Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Be prepared to watch your own living pets wither when kids are faced with the fun and games of the Dogz 4 CD-ROM. The real thing can't stand a chance against this litter of ever-frolicsome puppy dogs (and one pig?) that willingly allow themselves to be dressed up in little Santa suits and transported to a northern snow scene to go sledging. (Flesh-and-blood Fido, meanwhile, hasn't received fresh water in days.) Although when are they going to introduce a little reality, such as the sterile vet clinic, the overcrowded dog run, or the rainy 11pm walk?The Gypsy Circus: Flea circus, cannon and one-Dogz band The Arabian Palace: Snake charmer, magic lamp and exotic jewels The Wild West: Tortoise, saloon music and wanted Petz The Winter wonderland: Sled, snowballs and cool Mr. Snowman The South Seas Island: Pirate Dogz, treasure chest and rare beetles
Be prepared to watch your own living pets wither when kids are faced with the fun and games of the Dogz 4 CD-ROM. The real thing can't stand a chance against this litter of ever-frolicsome puppy dogs (and one pig?) that willingly allow themselves to be dressed up in little Santa suits and transported to a northern snow scene to go sledging. (Flesh-and-blood Fido, meanwhile, hasn't received fresh water in days.) Although when are they going to introduce a little reality, such as the sterile vet clinic, the overcrowded dog run, or the rainy 11pm walk?
Ecstatic wish fulfilment comes in many forms on this CD-ROM. Besides the joyful canine playtime, chock-a-block with props and exotic travel opportunities, there are cool, well-conceived moments in each of the scenes, such as the seeds and bulbs in the flower-garden area that sprout instantly when watered. This is the kind of pure pleasure that kids don't tire of quickly.
Rudimentary voice recognition, the big new feature of version 4, succeeds only halfway. It takes time to physically set up, it takes time to learn to speak correctly; then after all that, it just doesn't seem to hold universal appeal. More assuredly fun are the five new play scenes--European circus, Canadian snow scene, Wild West ghost town, Arabian palace and South Seas island--and their requisite costumes and props. True educational opportunities are available with the Play Scene Editor. --Jean Lenihan
