Bonus extras

Everything around the game: what the hoomans actually say, who they all are, the story so far, and the real Charlie.

Overheard on the UES

The characters never say quite the same thing twice. Pick someone and see.

The cast

Every character, in full. Some of them are real (and in on it).

The story so far

Fourteen levels, one very bad week for a very good dog.

  1. Fluffy’s apartment, Park Avenue

    7:00 AM Sharp

    The Maid arrives on the dot, speaking only Spanish, vacuuming at full volume and binning Charlie’s toys.

  2. Fluffy’s apartment

    Grandpa’s Potatoes

    Pills on the floor, teeth down the toilet, potatoes on fire, and a rent-controlled lease Grandpa won’t let anyone forget.

  3. Fluffy’s apartment

    Fluffy Forgot Dinner

    Fluffy’s temper meter fills. Halfway: Volcano Mode.

  4. Fluffy’s apartment

    Aunty’s Happy Hour

    Aunty comes over for “one drink”. The Town Drunk turns up. Luckily he has a restraining order.

  5. The underground garage

    Rats in the Mini

    The rats love the biodegradable cables in Aunty’s navy Mini Cooper. The Town Drunk has car keys.

  6. Fluffy’s apartment

    The Desperate Boyfriend

    Spy cameras in every room, and the first time Fluffy goes full Devil Mode.

  7. Aunty’s penthouse, UES

    Aunty’s Penthouse

    The daughter is visiting. Fluffy is hiding in Aunty’s bedroom. She must not see them together.

  8. The Mini Cooper

    Road Trip to Southampton

    Aunty told the Desperate Boyfriend that Puppy was sick. Three hours of her driving, and the check engine light is on.

  9. Montauk Highway

    Tailgated by an F-150

    The Town Drunk follows them in his pickup, until the police pull him over for another DUI.

  10. Southampton

    Southampton Beach House

    Sand to dig in, waves, seagulls, and Fluffy hiding whenever a boyfriend shows up.

  11. The listing, Southampton

    Dumps 4 Sale

    The real reason for the trip: a condemned house, five years on the market, a crazy seller, and Aunty’s $30,000 commission. Charlie is the only reason anyone visits.

  12. Aunty’s penthouse

    Welcome Back, Uninvited

    The daughter’s welcome-back party. Fluffy wasn’t invited. Pepe the cat attacks. Fluffy takes the scratches. Nobody apologizes.

  13. The lobby, Park Avenue

    No Dogs in the Lobby

    The Super, his flashlight and his violation notices. The doormen and their treat drawer.

  14. Fluffy’s apartment, at night

    Devil Night

    Everyone, in the dark. Fluffy has been at Paola’s. Nobody is OK.
