Dogz

released on Apr 20, 2006

A pet simulation game that lets owners name, train and play with a realistic puppy. Players create and control a main character and choose one of 49 different dogs from 18 different breeds. As characters in the game, owners can take their puppies everywhere within the virtual environment, from through the house to around the neighborhood to visit friends. Gamers will earn their puppy-s love and loyalty by remembering to feed and groom it and reward it when it does things correctly. Owners can train the puppy to lie down, shake, fetch and perform many other tricks.

me gustaba más que nintendogs, no me escondo

I got this at a flea market and was excited to play it because it has the exact same cute pixel art dogs as Petz Dogz 2 on the DS, which I loved as a kid. This game made me irrationally mad. It starts by asking you questions about what kind of dog you want, and then it doesn't even matter because you just get given random dogs to pick from. Really all you can do is train the dog, which is not fun. Time passes in the game and you get interrupted to do things like go to school and eat dinner with your parents. You have to watch cutscenes for this stuff.

Imagine being a kid who wants a dog, and you get given this game. Your real parents interrupt you while you play the game, and then you get back to the game and get interrupted by your virtual parents. Doesn't that sound fun? Doesn't that sound like so much fun?

At a time when I really wanted a DS and nintendogs there was. This.
Maybe it was an issue with my cartridge but the progress seemed to reset every now and again. I don't think I missed out on much of an end game from what I did play.

Less of a video game more of a "my parents won't let me have a dog." Nintendogs is still the better option.

Had a Corgi named Snoop.

He was a good boy.

Lacks the soul of a pet game. I feel like I’m managing meters and numbers, not an animal.
