Synopsis
Phineas and Ferb are asleep while they were working at their newest idea, which is an opportunity for Perry the Platypus to successfully sneak into O.W.C.A.'s headquarters. However, Perry (now as Agent P) is stuck at a checkpoint. It is revealed that with progressing through the entrance, it needs to be powered by water. After the final level is finished, it reveals a more comedically mundane outcome of what the stage would have been about, e.g. in "An Agent I Can Trust", Major Monogram asks Agent P if he trusts him with his new mustache, much to Agent P's annoyance.
All of the main levels also require the player to collect gnomes, to unlock the next set. The game has two other game modes; Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated, where Doofenshmirtz's levels require "evil" sludge (the game's version of poisonous water), turning various household objects into his mechanized, sentient minions of his likeness. With three other agents – Terry the Turtle, Peter the Panda and Pinky the chihuahua – coming together to fight back, the O.W.C.A. levels combine previous mechanics and introduce Doofenshmirtz's newest Inator, which can change dirt into water and vice versa.

While 148Apps gave the app an overall rating of 4 stars, the reviewer said "...I can’t help feeling Where’s My Perry? is a little too close to Where’s My Water? to earn top marks. As a sequel it’s more than solid, just download prepared for more of what you know and love, not a new experience."[3] Slide To Play gave it a rating of 3+ (good), saying "Simply put, Where’s My Perry? is a very good game, whether you’re a fan of Where’s My Water? or a fan of Phineas and Ferb. And if you’re a fan of both? Then there is no reason for you not to have this game."[4] Gamezebo gave it 4½ stars.[5]
