At first glance, it looks like the harmless classic from childhood, but turns into a total war of nerves after the first round at the latest. With DOG®, it is not the blind luck of a rolling die that rules, but your ruthless calculation with the cards in your hand. You think you have everything under control? In reality, your opponent is probably just waiting to wipe the digital grin off your face with a swap card. Here, you don’t win by chance, but through devious moves and a blind understanding with your partner, because a solitary victory is simply impossible.
You are not just playing for yourself here! The moment you pick up your cards, you become part of a sworn community – or a tragic misunderstanding. Two players always form a team and must push their eight pieces in total into the safe haven together. However, the real madness only begins once you have already parked your own four pieces in the home zone. While in other games you would now relax and reach for a cold drink, with us, your job is only just getting started. From this moment on, you take control of your partner’s pieces and steer them toward a joint triumph using your cards.
One wrong click, one misinterpreted move by your partner, and your painstakingly constructed strategy crumbles like an old biscuit. On top of that, the special cards make life on the board a living hell: a quick swap here, a nasty backwards-four move there, and your supposedly safe piece lands right back at the very beginning. In the end, the team that keeps a cool head and reads the competition’s cards correctly wins.
