A game where you own a dog and you need to take care of it, take it for a walk, feed it, bath it, train it, etc.
it is really nice because you can buy toys (or find it laying around) and other things that are really interesting. You can also take your dog to trials: Obedience, Agility or Disc Competition.
As you become a better trainee, you get points which unlocks other things, new scenarios or new breeds.
All Ndogs are almost the same, the main difference is with which breeds you start the game. There are other little differences in some of the objects you get but they are rather irrelevant.
This game can get highly addictive at some times as you wish to progress in the game, but it also can get a little repetitive. All in all it is still worth playing because while you're addicted to it, it is plain fun and you also get addicted to it from time to time. In addition the graphics are good and it explores the properties of the DS very well, the touch screen and the mic.
Congratulations to Nintendo for being able to make an interesting game out of a simple idea.
