Our take on DOGS.IO

The bounce point arrives when the round’s simple contest for the largest pack stops providing enough variation. Players looking for layered strategy, extended exploration, or a deeper progression system may run out of reasons to continue after the collection-and-stealing loop becomes familiar.

What is DOGS.IO?

Control a dog with a mouse, keyboard, or gamepad across several maps.

Run into unclaimed dogs to recruit them, or approach dogs following another player with a smaller pack to take those followers. Each round goes to the dog leading the largest pack when time ends. Victories award doggy coins, which can be spent on additional dog breeds and colours for customisation. The central loop focuses on collecting followers, competing with other dogs, and building the largest following before the round concludes.

How DOGS.IO plays

01Follower collection
Unclaimed dogs join the player’s pack when the controlled dog runs up to them.
02Follower stealing
Dogs can take followers from opponents whose packs are smaller.
03Multiple control methods
The dog can be controlled with a mouse, keyboard, or gamepad.
04Breed customisation
Winning rounds provides doggy coins for unlocking breeds and colour options.
