About This Game

Overview

Play as an aging labrador retriever named Hyde. One morning you wake up and realize that your Human, Derek, is gone. 

Get out of the house and explore the desolate yet beautiful fall surroundings of the San Pedro village. Use your dog’s senses, solve problems, and puzzles the doggo way. Search for hidden passages around obstacles and enemies, find long-lost balls that will remind you of precious moments, discover ancient dog lore, and finally pass through the mysterious Tailgate to find and save your Human.

Story

Thousands of years ago ancient Dogs chose to accompany Humans on their journey, establishing a strong spiritual bond, the Kana. Connected through Kana they’ve been through thick and thin together. Through war, misery, desperation, illness, and other mishaps big and small, Dogs have never questioned Humans. Dog after dog, generation after generation, they were loyal to the human race. But as a wise dog said, loyalty is a two-way street. Kana was absorbing an immense amount of hate, doubt, pain, and suffering. The connection became so corrupted and fragile that it finally broke down, tearing the fabric of both Human and Canine worlds apart. 

What exactly caused Kana's final corruption is unknown, but it must have been something truly terrible. Dogs have became feral, returning to their prehistoric forms or even worse. The Rift, however, for reasons no one yet understands, did not affect some of the dogs. One older, grumpy labrador in particular…
