The sky breaks blue and bright over a mouth-watering field of obstacles. You’ve adopted, loved, and trained your team of Agility Dogs to share in the joys of a day just like this. Their exuberance is catching as they prepare to breathtakingly weave the poles, sail over hurdles, blast through tunnels, round corners at top speed with fur a-tussle, and harness lightning while waiting for your cue on the trust-testing pause box. Your Husky's glacier blue eyes are clear and focused, your Golden Retriever mirrors the sun with radiant energy, and the feisty little Jack Russell pup is ready to run with the big dogs. Test your wit and instincts in this two-player game of vision and versatility!

Agility applies a unique mechanic in which cards that supply resources also select actions. On your turn, you play a Training Card that provides one of two types of resources in varying quantities while also granting an action building off of what your opponent just played. This encourages clever planning and timing. Training you need may be at odds with the action you’d like, so weighing your options will be crucial. Resources may be used to adopt dogs or to clear obstacles on the three courses you've drafted from the six available each game. Courses can only be claimed once a dog is adopted, so there is a race within a race to snatch up Wonderdogs or Underdogs well suited to the available courses. Then it’s nip and tuck as the canine competitors bound over, under, and through to the finish lines!

Don't judge a game by its cover

This is a great 2 player game. The artwork isn't fancy, and the theme restricts mass appeal no doubt. But gameplay is brilliant. It's worth the money too, not one that will dent the bank account.

Good little game for 2, if you like dogs- 3.5/5

Fun little game. Not too complex, some good decision making space.
If you're a dog lover (like my partner), it's fun to see the different breeds and put them through the different courses and "buy" them from the lineup. 3.5/5

Another charming experience from the makers of Morels

What a gem! The stand out features are the modular rondel and the race-to-win end game, a breath of fresh air in any collection with so many points-based win conditions. As we play more, games get quicker and the wins are always close. A delight to play every time!
