter is to add seasons, like during the winter, there is an increase in people abandoning their animals due to the cold weather and the holidays. Add cats!!!! Add dilemmas the player has to face! Owning a shelter isn’t easy and hard decisions must be made sometimes. Maybe add a donation feature, volunteers, stuff like that. This game has so much potential and I’m excited to see what comes of this game. :)

Satisfying, but can get boring

The positives: the game’s graphics are so cute, I prefer the little pixel pups to hyper-realistic ones. The game is about adopting shelter dogs, which is fantastic. It’s rewarding and satisfying to build up each dog until they are ready to be adopted.

The negatives: it gets boring after a little while. There’s not much to do, other than have a dog do something, wait, and then gain points. That’s pretty much it. The graphics are cute but there’s only a few different dogs that are cycled through. Sometimes you have to wait 12 minutes at a time for something to happen, and I lose interest quickly.

What I suggest: this game has a ton of potential. I think that there should be different dogs... with how simple the pixels are, it would be easy to add in at least 20 more breeds and breed mixes, or at least have different colors for dogs that have the same foundation. Maybe adding the ability to teach dogs tricks. Maybe changing the layout and style of each kennel. Maybe interviewing potential adopters. Maybe “introducing” dogs to each other. Maybe making finding the stray dogs more interactive. Maybe, even, adding a similar cat kennel. There’s SO much that could be done to make the game more interesting.

Love this game!!

I love this game, it’s so much fun, especially because you don’t know what breed you are going to end up with. I just was wondering if you guys were ever considering making a game for cat rescue? I would love that too!! Keep up the good work ❤️

Great game

Very simple but great concept, I hope they add options to expand the number of kennels and some searching and cleaning mini games would awesome

Great game

It is a great game it is a pixel game but that is okay cause you can actually do stuff in the game like if you want to speed up the showering dog. Just click on them and then you can do the washing. Saveing the dogs is easy just pick the area and send your team out. When you get a dog you don’t know the breed till you open the kennel up to see. It is a really great app 😍😍😍😍😍😍🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕

Cute game! Cute cause!

The thing that sticks out to me is the art style first of all. The pixel dogs and gameplay reminds me of older games from the 80s. Simple and nostalgic from my childhood. Wish they would add another map soon! I look forward to getting more dogs adopted!

Suggestions

Awww this game is so cute!! I love all the dogs so much, though it lacks a few things that would make the game much better. First of I think you should be able to train the dogs. Like I think you should be able to train them to sit, Lie down, Give the paw, Play dead, Roll over, Beg, and speak. You swipe the screen a sertain way to make them do the trick. If they get it right they get a dog biscuit if they don’t they don’t get a biscuit. Next I think the dogs should come with personalities.
Say their is a dog name Poptart😂 I’m great at names

Poptart. Play. Feed
Stray Walk. Wash

Personality- Sweet, Gentle

So each dog will have its own personalities. Next thing I think you should add more energy. Instead of 20 what about 30.When there isn’t that much energy I can’t play that long and I’m sure that works with other peeps too. Last thing, I think you should be able to make your own characters including employees. You came customize them and give them names. Ohhhh wait wait wait onnnnnnnne more thing. Sorry. I think when a dog is ready to get adopted a adoption festival kind of thing is held. Sometimes the dog won’t get adopted but it also sometimes will. It should also say the name of the family and how much people are in it.
