I did like this game somewhat. I liked the story line and graphics. For those of you all bent out of shape for the poor puppies in peril....everyone is fine in the end. I love dogs too, but really, it's just a game, not real puppies. My problem with the game was that there were too many times that using an object to complete a task was more difficult than it needed to be. If I needed a lever to repair something, I shouldn't have to click exactly, and I mean EXACTLY on the correct spot. I kept using objects where I knew they needed to be and kept getting rejected. This was very frustrating! There was just the right amount of HOS and puzzles. None too easy or too difficult. The story line progressed in a natural sequence without a lot of running back and forth. A few times I had to go way back into the game to complete something, but not as much as a lot of games. I wanted it to be one of my favorites, but just can't rate it as such.
There was really no point to this game. A lot of traveling back and forth to various scenes that really had no sensible connection. Way too many repeated HO scenes that asked asked me to find the same things over and over again. Too many HO scenes would ask me to find an object. I would find it, only to find out they had point more than 1 of that type of object. Just not a good game. I really didn't want to finish it, but I had paid for it so I complained all the way to the end. :)
