Everything you need to know about scoring, progress, privacy, and rewards in Paws & Play.
You earn 20 points for every correct answer in a lesson scenario. At the end of each completed level you get a 50-point completion bonus — and if you ace all 3 questions in that level (a perfect 3/3), you score an extra 25-point perfect-run bonus. Your total points also determine your Level on the hub screen (every 100 points bumps you up a level).
The Happy Pet Meter is a fun visual progress bar that reflects how well you're caring for your pet avatar (Buddy the dog or Whiskers the cat). It starts at 50% and goes up by 8 points for every correct answer, or down by 5 points for a wrong answer. It maxes out at 100% and can't drop below 0%. Think of it as your pet's mood — keep it high by choosing the best answers!
Your game progress is saved automatically in your browser's local storage. That means your pet choice, points, badges, completed levels, and unlocked templates stick around even if you close the tab or restart your device. When you come back, you'll land on the Welcome screen but all your progress is still there — just tap through to continue from where you left off.
Gameplay data (points, badges, progress) never leaves your device — it stays in your browser's local storage only. The only information sent to our server is your email address, pet type, and final score if you choose to submit them on the results screen to unlock the free templates. We use that solely to deliver your downloads and never sell or share it.
Yes — the entire game is 100% free to play. There are no in-app purchases, no ads, and no hidden fees. The free pet care templates you unlock (like the 3-3-3 Rule Roadmap and Dog Walker Starter Kit) are genuinely free PDF downloads.
Complete every lesson level with a perfect score (15/15 correct answers) to unlock exclusive free PetProsHQ planner templates and guides. These are printable PDF downloads you can keep forever. Even if you don't ace every level, you'll still earn collectible badges for each completed category.
Absolutely! You can replay any unlocked lesson as many times as you like. If you want to start completely fresh, click the Log Out button in the bottom-right corner — that clears all saved progress and resets the game.
No account is required to play. The game works right in your browser with no sign-up. You only need to enter your email on the final screen if you want to claim the free template downloads.
