This is one of those games were the demo stops at a certain point and you don't get your full hour. I still had 21 minutes to play.
Anywho, I really injoyed the game and think I'll buy it.
It dosn't, wow, you,but it's a nice game to play on a boring day.
The graphics were good, I didn't have the audio on so I can't tell you about that. There is some dialog but it's short and sweet.
You do need to brush the dust off "Ze little gray cells" a bit for this game but don't worry it's all logical.
Maybe not the best, but it's pretty good.
I recommend this game!

Wow, that hour went by so fast, I was startled when the hour was up. Bought it right then and there. It seemed like all the other hogs but once you get into it, the world goes away, unless your dogs have to go outside. The mini games were a bit different than other hogs, all you need is a bit of logic to figure them out. Of course you can always use the skip option. The hint and skip buttons filled up fast.
I recommend this game!

Isn't there anything new being made? I can't believe this is a new game, it's so arcaic.
After 10 minutes I was so fed up with the simplicty of the game I quit.
The part I hated the most was that I had to wait until the little guy went all the way back to the temple before I could do the next task. It really slows the game down.
Maybe some one will like it, but I don't.
I don't recommend this game.

I read all the reviews and wanted to try it anyway. I'm glad I did. I too think they pulled this game out from the back of the closet. There was a time when this would have been considered a great game. Now it's just a walk down memory lane, for those of us who cut our teeth on these kinds of games.
BTW, you can skip the mini games, wait until the clock(on the right) fills up, then click the stars under the clock, bingo your out. If you want to back out of a hog, just look for the tiny little sparkle at the very bottom of the scene, and double click.
Hope this helps.

I concur with Rebr2009. This is exactly how I feel about the game. There were annoying bits to it, banners staying on too long and you can't click to get rid of them. And it was real slow. I don't use the hints much, I've been playing hogs for a long time, but I noticed that they filled up a little slower than most games. It's not the best game I've ever played, still, it was a nice way to spend the day.
I recommend this game!

I'm not a cat lover...allergies, nuf said. But I really like this game. The things I liked about it were, good story line, nothing to get excited about but I liked the twist at the end. The graphics were good, I could easly find the pieces. I had the music so low I really couldn't hear it. I liked the meow when you use a hint. But I thought it would be better if they had a purring sound when the hint filled up.
the storyline was good
the graphics were good, you could find things easly
the bad things were:
it's too short and at the end it's like they ran out of ideas, because you didn't have to think at all, just react.
A big glaring error was all the back and forth you have to do, And at the end you have to go to from one side of the game to the other multiple times. There is no shortcut, very frustrating.
I recommend this game!

This game is VERY slow. You can skip the cut scenes by clicking on "continue" which will be, on the top or bottem of the screen. This game is a mixed lot, there are parts where you really have to use your brain and other areas where it's so stupid that no one would think to do whats needed. I'm going to finish the last 30 min, but doubt I will buy it.
I don't recommend this game.
