The game's story is minimal and primarily serves as a backdrop for gameplay, featuring light lore and simple quests centered around taking pictures of dogs and building a following. While the quests are described as cute and enjoyable, they lack depth and complexity, leading to a quick completion of the main story in about an hour and a half. Overall, players appreciate the game's wholesome and fun atmosphere, but many feel the narrative could have been more engaging.
- “I mostly recommend it because this game has a cute story, cute graphics, interesting concept, and fun gameplay.”
- “Throughout the game you have to complete quests - these can unlock new abilities, upgrades or filters, areas, etc. It's an enjoyable experience through-and-through with no major flaws to it!”
- “There is kinda like a journal thing where different dogs will give you different missions of specific stuff you have to take pictures of.”

- “There are some hints of story here and there, but they don't lead anywhere much.”
