This is a refreshing change of pace from the usual HOG offering. I'm a little surprised people had a difficult time figuring out how to play - simply get all the furries to their home base. There are some objects to experiment with to help with this objective, but that's part of the fun. I like the fact that there is no time involved - take as long as you like.

This is a refreshing change of pace from the usual HOG offering. I'm a little surprised people had a difficult time figuring out how to play - simply get all the furries to their home base. There are some objects to experiment with to help with this objective, but that's part of the fun. I like the fact that there is no time involved - take as long as you like. I also love the fact that you can zoom into the screen with your mouse wheel and see things close up. Some of the levels are very cleverly designed and need to be replayed several times to save all the furries and get all the bubbles.

The game is not perfect: I wish there were the option for more than one player, I would like to see each level number shown on the playing screen, I wish you would be given the option of replaying a level before automatically advancing to the next level, I wish you wouldn't be given a perfect score of 3 flying saucers unless you collected all furries AND all bubbles - this would let you know which levels to replay for extra points and bubble collection. Developers take note for "Save the Furries 2"!

Because of some of these shortcomings, I probably would have given this game 4 stars. However, after reading some of the low scoring reviews of people who spent as little as 4 minutes playing the game, I decided to even things out a little by giving 5 stars. It really isn't fair to the developers of a game whose livelihood depends on game sales, to spend so little time on a game before reviewing it. Show less

I recommend this game!

This is a cute but frustrating game where you have to push crates around and figure out what strategy needs to be taken in order to get the Furries from dropoff point (UFO) to the end. There are baskets to slingshot the Furries from as well as cannons to launch, there are medals to try to reach for extra points.

This is a cute but frustrating game where you have to push crates around and figure out what strategy needs to be taken in order to get the Furries from dropoff point (UFO) to the end. There are baskets to slingshot the Furries from as well as cannons to launch, there are medals to try to reach for extra points. There are achievements to earn and you can try to beat your own score which is a good thing because it sometimes takes several tries to figure out the best option, enjoy! Show less

If you like the Lemmings games of the 90's then this is a small scale version of it. There isn't as many features as I remember from Lemmings but the Challenge is there, especially as there is no instructions and you have to work out what things do. If you are willing to do this then you have a game that can fill a few hours.

I don't recommend this game.

It is a challenge to figure out how to get from point A to B without loss of one of your furries. It's a physics based game with villains and deathtraps in the way that give it an arcade type of spin to the strategy element. The graphics in the game are fine it's just the cut scenes that gives the score which are a little old fashioned and reminds me of the spore creature. Great game if that's ...Show more

Okay here we go. It's a fun little game that I have on on my iPad. Always a dead giveaway game designed for other platforms with that "finger" you maneuver with the mouse.

I played a few minutes of this PC demo to see how it went. It's slow, and maneuvering the "finger" with the mouse loses a bit in the translation, but so far it has been doable. Since I don't have a touchscreen PC, I have no ...Show more

Okay here we go. It's a fun little game that I have on on my iPad. Always a dead giveaway game designed for other platforms with that "finger" you maneuver with the mouse.

I played a few minutes of this PC demo to see how it went. It's slow, and maneuvering the "finger" with the mouse loses a bit in the translation, but so far it has been doable. Since I don't have a touchscreen PC, I have no idea how it would play on one of those.

As to the Furries, they're cute little guys. But when I say little, I really mean teensy tiny little green guys, barely big enough to see as they drop out of their spaceship. Could they have made them any tinier??

But I digress. To begin play, click through the dialogue til the first planet shows up. Then wait til the yellow circle appears on that planet. Click the yellow circle and go.

Our job is to quickly maneuver the boxes and other obstacles on the course so that the Furries can reach their safe zone (designated by the relatively large flashing arrow). Sometimes it's just a matter of clearing the path so they can walk to it. Other times you have to get them to what looks like a basket which is the "sling". From there, you need to spin it around so it will slingshot them to their safe zone. Then draw back on the finger to designate the power of the slingshot. Think Angry Birds.

The graphics on each level are beautiful and vivid. It's the teensy tiny little Furries that could have been pumped up a bit. It is a cute game and a fun way to pass the time. Show less

Maybe I'm not that bright, but I couldn't figure out how to play. I only played 4 minutes and gave up. I even won once and set a new record, but had no idea what I'd just done. It needs a better tutorial in my opinion.

I don't recommend this game.

Very unappealing graphics and sound should be able to shut off music and still enjoy other sound effects! Not well explained at all!!!!!!!
