### 4/5 — It got boring after a while

*2023-07-22*

The game is great but it’s repetitive. Every pug is so mean to you. But I am satisfied and a would recommend this game. Thank you bye😀

### 5/5 — Lifelong dream fulfilled

*2020-12-14, version 1.2*

I’ve always wanted to be verbally abused by an endless string of pink pugs.

### 2/5 — Boring

*2020-11-01, version 1.2*

Kinda glitch boring

### 5/5 — Cute and sassy pugs

*2020-08-20, version 1.2*

This game is amazing! Dating ❤️.   BUT WITH A PUG?! soo cute! It’s a good game but the pugs can be sassy! It’s hilarious 😂 I recommend you guys play this game ❤️🐶🐶🐶

### 4/5 — Nice 👌

*2020-07-16*

You go on a date with a real cutie 

Sometimes they are sweet and funny 
Sometimes they are jerks 

It is a little repetitive but it is funny and I enjoy playing it and having people check it out without looking at reviews or photos so they just see “Hot date” and talk to a pug

I like the rude pugs and the sweet pugs because you can do a nice date where you want to meet again or see how bad you can screw up a date

### 5/5 — It’s good

*2020-04-10, version 1.2*

It’s brilliant but the only downfall is put in different pugs please

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2019-12-14, version 1.2*

Looked forward to getting the game but it’s a bit buggy, sometimes text options wouldn’t appear and I’d have to reload, or it would skip through text options too quickly. Kind of disappointing :( also would have liked to see what the dogs thought of my responses.

### 1/5 — Not really worth the money

*2022-09-07*

I wanted to look into other apps by the developers of Bird Alone. It has good graphics, but this game seems to have some bugs. I start playing, getting through a few questions before it seems to glitch. The pug is still moving, all the graphics are great, but it doesn’t allow me to move on in the game or choose the next question. I end up having to restart the game for it to work again. 
I was hoping for a fun game to pass time but the questions from the pugs are the same. Not worth the money I paid. The pugs end up giving the same answers, and it is the same pugs after a while. They seem all frustrated and annoyed. Not a very happy game unless you know the correct combination of questions to ask, and it seemed very repetitive after only playing a little while. 
Would love to get my money back, as it doesn’t really allow me to play anyway as it keeps glitching and needing to restart the app.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy

*2020-08-20, version 1.2*

This is so dumb.

### 1/5 — Buggy and pointless

*2020-07-12, version 1.2*

So buggy I think I need a refund lol...

### 1/5 — Gone

*2019-02-17, version 1.2*

One of the answers contained a swear word. Most people probably don't care, but I do. Deleting now!!!!

### 1/5 — Boring.

*2019-02-14, version 1.2*

It’s pretty bad. It’s just the same pink pug over and over again. No variety, and all of the “different” pugs are jerks. I found it rather boring -- could not hold my attention for more than 5 minutes. Glad I found it for free on AppAdvice and didn’t actually pay two dollars for it. 5 star reviews might be fake...

### 1/5 — Really? It’s a waste of money

*2018-10-07*

I seriously just paid two dollars to play the same round of the game over and over. It had good reviews so I was like “why not?”. The questions are the same questions every time with maybe two variations of how the pug will answer. All the pugs are very stuck up and annoying. Not worth it.

### 1/5 — Honestly not very fun

*2017-02-09, version 1.0*

Literally all of the dates are rude as hell, making playing this game not fun at all for me. The only positive thing about this game is that they're all pugs.

### 2/5 — Cute

*2024-12-09, version 1.2*

Not enough effort. There is no conclusion. Speed date events have an end. Also there is only one pug model. At least make different collars or identifying marks. 
Amusing to use once.
Has a bug where if you submit a question after the bell rings (that was being formed before it rang) it hangs and doesn’t go to the next pug.

### 2/5 — Not worth the cash. Disappointed

*2022-12-14, version 1.2*

I wanted to support the developers of bird alone and based off the ratings and graphics i gave it a go. Remarkably disappointing. It’s the same convo everytime . Had such great potential too

### 2/5 — What???

*2022-12-13, version 1.2*

I don’t get it. I found it really boring. Your other two apps are amazing, more apps like those ones please!

### 5/5 — Dated a pug

*2025-07-16, version 1.2*

The hated me :(

### 5/5 — So random, but I absolutely adore it.

*2024-05-15*

As much as I hate paid games, I have never seen one like this. Bird alone was great, so I already knew this was gonna be amazing. No ads at all, no nothing. Great gameplay so far. And may I say this is hilarious!

### 5/5 — As much as I hate paid apps…

*2023-11-11*

I tried the one app that this developer had for a trial and I kind of loved it, so I bought this game, and it is honestly amazing. Although I wished there were more responses for each question, it is still an amazing game and it is very cute. Both of the games do an absolutely fabulous, superlative, and award-winning job of coming to the topic of notifications and rating their games respectively. I have not met and likely will never meet someone who does a better job than this person with requests for the user.

### 5/5 — All these dogs are jerks and I’m here for it

*2023-10-14, version 1.2*

*2022-08-18, version 1.2*

I’ve never been so judged in everything movement I make, and the jokes.THE JOKES ARE EVERYTHING. Anyway five stars because i’m an immature brat who loves everything.

### 5/5 — WORTH THE MONEY
