Flock It! is a refreshing time-management and puzzle game where you herd your flocks of sheep to their pen while collecting stars, keeping within the time limit, and avoiding various dangerous or disadvantageous things such as electric fences, bodies of water, and patches of slowing mud. Controls are simple - tap on the screen to release a bark and scatter the sheep away from that point. Graphics are very nicely done and the game itself is always fun and will keep you occupied as you think of the best and fastest way to get the sheep to their destinations. If you're looking for something different and easy to pick up and play, you should definitely check this game out!
Love it!!!
What a stupid game... d:
The game is so much fun. Some of the twists like getting your sheep wet or electrocuted are absolutely hillarious.
This game is rad--it's quirky, fun, and light-hearted. I mean, herding sheep through mazes of mud puddles and electrical fences... throw in a few wolves for the minigames and you've got a party :D
The game is cute and fun, but gets really boring really fast.
Bringing out the inner shepherd in you, Flock It is, first and foremost, not a drawing game as one would expect. Instead, touching or tapping the screen sends off sonic waves (my term!) that send the perpetually bleating sheep moving in a certain direction. A few more taps and you can herd them together to go to the fence. Keep a watchful eye on your flock, though, because after a while they tend to diverge paths even while inside the fenced area. Mini-games are incorporated into each level that lend variety to the game.The game gets progressively difficult with new obstacles. Soon, you will find yourself trying to get stubborn sheep to cross the bridge and get to the other side. So far, I've been successful as getting them to swim(!) to get to the other side, though they end up wet and dirty. Graphics and (realistic) game sounds are good, although the bleating might get on your nerves after a while. Some in-game music would be nice.
This game is one that you'll either play all the time or play a few times and never touch it again. It's definitely in a category all its own. I happen to fall somewhere between; I feel like playing it once in a while but it's not addictive to me like some other games are. It's unique and challenging - sometimes verging on frustrating - and worth a try.
