Dogz Fashion: GBA

“Fashion – Dogz,” also known in the US as “Petz: Dogz Fashion,” is a delightful game for the Gameboy Advance that allows players to care for and accessorize their virtual puppy. This game offers a chance to choose from eight different dog breeds, each requiring attention, food, and training in various commands.

The core of the game revolves around daily care for your puppy, but uniquely, there is no set ‘time’ in the game; days progress based on player actions, ending either when the player chooses or when the puppy becomes too tired to continue. This flexibility allows players to manage their time according to their puppy’s needs and their own preferences.

Competitions are a significant aspect of the game, focusing not only on fashion—where players can dress their puppies in a variety of accessories like hats, glasses, shoes, and more to impress judges—but also on showcasing the tricks learned and the puppy’s intelligence and affection levels.

Additionally, the game includes an array of minigames such as ping pong, basketball, races, and tug-o-war. Winning these competitions can unlock even more minigames. However, engaging in these activities consumes the puppy’s Vigor, or energy level, impacting its ability to train and perform other activities throughout the day.

Overall, “Fashion – Dogz” provides a rich and interactive experience, combining pet care with fashion and competitive elements, making it a comprehensive and engaging game for dog lovers and gamers alike.
