Despite being really repetitive gameplay for most of the game, I actually enjoyed this game okay! The story was the best part in my opinion, as it's completely insane how much death and disease is mentioned in this dog game for kids. Had a good and wholesome ending, though. Gameplay was a little fun too but got old super fast due to it being reused too much. Graphics are eh but I will give credit to the dogs for looking like their actual dog breeds. Music was eh too but some tracks are actually better than others and maybe even bangers. Controls we're also iffy for me at times but it's hard to tell if it was my aging Wii freaking out or if it was the game itself.

Overal, 7/10. Would've loved this game as a kid and been OBSESSED if I played it back then. As an adult? You can still find enjoyment in it, but be prepared to do things on repeat. A lot. For all of the game pretty much.

Going to be honest, I used some cheats and a romhack called "Zelda 2 Redux" to play this, because without either I wasn't having fun because this game is TOUGH. Mad props to people who have beaten this without either and ESPECIALLY on the real hardware. Despite all that, I actually enjoyed the game. The music and story were very compelling to me. It's also just so cool to go back to Zelda's roots, because I've only really played the 3D games so far. I think this game is definitely flawed in a lot of ways, but it's still fun if you're up for a challenge (or have ways to make it easier like me). 7/10!
