Way of the Dogg
Way of the Dogg is an unusual fight in which attacks are led out by tapping the rhythm to the music by Snoop Dogg. The game tells a humorous story of revenge stylized on low-budget films from the 1970s and offers both campaign and multiplayer mode.

Way of the Dogg, released on X360 and PS3, is a music fighting game featuring Snoop Dogg, a popular rapper. This is the debut production of Echo Peak studio, which was founded by a duo composed of Ciaran Walsh and Ste Curran - people responsible for the logical music game Chime.
Plot
The game tells the story of a warrior named America Jones. His girlfriend Sierra was murdered and the hero's only desire is revenge. He goes to a temple managed by Snoop Dogg to learn the titular fighting style. The story doesn't take itself seriously. The game refers to martial arts movies from the 70s - this is apparent both in terms of the story and audiovisuals.
Mechanics
Way of the Dogg has twenty levels. Our task is to win a series of duels with other warriors. The combat system is based on solutions found in music games - attacking requires the right rhythm to Snoop Dogg's songs.
Game modes
The game also has a multiplayer mode which allows you to face other players. We develop our own skills in the training mode, where the rapper acts as a teacher.
