Divide By Sheep Gameplay Review
Don’t let that “math puzzler” wording get you down. There is no addition, or subtraction numbers floating across the screen. Instead, the game is quite simple. You think.
Sheep are on platforms. Dancing about. You need to get them to the life raft. Not all platforms are created equal unfortunately and you need to get the RIGHT amount of sheep to the platform each time. That makes it a little trickier. The order then becomes important, as well as the various dark comedy death traps that the game releases as you advance through the levels.
Think wolves. Think lasers. Sheep With Laserbeam Walls. Krakens? What could possibly go wrong?
I quickly found myself hoping through levels hoping for the magic 3 stars, retrying when I didn’t get it. Sheep will drown and disintegrate. Things will die. They sacrifice themselves so their friends can go on. Time flew by from a game I expected to only check out for a few minutes. I do believe that is the point. That background song will catch in your head too.
The artwork is really quite cute, but can quickly get quite disturbing. this game is actually pretty dark. Not for children in my opinion. The more you play the darker the comedy elements it throws at you. Starts off cute, Ends on deadly. 🙂
