8 of 25I purchased this app because the art looked great and the puzzles sound fun. But sadly the app install has a bug and despite paying for it, the game doesn't work. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times and reported the bug too. No response, bug patch or anything. Disappointing!
Lots of fun, great graphics, but it needs more levels badly.
This game is addictive!
This game is so much fun. It's a brain game, but it's not so difficult that it's out of reach for most people. I love using the different qualities of each sheep to overcome the obstacles - whoever created this game is a genius!!
Engaging, cute, challenging, and enjoyable--but, also, frustrating, infuriating, maddening, and, ultimately, often more irritating than fun! Level 13 -- even when I have "cheated" and seen the online videos of solving it -- remains essentially impossible. Far too much fiddling, trying, jumping, positioning just so, etc. After a dozen+ tries, I'm ready to delete the app, sad to say. UPDATE: Look for the "secret way" video. It's still tricky, but eventually doable. Hint: Shaun also can move the safes! Other thoughts. There is a fair amount of repetition across levels and it is often hard to decipher the drawings! They are 2-d renderings of 3 dimensional space and, thus, lack depth. You end up having to smash the poor sheep into buildings, poles, etc. to figure out which are obstacles, which are in the distance and which close. HINT: Hit the Retry button for any level and you'll get new hints, although they do quickly run out. Wish there were an option to bypass a level--I must have done Level 13 sometime as Level 14 is available. The fun is in figuring out the solution to the puzzles, and making that happen-- not having to manage incredibly, excessively tricky manipulation of the sheep, which go awry. The developers should rework things or give us a "simple" option to make controlling easier. Also, please include an option to turn off the shimmering of the sheep--that ends up making one feel rushed rather than contemplative. To be fair, to be a kind reviewer, I'm raising this to 4 stars! I can only imagine just how much goes into developing an app and armchair potshots must be discouraging!
This game is visually pleasing BUT would be alot more fun if the sheep were easier to control. Even something as simple as choosing which of the sheep you want to move is sometimes nearly impossible if they are located too close to the direction controls.
the 1-click clear your progress bug? This is one place I wouldn't mind a modal dialog window.
Love this game but now unable to play it because the new iOS requires this game to be updated :-(
