About This Game

Playtime's over. Everybody back to their cubby.

Happy Paws Doggy Daycare has had a very good day and it shows. Four thousand and eighty toy pups lie in heaps on the play rugs, hats askew, and every one of them belongs in a cubby somewhere in the hall.

Pick up a pup. See what it is: a Pirate Corgi, a Rocket Dach, a Chef Pug. Walk it to the right shelves, find its row, set it down. That is the whole game, and it is very hard to stop.

What you do

• Pick up, carry, place. One pup at a time, in first person. A green outline shows where it will stand before you let go.
  
• Decide where each kind lives. Rows start blank. The first pup you put on a row claims it for its kind, so the layout of every shelf is yours.
  
• Fill rows of ten. Each pup on its own row earns a little money, and a full row is a small, satisfying finish.
  
• No timer, no fail state. Nothing chases you and nothing breaks. Put a pup on the wrong row and you simply move it later.

What's in the hall

• 4,080 pups of 408 kinds: corgis, pugs, dachshunds and chihuahuas in six coat colours.
  
• Six themes: Pirates, Farm, Space, Jobs, Halloween and Beach, each with its own outfits, from tricorn hats and jetpacks to pumpkin suits and surfboards.
  
• One very large daycare: 102 cubby units under bunting and skylights, with town-view windows, dog beds and a front desk.
  
• A gentle original soundtrack made for long, quiet sorting sessions.

Play it your way

• Keyboard and mouse or gamepad, including the menus.
  
• The daycare saves itself after every pup. Stop whenever you like and carry on later.
  
• Steam Cloud: start on your PC, continue on your Steam Deck.

Good with a podcast, a cup of tea, or ten minutes that turn into two hours.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

The store page text were written with the help of an AI assistant and reviewed by the developer. The 3D models of the dogs and accessories were first generated with an AI image-to-3D tool and then cleaned up and assembled by the developer. The music was composed by the developer's own script without generative AI. The game does not generate any content with AI while it runs.
