What is Save the Doge

Put your problem-solving skills to work as you draw lines to shield a lovable dog from various dangers. Each puzzle offers a fresh twist on the classic 'draw a path' formula.

How to Play

Drag your finger or mouse across the screen to draw a line that blocks hazards like bees or spikes. Make sure the doge can safely reach the exit without touching any danger.

Tips for Playing

Start by observing the hazard's movement pattern before drawing anything.
Draw lines that bounce or deflect hazards away rather than fully blocking them.
Use the environment to your advantage, like redirecting bees toward walls.
Keep your strokes short and precise to avoid accidentally trapping the doge.
If a level feels impossible, try a different angle for your line instead of the obvious one.

Does the game have a time limit?

No, there is no countdown timer, so you can take your time to plan your drawing carefully before executing it.
