Sheeplings - Strangely Addictive Arcade Game

 

Sheeplings is a very attractive and enjoying arcade game from Karja Soft. You are to deliver the cute little sheep to a sheep jumping competition in Woolville.

 

The road ahead is long and full of all kinds of things like wolves or eagles that will hinder you from leading your stubborn sheep to the destination.

 

 

 

Bringing your sheep to the competition takes going through 80 levels.

 

According to the game story you are to bring sheep to the sheep jumping competition in Woolville.

 

But the thing is that you don't know how to get there and your grandfather is the one to help you.

 

So you start for him through all the levels shown on the map.

 

Most of the levels are locked at the beginning. But rank tokens that you get along the game help you unlock the levels on the map.

 

You can control a sheepdog with the help of your mouse. Barking at the sheep will make them get where you need.

 

So how do you lead the sheep?

 

Well you do that by controlling a sheepdog.

 

The sheepdog follows your cursor and barks as you use the left button of your mouse.

 

The cute fluffy sheep hang out on the green grass.

 

You have to bark at them in order to direct them where you need.

 

The tasks in the levels won't stun you with their difficulty.

 

 

The levels' tasks aren't that difficult.

 

You are to take your sheep to the glittery area most of the times.

 

The sheep can be white (normal), black, and small (the later two are considered to be more stubborn, but no obvious difference has been noticed).

 

There are also levels where you should protect your sheep from wolves or eagles.

 

You do that just by woofing at them. Some of the levels have time limits though and can take a few trials.

 

There are bonuses hidden in trees in some levels. You can find them only by barking on them.

 

Despite some faults the game would be a good option for a change.

 

Sheeplings has very bright and cute graphics (maybe even somewhat babyish).

 

The gameplay just strikes sometimes with some of its tasks that make zero sense.

 

And the system of unlocking the levels gets a bit irritating because you may not be let to get further due to the low ranking for the previous level.

 

So you have to do your best in any of the previous levels to get as many stars as possible to get further. Though I guess Sheeplings would be a good option for children and a worthy pastime for adults.
