Good

  • The game is quite wholesome and heartwarming.
  • The pixel art looks quite nice.
  • The music is enjoyable and fits the theme.
  • The dog solving the problems of its family, by doing their homework, washing their dishes, and finishing their crossword puzzle are all funny.

Bad

  • While you can bark, it doesn't actually ever do anything.

Ugly

  • The game is far too short and easy which prevents it from really tugging at your heartstrings making it little more than a distraction, but a sweet one still.
