GB Studio製の掌篇イヌアクションアドベンチャー。 ダックスフントのペッパーが「かしこイヌ(dog of wisdom: god of wisdom 知恵の神のもじり)」の導きにしたがって単葉機に乗っておいしいフルーツを集めていく。 ゲームプレイとしては上下左右に飛び回りながらリンゴやバナナやニンジンなどを獲得すると加点、チョコやニンニクなどイヌとって悪い食べ物を取ってしまうと減点、という仕組みで、レベル毎に合計点が30点を超えると次のレベルに行けるようになる。全4レベル。 イヌにとって良い食べ物と悪い食べ物を遊びながら学べる教育的なゲームだ(ブドウがイヌの身体に悪いのは知らなかった。少量でも致命的な腎不全を起こすそうなので飼っているひとは注意)。 はっきりいってゲームとしては単調すぎてあんまりおもしろくないし、操作性の悪さやボリューム面を踏まえても定価500円の価値はないとおもう……のだが、レベルごとに挟まるdog of wisdomとのとぼけた会話や力の入ったピクセルアートなどはまあほんとうにイヌが好きなひとが作ったんだな、とおもわされてあんまり嫌いにはなれない。 まあ最終面のルーレットはさすがにイラついたけれど。 規模感のわりにはストアのトレイラーはやたら凝っていてなんなんだろうな、とおもっていたら、作者のJoe Granは長らくYoutubeでパロディアニメクリエイターとして活動しているひとで、本作もその動画シリーズのゲーム化らしい。チャンネル登録者数は150万以上を数えており、『Anomaly Agent』に代表される近年の人気Youtuberがゲームに進出する流れのひとつ……なのかともおもったけれど、チャンネルを眺めるかぎり本人にはそこまでカリスマ性というかカルト性もないようで、まあ趣味の作品っぽい。 そうした背景を含めた良い意味でのゆるさはある。
I would recommended to buy this if you want to support Joe as an artist and creator! This game is very short and is more like a little fun project. So don't expect much more than about 14-ish minutes of gameplay. It's cool how it comes with a rom so you can play it on actual hardware or emulation. I personally played it on my 3DS.

we get da wisdom and bring it back. get da game now thank you joe
positives: very accurate to old games, even having sprites cutting off when too many are on screen. characters are from dog of wisdom, i guess semi-unique bonus rounds an awesome trailer negatives: literally only 17 minutes long to fully complete, which is quite short for a game thats usually 4 dollars gameplay is like flappy bird but without any mechanics that make you lose, besides bad foods making you lose points (which you can get back by just going in and out of rooms to farm foods) no replayability, score isnt shown at the end. much lower quality compared to trailer honestly, if this game just had a lot more content in it and some mechanics that made you actually lose instead of just making it take longer, it would be one of my favorite games. but right now, it kind of feels like the game was made so that the trailer had a reason to exist, which is a shame since i love retro games and this is really accurate in terms of visuals.
this game is the reason why i want to get a 5080 gaming rig. my handheld was struggling with the detailed graphics, so i had some trouble with the platforming! great job Joe, cheers to a great release!

I am enwisdomed
This game is really great for short fun, I played it entirely on my Anbernic RG Rotate. (The ROM files are available, so that's great) I also actually gained wisdom about food that dogs cannot eat! Yay! .... But uh, is it intentional that present in the game files, is the ENTIRE source code of the Godot Engine wrapper and some probably important files from GBStudio (I'm not sure, I've never used this engine.) Either way, it's weirdly nice for it to be so open. :) EDIT: So I just made Linux and MacOS build of the games, and it works great lol That is really nice, even tho to be honest it is just the wrapper.
Game is kinda mid, but i did learn a lot of wisdom.
very wise last level too difficult
