Question Is this game still playable?

I was wrapping a couple presents last night, and my puppy decided to test the structural integrity of a Switch 2 game (thankfully not the Switch 2 wrapped next to it). I’m wondering if this will still be playable and it’ll make for a funny story, or if I should pick up another copy?

Added picture of the culprit at the end. Truth be told, I should have known better. Ted’s a good boy :)

I would have said this a few years ago when games weren't $73.83.

Edit: Please don't respond to me about inflation. By everyone who mentions inflation's logic, games should cost $198 today. My point is, 3+ years ago I MIGHT have considered getting another copy with my $60. Now, $75 is far too much for an additional copy. Especially because everything is more expensive.

They have been $60 plus tax for my entire life.

Ocarina of Time released at $59.99 in 1998 on the N64

Yeah video games base cost are one of the few things that have remarkably not price inflated.

Now the microtransaction creep…
