Sheep Dog Sim

Guide a sheepdog across three islands and try to herd up to 5,000 sheep. The sheep flee when you get close. Get too close and the whole flock scatters. The trick is circling wide, reading the herd. It's surprisingly meditative once you find the rhythm.

THREE BIOMES

Home Field is a flat fenced pasture - the starter, practice the basics here. Rolling Hills is a 180-metre island with golden-hour mood and a lightning-zap corral. Open Country is a 380-metre island where you gather the sheep into a round-up zone, then drive them through a portal at the north shore.

SIX MODES

Just Play (30 sheep, no timer, no fail state). Solo Classic (200, leaderboard). Solo Extreme (1,000). Solo Insane (3,000). Solo Chaos (5,000 - the flock becomes the antagonist). Multiplayer for 2-4 players, co-op or competitive.
