Days With a Golden Retriever Steam Demo Released

Rablo Games released a Steam demo for Days with a Golden Retriever, an FMV pet simulation starring Pichu, a real Golden Retriever. Players build a bond through walks, tricks, and interactions, raising stats to unlock content. The full game is scheduled for PC via Steam in Q1 2027.

Rablo Games has put out a playable demo for Days with a Golden Retriever, a pet simulation that uses full-motion video of a real dog named Pichu. The demo is live on Steam now, ahead of the full release planned for Q1 2027 on PC.

Gameplay centers on daily life with Pichu: players explore walking routes, teach tricks, and meet other dogs, with encounters logged in an in-game feature called Nosebook. Raising stats such as affection, happiness, discipline, athletic ability, sociability, and trust unlocks new content, including toys, dog food, and recipes. A collection goal asks players to gather 50 photos of Pichu to complete a photo album.
