Our take on Sheptun
The focus on finding objects and escaping hazards gives the game a clear, compact structure. That choice leaves less room for broader role-playing systems or combat-centered progression, so the main activity remains navigating the city and completing its escape tasks.
What is Sheptun?
Return to cowboy Jack Johnson’s deserted hometown and locate the things he left behind.
The game combines object finding with escapes from ghosts and demons, while mines create additional dangers in the city. The old lantern needs to be recharged through a hidden method. Another task involves bringing a skeleton back from Hell to leave the city. First-aid kits and unusual sound effects appear during the journey, which presents the cowboy’s fears with a humorous tone.
