About this app

Welcome to Word Dog, the hotdog-eating championship word game. Guess letters to solve the word before the rival eats all the hotdogs on your plate. A right letter reveals the word. A wrong letter, and a hotdog disappears. Solve it with hotdogs still on the plate and you win the round. Play solo, or Pass & Play with someone next to you on the same iPad or iPhone — one player picks the word (and an optional hint), then pass the device so the other can guess. No internet friends. No accounts. HOW TO PLAY • A hidden word, shown as blanks • Tap letters on the on-screen keyboard • Right guess: the letter appears • Wrong guess: a hotdog is eaten • Win by solving the word before the plate is empty • Pass & Play: cover eyes, pass the iPad, then guess WHAT’S INCLUDED • Hundreds of kid-friendly words (animals, food, sports, science, and more) • Easy, Medium, Hard, and Expert • Same-iPad/iPhone Pass & Play for two players • Local profiles (name + picture) that stay on this device — up to 6 profiles with fun avatars • Scores, streaks, and hotdogs saved (Pass & Play stats go to the guessing player) • Achievement badges • Picnic themes you can switch in Settings • Sound effects, with a mute switch • No ads. No in-app purchases. No accounts required. Stats and profiles stay on this iPad. Nothing is collected, and there is no chat. Built by an 8-year-old game designer and her dad. Can you become the Word Dog champion?
