What if Counting Sheep Woke You Up?
A mysterious rift has opened. Sheep are pouring through it. We have no choice but to count and shear them. Does the textile industry benefit? Sure. Should you ask any more questions? No… no, you shouldn’t.
Enter a strange, quirky world packed with all-ages humor, beautifully animated sheep, and memorable characters. It's the first game to take counting seriously since math itself.
You already know the controls. Look. Count. Commit. But counting will get harder and harder. The better you count, the more powerful upgrades you’ll unlock. The worse you count, the more of your peanuts get eaten by crows. (Peanuts are health in this game, that was the crows' decision.)
Make every fifth sheep blue. Guarantee an even count. Capture sheep in a magic bag. Give the bag vacuum suction. All these upgrades and more are yours to earn and combine to make sheep-counting as trivial as falling asleep. Which again, you must not do under any circumstances.
Distracting Balloons. Wolves in sheeps’ clothing. A gusty wind. The better you get at counting, the more challenges appear to make you terrible at it again. That's only like a tenth of it.
A crafty spider. A dye-obsessed chameleon. More business llamas than anyone's ever seen, ready to take this whole unpleasant counting business off your hands… for a price.
Sheeps' amazing score (by Smartdumb's Nick Sylvester) shifts seamlessly as you play, from soothing woodwinds to frantic drum-n-bass breakbeats layered over the melodies.
Need a break from counting? Flick peanuts into a bucket. Pop balloons in a (possibly rigged) llama carnival game. Bump sheep around in zero-g. Play minigames between runs or face off against friends in local multiplayer.
Grab a second controller for easy drop-in, drop-out co-op. Help friends with their score or argue about how many sheep there were. They’ll miss you when you’re gone.
Play Sheeps on the go, or throw it on the big screen for a party vibe where everyone shouts completely different guesses at you. Which is really not so different from hiring those llamas.
But don't take it from us, we got an expert opinion. What do you think, buddy?
All right, he's getting sheared for that.
