How to play

Six dogs. One garden. Every bone.

A maze chase for up to six dogs at once. Race the pack for bones while the Hoover, the Hose, the Squirrel and the Cat hunt you down. Eat a big bone and every dog gets the zoomies: the hunters turn blue and run. Get caught and you are dizzy for a moment and a little poorer, never out of the round.

  • Steer your dog through the garden; every bone is 10 points.
  • A big bone gives everyone the zoomies: blue hunters are worth 200, 400, 800, then 1600.
  • The dog that eats the last bone gets 1000, and a faster garden follows.
  • Caught by a hunter? You lose a tenth of your score and run again from your kennel.
