The gameplay is characterized by a limited but well-executed set of mechanics that require players to utilize the unique abilities of a cat and dog to solve puzzles and progress through levels. While the introduction of new mechanics every few levels adds some variety, many players feel that the puzzles lack innovation and can become repetitive. Overall, the co-op experience is enjoyable, complemented by appealing visuals and sound, but some find the gameplay ultimately underwhelming.

- “It is a lot of fun to learn the different mechanics of the game, and how you can use the abilities of each pet to complete the puzzles.”
