ABOUT THE PRODUCT
Wappy dog is a unique single player Simulation game for Nintendo DS. Wappy dog is the next generation of interactive toys, connecting a physical toy dog with a virtual world contained on the game cartridge where young gamers care for and raise their very own interactive puppy to adulthood through an immersive experience communicated through the Nintendo DS (sold separately). Wappydog features include: two game modes, the ability to play mini-games with or against Wappy, loads of tricks and song, customization options and hundreds of possible reactions from Wappy.
Each Wappy dog is a personalized experience enabling players to customize both the virtual and physical versions with different colors and accessories. Players train and care for their Wappy Dog to determine their pet's constantly evolving personality, skills, and happiness, as well as use their game system to communicate with their dog. Wappy will respond virtually to prompts sent in-game with tail-wags and tricks, as well as physically through vocal barks and movement.Toy and Game Together

MY THOUGHTS
My daughter got this for Christmas and absolutely loves it. It has quickly become her favorite game by far. The game is fun and easy enough for her to play for hours. She also loves the interaction with the Wappy Dog too.
Now I love how cute this dog is and it also comes with stickers to personalize it which my daughter loved. She carries it everywhere i will let her. Another great feature of the game is the fact that you do not have to have Wappy Dog with you to play the game - which I love. I mean sometimes we are going somewhere you really just can not take the robot dog to but she can still play her favorite game.
Another great thing about the game is how simple it is for her to play. The mini games are just the right amount of a challenge for her but not so hard that she gets really frustrated.
I recommend getting this game for a younger child since older ones may not stay interested in it for too long. It is great for boys and girls and would make a perfect addition to their game collection. So if they got some spending money or gift cards or you promised them a new game grab up Wappy Dog. They will love it!
The game is available now in stores where games are sold and online at Amazon.com for $ 29.99. Also be sure to grab 3 AA batteries for the puppy dog. So let you kid have that "puppy" they asked for!
