This game would be a lot better if it didn't rely on precision movement as well as puzzle solving. Too many times I would pull off a whole string of puzzle solutions only to be killed by a monster because the controls made me overshoot or get stuck on a corner. Timing-based movements and thoughtful puzzles do not mix.

Hmm. I freed Darcy but no badge so I reported it. I also sent my condolences to the staff -- broken BOTD is no fun for anyone!

I love the art in this game, so well thought out, and the dog running looks so real and sweet. Thank you, and that goes for all of us, I'm sure. Thumbs up so the dev can see this.

This game is smart as hell. It's almost perfect except for a few flaws. The controls get a bit annoying, especially during the chases, and the audio was great except the screaming girl. 4/5 though

other then level 34 being designed wrong (supposed to outrun him, but all you have to do is get closest last) great game 5/5

Do not, under any circumstances, bark with the dog (Bark) when Darcy is screaming at an enemy to stun them. Only misfortune and inevitable death through a chase is in that.

For those stuck on level 23, you can lure the ghost over to darcy and have her freeze the ghost so you are free in the maze.

Nice game, but the controls are really bad. Why do I have to press a button twice, to change direction and start walking in that direction?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Hmm, an interesting game. The puzzles are fairly simple to solve, only Level 39 took a bit of thinking (not much more than that), the others were obvious. However, the art is endearing and the music is just perfect. Such a dog... it's cute. :D 5/5

Good game, 4/5 only because I found a bug.
If you press space right when you finish a level, the next level gets skipped.
+This so it gets seen! (And can someone tell me where I'm supposed to report bugs?) :O

Bug: If you beat the last level with some levels still unbeaten (that you skipped) it will error and crash the game when you hit 'next level' instead of returning to the level menu

I was alright with this game until Lv. 23. The clunky controls were just a minor grievance up until then, but trying to play a chase level with them was nothing short of infuriating.

it's really cute! a lot easier than most games like this, which may sound like a bad thing but its really refreshing. nice.

I finished some levels in a way it wasn't intended I guess. Some levels can be solved by outrunning enemies instead of doing the intended procedure. Still nice game, a tad too easy I expected a bit more hard puzzles in the ending stages. Still great game

I beat the last level after having skipped one and got an error when I completed 39. Just though I would point it out.

Great game, I can tell a wee bit o' thought went into this one. Everything else has been said many times over so i'm just gonna agree with the last 50 comments and say this, the way the fat kid rolls was a bit off. Sometimes he'd force you to roll all the way other times you could get him to stop which is how i ended up beating one of the later levels where you're supposed to push a block in front of the hole for him. The timing was so tricky getting past the walkers that I just said screw this and rolled half way there and skipped most of the puzzle

If you don't get the badge, take a screenshot (PrtSC and paste it in paint or other photo software, or use a snipping tool) and report the missing badge
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Not a bad game. Puzzle complexity and many characters with unique abilities, but lacking a certain bigger challenge of some kind. 3/5

"Hey Bark, we're going to help you out! Ok, guys, let's all find small spaces to lock ourselves in so we can use each others' help to free ourselves, then once we get the stuff we'll find somewhere else to lock ourselves up!" [All:] "OK!"

theres a skip level glitch. just as you finish a level press space as they start teleporting. you should then be at the next level and the screen that says 'congrats, spress space for next level' will pop up and you can skip it

This is a game that makes you feel sad when its over because its over. And I don't think a level pack would be enough. But its 2015, where's a sequel? Petition the White House if you have to, this needs to happen!

Tip for anyone who is trying to get any badges from this game: You'll have to send a missing badge report (from the achievement tab on the side) and send a screenshot proving you are in a point in the game that you should have the badge. Screenshot methods vary with device, Windows should have the snip tool preinstalled. If you don't know about your device just look it up, it'll be somewhere.

I like that the voices mute after a while. If not I'm afraid I would've gotten traumatized by all that Darcy-style screaming. 0_0

Poor fat kid, he's probably pushed around like the bricks are :'( But WAIT!! He's useful, he can roll and-- wait, he can roll? Hmm, HE'S PO IN DISGUISE!!

levels 23, 27 and 37 are tests of your mouse/keyboard skills, not puzzle solving. It doesn't help that the game tends to hesitate when you switch characters, making these 3 levels impossible for me to solve. (even after watching the walkthrough to verify that I figured out what to do)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
about the whole "2-block" moving thing: the dog is the fastest character in the game, making him harder to control, but fat kid is the slowest, maaking him easier to control (plus the dog's space key makes him bark! :D). all the characters move diagnaly, making them a little hrader to control, but making get-a-ways much easier, plus certain characters (more specificly the nerd and the dog) can fit through certain blocks in the game, allowing special paths to be followed by a character. P.S. use the dogs bark to stop enemies on the spot, making those pesty ladybugs (seriusly, how DID they get so big?) not be charging at an unsuspecting friend in their path. hope this helped remotly. :D

Wow! I've never been moved to review a game before, but this was sheer joy from start to finish. At various times I was cringing, clapping, nodding, and even belly laughing. Nice!

Level 37 bothers me. I've known how to do it since I first looked at it, but it requires such precise timing that it makes it very annoying. If I wanted to play with my reflexes, I could've played a shooter.

Great game! I've used a lot of Kevin MacLoud's music in my videos on Youtube, he does some awesome tracks.
Keep up the good work!

Ok, so I think I foud a bug. When a complete a level, I hit several times the space bar, and the next level is completed too. So basically, I can skip half of the levels...
