They’ve travelled vast distances through space. They’ve colonized countless star systems. They’ve forgotten why they’re here…

Can you guide the lovable - but soooo stupid - Sheep to Mt Mouflon without getting them bashed, boiled, blown up or blow-dried?

Ever had a burn-up with a Sheep on a Spacehopper?
Welcome to Sheep…

The aim of Sheep is to guide, lead, shove or throw as many Sheep as possible back to their celestial ancestors.

You start each level with a flock of Sheep, and the aim is to "persuade" the Sheep to navigate their way to the level Exit while keeping as many of the little flockers alive as possible.

Apart from wrestling with thesheer mind-boggling brainlessness of your charges, there are huge numbers of hazards to avoid and obstacles to overcome, and if you are sharp, quite a few juicy bonuses to be found.

You can choose to play one of four herders and you use the Herder to coax your Sheep into negotiating their way through the hazards.
You do not have direct control of the Sheep (not as easy as you thought huh?), but you are able to control the Herder.

The key to success is to understand how the Sheep react to the Herder in all situations and so be able to use the Herder to drive the Sheep to where you want them togo.

Here are some key features of "Sheep":
Choose from 4 hapless characters, including the sassy Bo Peep and the over-enthusiastic Motley.
There are four breeds of sheep, each with their own distinctive styles, behaviours and aims. They do, however, share the same common trait of stupidity.
Guide your Sheep through 28 flocktastic levels, avoiding Mr. Pear and his evil hench-cows.
Solve puzzles, collect the golden sheep and unlock the barmy bonus levels.
