PHOGS! Reviews

I guess it is fun if you are 8 years old and you don't mind bugs all over the place. Controls are the pinnacle of top tier skill 1 trigger for bark/jumps, 1 to wobble/stretch/give the engine a seizure qnd a whopping 4 emote buttons. Special thanks to the music + constant barking (with the odd sound bug in which it seems the dog is barking backward like a possessed entity) for killing my last bit of sanity.

Rowed a boat for 20 fucking minutes with my bitch wife doing while she was doing what she does best, you guessed it, bitching in my ear the entire time. Would play it again!

It was fun until we had to paddle for 10 minutes (on ps5 controllers). We basically rage quited after this.

a phog is a worthy successor to a dog as mans best friend there is a button to bark and I press it constantly

Cute idea and a lot of content. Definitely a great co-op game for everyone. I do get this weird phantom limb feeling from the player controls not aligning with what my brain thinks is suppose to happen. Game is way better than Chained Together.

This was a great game! It felt like any time I wanted something fun to work, it was able to work! And just generally, was a lot of fun to play through and well thought out! Definitely would recommend! Good long gameplay time too! I think we played for 12~hrs! It felt like the right time for the game to end. All around a ton of fun and really cute!

This game is SUPER fun to play with two people, and is great for practicing teamwork. It's so fun to find the extra dog bones hidden in the levels, and the hats you can equip are adorable!

There are some bugs that are mildly annoying, but nothing that stopped me from playing. Usually a quick restart of the game and we'd be good. The checkpoints are fairly forgiving, so you don't lose too much progress if you need to re-launch the game to fix something. The puzzles are fairly simple but they keep your interest. There is some dexterity needed for some of the challenges. All in all the gameplay is enjoyable and it's accompanied by a very relaxing general tone and adorable word design. ARF! ARF! ARF!

I recommend the game but I feel it's because of circumstances that other players might not have. I played through with a second person. It was much more fun playing only one of the two dog heads, and I feel that was the intended experience. The few times I had to take control of both dogs were very frustrating and not as intuitive as you would think. It is not a one-player game. The game was quite buggy, sometimes needing a re-spawn to fix. Though this is part of the charm of the game to watch the dogs get caught in walls and stretch impossibly between giant gears, the $25 price tag can give off "unfinished" to most players. We purchased the game on sale for 80% off. So for a $5 game, it was an adorable romp with many simple levels and puzzles that are well thought out and creative to the changing mechanics. With the bugs and 10-ish hours of gameplay, we would have been disappointed if we had spent $25. Buy this if it's on sale and you have a friend.

I don't know what the developers did to this game, but me and my friend played this for 40 minutes and got so sleepy, we had to quit to not fall asleep in front of our computers. I don't know if there is some sort of subconscious psychological warfare hidden behind this innocent looking game, but in the 20 years of playing videogames, no game has ever made me this sleepy this fast. I recommend this game highly if you have insomnia.
