And the constantly scrolling landscape means that playing for more than a few minutes makes me horribly motion sick. If you look up after playing for a while, it looks like the floor and furniture are floating! ### 3/5 — Good dogs, okay game *2017-12-24* I really enjoy playing this game, but I fall into phases playing it because I find it really hard to advance. I’m a graduate student, and I play the game to unwind and relax. However, I find it really hard to advance to new landscapes and dogs without putting hours and hours into the game, which I don’t have. I still only have one landscape and two dogs, and it just gets stale after awhile. It makes me not want to play it for more than a few minutes at a time because it’s more of the same. It would be nice if advancing was a little more attainable, at least at first. ### 3/5 — too slow *2017-12-10* it’s good so far but it feels like the amount of in-game currency needed to do anything is far too high for the difficulty of the game. ### 4/5 — :( *2017-12-04* I love this game so much, but recently it has stopped actually loading and it’s stuck eternally in the Doing Dog Stuff loading page. I can’t play at all :( ### 3/5 — GREAT GAME but... *2017-11-19* I love this game. It’s so cute and so much fun to play. BUT, when I open the app it gets stuck on the loading screen. I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling the app but it’s still an issue. I’m really sad bc I love this game but I can’t play it :-/ getting close to just deleting. ### 2/5 — Fun when I can play *2017-11-14, version 2.01.3* Game loads maybe 3% of the time. It’s worked once since the day after the last update. ### 4/5 — great game, but needs fixing *2017-11-11* i love this game so much, it’s very easy to just sit and play for hours on end. love the dog rates account and i’m glad they made a good game to match! but i’ve notices a couple of bugs here and there, for example when you change ted’s color it shows up as a different color in the doggo choosing menu, and the way miles runs is different then the other characters, a little more off to the side (i’m not sure if this is intentional or not but i’m not a huge fan either way); but otherwise the game is amazing and i’m excites to see what comes as it updates further! 10/10 ### 5/5 — Love dogs in hats and bow ties? This app is for you *2017-11-05* This app just keeps getting better. Latest upgrade has new features like daily challenges, kennels, sticker packs, new hats, and dog treats that make me want to play more. Developer was super responsive when users reported issues, applying fixes to squash the bugs. Now if I could just find the elusive Miles, my pack would be complete. ### 2/5 — Please just fix this app *2017-11-05* I really loved this game for the two hours it worked on my phone before the “doing dog stuff...” glitch came in. Even after the newest update, my game still won’t open past that screen, and I’m very frustrated because this is such a good game but I’m getting close to just deleting it because it simply doesn’t work at all. Please fix it soon!! ## Frequently asked questions about Good Dogs! ### What is Good Dogs!? Good Dogs! is a dog running simulator that offers a realistic experience.
