The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some praising its simplicity and suitability for younger audiences, while others criticize it for being overly simplistic and unoriginal compared to previous titles in the series. Despite some enjoyable mini-games and good music, many players feel that the mechanics lack depth and innovation, leading to a boring experience. Overall, the gameplay is seen as a missed opportunity to build on the franchise's potential.
“The music and gameplay are really good, and the mini-games can truly test your skills with your favorite pups from the TV show, as well as the newcomer Liberty.”
“I give this game an 8/10 for outstanding gameplay, easy controls, and great music.”
“It is outrageous to release such an untested game, with such simple (and boring) mechanics, and still did not test it enough.”
“It's like they took the very first game, added some mechanics from the Mighty Pups game, and then literally called it a day.”
“If you've played the first (On a Roll) or second (Mighty Pups) games in the series, you'll be surprised that they managed to make the gameplay even worse.”

The story presents a unique twist on the movie, featuring Mayor Humdinger's scheme to steal city parts for his machine, prompting the pups to restore order. However, players express a desire for more exploration outside of missions and additional voice acting for characters beyond Ryder.
“The story is decent and takes a different approach from the movie, with Mayor Humdinger secretly taking parts from the city for his machine, and the pups have to come and clean up the mess the mayor left behind.”
“I wish this game allowed me to explore the city outside of missions and had more voice acting for characters besides Ryder.”
