Slobbery, floppy canines are running amok! These furry mongrels are busy chasing cats, chewing on bones and digging holes. Will a dog whistle cause your Maltese to run away? Is there enough food for your set of Dalmatians? Do you have enough resources to give these pups a happy home? Your next turn might just make you the leader of Alpha Pack!
Players will take turns selecting cards (dogs, food/housing resources, or special cards) using an open drafting mechanism. Points are gained by competing for pack cards that have various requirements in order to collect said cards. During gameplay, events will occur that will affect the cards players hold. Once the pack cards have been claimed, players tally their collected pack cards and other points gained throughout the game. The player with the most points wins.
