Charming hand-drawn art style and upbeat music create a delightful atmosphere.
Simple and relaxing gameplay makes it perfect for casual play and achievement hunters.
The inclusion of upside-down and sideways sections adds a fun challenge to finding the hidden dogs.

The game is very short, typically taking only 10-30 minutes to complete, which may leave players wanting more.
Lack of variety in dog designs and the presence of distracting animals can make the game feel repetitive.
No options to adjust music volume or provide hints can lead to frustration for some players.
