  • Protect your sheep from predators in turn-based battles where your attacks are made using a unique time-based bar mechanic that minimizes your dependence on luck. Each of these predators has their own special attacks and abilities.

  • Strengthen your sheep by increasing their core stats of beauty, fertility and agility.

  • Breed your sheep to make various genetic combinations each with their own appearance and attributes.

  • Meet variety of desert-folk and help them with their problems. Help them and they will help you back with gifts, some helpful advice, and some not so helpful advice.
