Dogs Playing Poker 1.0 Released

Candywriter has announced the immediate availability of Dogs Playing Poker 1.0 for iPhone and iPod touch, a comic yet competitive take on mobile poker. Dogs Playing Poker has been designed for Texas Hold 'em novices, advanced poker players, and dog lovers alike.

Users select their dog breed of choice and then enter a five-round tournament that spans a junkyard, dog pound, train car, den, and Chinese restaurant kitchen! On the way, users face off against 18 unique hounds and, as if the app wasn't entertaining enough already, a fox and a walrus have also been included in the line up.

Poker novices can quickly get up-to-speed on the ins and outs of Texas Hold 'em by completing the built-in tutorial. Experienced players can enjoy the diverse poker playing traits of the various characters and the hundreds of poker "tells" bundled into the game. Dogs Playing Poker is loaded with extra touches that range from the ability to pet and poke the dogs to a feature called "Every Dog Has Its Day" that tracks the cleverest canine in the world on any given day.
