## What is ZUG?

In ZUG you adopt a puppy and follow every stage of its life, from pup to grown-up dog. It gets hungry, gets dirty, asks for cuddles, gets tired, sleeps and lights up when you show up. The better you care for it, the stronger your friendship grows.

REAL CARE
• Food, baths, grooming, medicine and play — every action changes its mood and health.
• Clean up after it and keep an eye on health, hunger, fun and energy.
• Phone reminders let you know when it needs you.

A LIVELY TOWN TO EXPLORE
• Take your puppy to the plaza, the fountain, the lake, the park, the shop and the library.
• Cars, people and other dogs pass by all the time; day turns into night and the weather changes.
• See other online players' puppies walking around the same neighborhood.

MISSIONS AND ADVENTURES
• Daily, weekly and special missions with rewards.
• Finish the day's missions and open the Daily Adventure chest.
• Walks and discoveries: pick a route, check the weather and come back with treasures.

MAKE IT YOURS
• A shop with treats, items, dog houses and new breeds.
• Gear with stats for your puppy.
• Living Town events, village contests and rankings.

PLAY YOUR WAY
• Start right away as a guest, no sign-up needed. Save your progress with email whenever you like.
• Brazil, Global and Japan servers.
• In English, Portuguese and Japanese.

ZUG is free to play. Take good care of your puppy — it counts on you every day.
