Flock of Dogs

Flock of Dogs

Flock of Dogs is a top-down, twin-stick, crew game. Most of the time, one player pilots the whale and everyone else rides flying dogs to battle and quest. Players can land on the whale and relaunch when ready. The journey leads to the Flying Festival through procedurally-generated, floating biomes with a mix of creatures, characters, and quests.

Together with your brother and sister Dogriders, mount up on flying dogs. Name them. Teach them tricks. Then put on a fancy hat, grab your umbrella, and soar through the air. Make sure to tend to your flock as dogs can get hungry, thirsty, sick, and injured.

A friendly skywhale acts kinda like your living airship. It will provide plenty of inventory space in its big belly and nests for your flying dogs. You can also strap different gear onto the whale, such as the water hose, vacuum turret, or just extra shelves.

Every copy of Flock of Dogs comes with one Friend Slot. It’s not exactly 2-for-1, but in some ways, it’s better. A Friend Slot allows you to invite one friend who doesn’t own the game to join you online. This utilizes the native network code. You can invite any friend, and each time, it can be a different friend. Additional Friend Slots will be available for purchase.

Flock of Dogs is inspired by storybooks, cartoons, and suburban parks. It features hand-drawn characters and painted environments. It is filled with color and quirkiness and danger. Brave adventures can seek out dark caves filled with monsters, while those wanting a leisurely float to the Flying Festival are also accomodated. Wherever, however, and with whomever you play Fock of Dogs, It’s a magical flight.

Excellent game of its own right but as far as games you can play cooperatively with a small child I think this might be, like, the best I’ve ever played. Was a little hesitant to pick this up at full release price but my daughter has been harping on me since we played the demo and I am happy with the decision. I have a 3 and 5 year old. Phogs’s fun and bright art style gets them excited enough to talk about throughout the day, with puzzles and gameplay that challenges without frustrating. It’s the nature of cooperative play which takes Phogs over the top for me. You can use a two controller scheme for couch-cooperative teamwork or a scheme where each controls both phogs, to help guide younger players. Either way you can help steer each other in the right direction while both are totally playing the game. Everything about it is executed well; controls, art, sound, music, gameplay. The devs definitely had a strong vision, with the talent and resources to execute it.

The Good:

This is a very fun game to play with another person in co-op.

There’s a variety of worlds and levels and for me and a friend, one complete playthrough took us about 9 hours.

The puzzles are fun and do not feel like they’re too challenging, nor does it feel like the objective of the puzzle is hard to understand.

I would not recommend playing solo as controlling both ends of the PHOG is a little tricky.

The Bad:

We ran into quite a bit of bugs while playing over online co-op with items not appearing or not showing that you’re holding an item.

Very low effort, buggy and looks like it was thrown together over a weekend. 34.99 GBP for this is a joke.
