Priority fixes

  1. [composition] Enlarge or reposition the secondary animals to occupy safer margins and remain readable at tiny thumbnail size, or consolidate focal elements into a tighter primary group.
  2. [uniqueness_polish] Add a subtle UI element or visual cue (e.g., a small turn counter, movement arrow, or command icon) that hints at the strategy layer and creates visual distinction from pure animal aesthetic games.
  3. [title_readability] Test the title legibility at 120x45 viewport and consider slight letter spacing adjustment if compression degrades the pun clarity.

Store copy priority fixes

  1. [feature_communication] Add one or two concrete examples of dog abilities (e.g., 'The Border Collie can block paths, the Sheepdog can push multiple animals at once') to help players visualize gameplay.
  2. [uniqueness] Insert a sentence differentiating the game from standard turn-based tactics, such as 'Unlike traditional grid-based puzzlers, animals move with real personality and can surprise you' or highlight what makes this specifically a herding game rather than generic unit placement.
  3. [hook_strength] Consider opening the short description with a confident statement like 'Master the art of herding in this cozy turn-based strategy' rather than leading with a question, to create stronger immediate appeal.
