Left at the Big Dog

Friendly directions & giant misunderstandings

Turn left at the dog.
Which big dog?

Leave four directions for a friend. They walk a little storybook town and knock at the door they think you meant. Two enormous dogs. One lovely misunderstanding.

A little walk.
A lovely misunderstanding.

Try the studio’s walk on your own. Then choose a door and leave your own four-line invitation for a friend.

  1. Read the note.

    A leaning lamp. A bench. An enormous dog. Three turns and a door to knock at—those are your directions.

  2. Find your way.

    Tap a path arrow on your phone, or use the arrow keys or WASD. Left and right in the note mean left and right from the way you’re facing.

  3. Knock. Find out.

    The door opens only when you knock. See where you ended up, replay your walk, and leave a little reply on the notes.

Your words.
Their wrong turn.

As the sender, you see the whole town and pick the destination. Your friend sees the streets around them and the notes you wrote. The missing map is the game.

“The enormous dog” sounds wonderfully clear. Until you meet the other one.

Watch an optional literal reading before sending. Share the invitation through WhatsApp, Telegram or a link, then check which door your friend actually found.
