Herding Dog Reviews

Ok, so let's see what we have here. Game for toddlers, almost unplayable even for old grey gaming wolves like me (since times of C64). Achievements are broken, few of them, so no 100% game for those who love to complete it all. You are some kind of guard dog on...some farm...or who knows what it is. You need to defend and gather animals and to pick up some random objects, just to be collected, for no reason of course. And animals VERY often fell off the game's cliff and than they are in limbo. Restart level please. Also pickup items can be beneath the surface, untakeable. Restart again please (because, you know, I will uninstall and refund, but my 3yr toddler son told me to catch all cows, so...). No minimap, ugly polygon terrain with so many glitching places, sound bugs everywhere, especially when dog bark (music stops for one second). And so on and on. Game is so utter garbage that I cannot believe. This is pre-alpha state of one (very) bad game. And just one more thing, on some levels you must defend cows from one fox. If you watch somewhere else for quite short time, fox will butcher all 3 cows on the level. Yes, FOX will kill 3 cows! Awesome.

Cool game for kids, but not sure if it would be a better mobile game. Nice style and great music/sounds.

This game is Amazing and has loads of potential so I wrote a few Pros and Cons: Pros: Cheap Time Killer Beautiful eZ Controls Cons: Why are you looking here? This game is Amazing.

Pretty dang buggy, dawg. It makes it hard to have some simple, zen doggy fun when the basic game mechanics don't work as they should (i.e., issues keeping count of the number of rabbits I've caught, forcing me to restart the level over and over again). Also having problems with the game crashing. Furthermore, at least one of the pop-up game tips was cut off, leaving the sentence incomplete; I don't know how that one made it past quality control. Bark-bark woof-woof sad puppy is sad. **EDIT: I did return the game, so some or all of these issues may have been fixed.**

Two things : - Farting animals. - Making the dog run in the world map is so relaxing. Worth it.

The controls on this game are a bit clunky and it gets repetative but whatever it was cheap and I have a border collie so obviously I had to get it.

Edited Review: Since the developer fixed the ability to run with a controller I find this game much more enjoyable Original: Any game that involves a dog usually gets my attention. Herding Dog is a colorful game with a cute block-like style. However, the downfall of this game is the controls. I play using an Xbox One controller and the controls are far from responsive. I could not find a button for run which makes it hard to play on the fourth level. The fox/wolf is too fast to keep up with and it got frustrating. Despite that it is a cheap, time killer. I would not recommend this game as of current but if the controls were fixed I would highly recommend this game.

This game is uber cute and has a nice style to it. And it has a doggo. it cute. I enjoyed playing what little I did of the game. When I wrote this review, I had like... 12 minutes on record? Not too sure. The music (some of it) is relaxin' and fits the mood. Not sure if there's a way to keep it at one song? Although the game is really cute and awesome and has a "bark bark" button, I do have some complaints. My complaints are: - The doggo stops every now and then when you're movin' around. No bueno. Fix that. - The intro to the game. Call it a nitpick if you will, but those smilies in the beginning are atrocious and have no business of being there. I believe simple grunts would work fine. And why does the dude just lay on the ground in front of the door? C'mon. - The hud seems kinda... I dunno. Generic? Livin it up a bit. I guess that's about it. The last too don't necessarilly bug me THAT much, but those are my complaints. Definetely look into fixing the movement though. Please. bork bork

I actually really enjoy this game. Very calming (unless you fucking have to stop like 3 foxes from eating your pig men) and gots a soundtrack to kick too. I got half of the achievments the first time I played. Maybe it was glitch. The game gets some updates with fixes and even more music everytime. Buy it if you enjoy dogs or herding. If you dont you should they're great cultures

This game is really nice and my children love it, especially youngest. It's relaxing and fun. While game is in active development new patches are coming from developer regularly, bugs are fixed, new features introduced and that is very good. I've been playing this game on mobile before and it looks really good over there too. Music is fun, but repetitive although in the newest update now you can choose what to listen. I'm sure more and more tracks will be introduced, and may be ability to "randomize" playlist. As the game is in early access, so reviews like mine are not good representation of the current status of the game as more and more bugs are eliminated, reviews are outdated quickly, that why I'd recommend this game but not white about bugs :D
