Probably designed as an alternative to the popular activity of watching paint dry.
But at least you have to admit...back in the day people sure liked to try out new ideas in games
instead of simply changing the textures on the buddies for the latest fps game...
It was a bit fascinating at the time. Well, at least until you realized that the guy won't go down the pub to get drunk and has no sex life whatsoever. :) Sad computer person! oh! i get it now! i'm off...
There was some major hype over the c64 version of this programme, why, what for, can anybody tell me what kind of a world we live in when we have to watch one man and his dog on a computer screen.
I hate this game because I blame it for the Sims. At the time it was revolutionary, I remember just sitting in front of the game for days cajouling the character to go to the toilet etc. Classic stuff
First of all: this is no game. You can just sit and watch while this little man and his dog live in the house. Sometimes he goes watching TV, sometimes he does some kind of aerobic and...ok...sometimes he asks you to play cards with him...that's all. Quite funny for a while or for a nice background on your party ;-)
