Our take on The Culling Of The Cows
The store gives prominent space to the frantic premise and action, while progression is summarized mainly by the count of 40 levels. That leaves the broader structure of the campaign less clearly presented than its setting, enemies, and tone.
What is The Culling Of The Cows?
Play as Sammy, a farmer tasked with stopping an outbreak spreading across his land.
The game combines side-scrolling shooting with tower-defense elements, requiring direct attacks against waves of hostile creatures while using strategic play.
