About This Game

PHOGS! is a family-friendly, physics-based puzzle-platformer where you control a two-headed dog (Red and Blue) solo or in local/online co-op to solve whimsical, themed puzzles across Food, Sleep and Play worlds. Tone is light, playful, and non-violent with simple collectible cosmetics unlocked by in-game exploration rather than purchases. citeturn1search0turn1search3
