Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a large, story-driven game may find its small party-game scope limiting.
- Players looking for calm, methodical play may bounce off the frantic hazards and competitive disruption.
- Solo players may not suit a game presented for two to four players.
- Players seeking puzzle, rhythm, or world-simulation gameplay will find a sheep-herding party game instead.
Our take on Disobedient Sheep
The bounce point is competitive Versus play: players must manage their own flock while trying to send opponents’ sheep into danger, and the mode adds biscuits, carrots, anvils, and territory competition. Players looking only for basic flock guidance may hit a wall when those competing tasks come into play.
What is Disobedient Sheep?
Disobedient Sheep is a party game for two to four participants, with each player controlling a sheepdog and directing a flock around hazards.
It offers cooperative time trials, Endless survival, Versus matches, and King of the Hill territory contests. Threats include falling anvils, dynamite, and boulders. Versus play allows players to push rival flocks toward danger, contest areas, consume biscuits for increased speed, target opponents with anvils, and attract sheep using carrots. Herding and flocking AI drive the animals’ movement. Shared controls support two players on one controller or four players across two controllers. The compact game is intended for brief sessions, parties, family events, children, older adults, and people new to games.
