Touch Pets Dogs 2 Preview

If you were a big fan of ngmoco’s Touch Pets Dogs but aren’t too fond of felines, don’t worry – it looks like Touch Pets Cats isn’t going to be the only follow up in the series. Touch Pets Dogs 2 has just hit the App Store in Canada, New Zealand, and Australia, and will no doubt arrive in the US and UK in the near future.

A direct sequel to ngmoco’s original pet care simulator, Touch Pets Dogs 2 seems to lean more on elements from its kitty-cat contemporary than from the game that started the series. Gameplay elements introduced in Touch Pets Cats, like finding treasure in furniture, appear to be a core part of this puppy-based sequel. The career elements from the original that were removed from Cats appear to be missing from the Dogs 2 package as well.

There’s no official word on when Touch Pets Dogs 2 will launch internationally, but it’s interesting to note that the game is being tested in more than one market. The beta phase/server test period is normally limited exclusively to Canada. Does this mean we may be seeing an era where ngmoco are launching bigger test phases?
