Game Overview

Dogs vs Aliens is an action-packed pet-rescue adventure where you develop a pack and battle with bizarre alien enemies. Rather than having to aim or shoot manually at the enemies you'll be able to guide your player-character through the various locations where the animals you've freed from their cages will defend themselves once close enough to the enemy. This creates an enjoyable balance between action, yet allowing you options regarding your movement, what to purchase/upgrade, etc., which location you'd prefer to visit next.

As stated earlier, the game's loop is simply find pets, set them free, kill aliens, collect rewards, and go back to update your team. With a growing pack comes increased ability to free additional animals, battle increasingly stronger aliens and access previously inaccessible portions of the world. The variety of settings include a beach environment, park setting, urban space environments and forest environments.

Progressing is a significant portion of enjoyment. Speed, range of attack for your pack, backpack capacity, overall pack strength and dog strength can be upgraded. Also, pets can be developed into stronger defenders within your pack.
