Dog Puzzle Story 2

The second Dog Puzzle Story returns to Charlie, a puppy whose enthusiasm has left toys, dog pillows and treats scattered across the whole garden. Your job is to put them back where they belong, and the way you do it is a colourful match-3 board: swap two neighbours, line up three or more, and the level inches towards tidy.

Framing a puzzle as tidying up turns out to change the pacing. Levels are built around a specific set of items to recover rather than a raw score, so a board is finished when the garden is, and there is a clear reason to prefer one match over another even when both look equally big.

Charlie’s digging supplies the rest of the structure — things buried in the garden come up as you progress. It is a gentle run rather than a demanding one, aimed at players who want the puzzle to be pleasant company rather than an opponent.

1. Look at which items the level wants recovered before you start.
2. Swap two adjacent pieces to line up three or more of a kind.
3. Direct your matches at the items on the list rather than at whatever is largest.
4. Keep going to dig up what is buried around the garden.

When a level lists two different items, clear the rarer one first. The board refills from the top, so the common item keeps arriving on its own, while the scarce one runs out of chances as the level shortens.
