Genres:Strategy, Puzzle
Themes:Comedy
Game modes:Single player
Story:Sheep is a combination strategy and puzzle game, featuring light elements of war or battle simulations, built around a wacky story in which space-faring alien explorers from millennia ago devolve into domesticated sheep on Earth. Now their ancestors are trying to round them up by secretly enlisting the aid of two humans (Bo Peep and Adam Half Pint) and two animals (a sheepdog and a pet) through subliminal mind control. Players take the role of the Earthly "herders" to lead the flocks through six worlds with multiple levels, eventually reaching special rendezvous point where they'll be loaded onto UFOs for the trip back to their home world of Ovis Aries. No direct control is exerted on the sheep so players must manipulate objects and obstacles, as well as rely on the strengths of each herder, to accomplish the tasks. Levels have time limits and a minimum number of sheep to be saved from each flock.Show more

Sheep was my first PC game and one of the first games I ever played. My father had gone on a trip, and when he returned, he gave this game to me and my brother as a gift. Many of my childhood memories revolve around this game. To this day, I have the entire soundtrack, SFX, characters, and environments engraved in my memory. Everything is so vivid, funny, and full of personality. It's a shame this game has been forgotten over time. My dream is for it to be re-released someday so I can play it again and relive all those memories.

I swear I don't remember how I came across this game, but I bought it once and had a lot of fun with the crazy story, that the sheep are actually aliens, and want to return to their planet, but need the help of people and dogs selected to serve as shepherds and guide the poor, defenseless sheep around the map. But don't be fooled by its cute appearance, the game is much harder than it seems, even remembering that my record was getting to the last level of the second world, the medieval fair. But it's still a very fun game, which I would love to be able to play again on GOG.

Silent Hill 3
Silent Hill 3Silent Hill 3 is the third installment in the Silent Hill series. Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.

Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter
Breath of Fire: Dragon QuarterBreath of Fire: Dragon Quarter is a radical departure from the previous titles of the Breath of Fire series, and in some ways from standard Japanese-style role-playing games in general. The game is built like a huge dungeon crawler, with no overworld map. The combat is tactical: each character has action points (AP), which can be used to move around the screen during an enemy encounter, and perform a variety of combo attacks. There is no magic in the game, and many of the items found in dungeons are random. All the enemies are visible on screen. Depending on who first initiated a physical contact, the party or the enemies get an extra turn in battles. The game allows (and even encourages) the player to restart it from the beginning, keeping the items and the party experience. The game also features a special counter - Ryu can use his traditional dragon transformation abilities, but the counter raises with each such transformation, and when the counter reaches 100, the game is over. Raising the D-ratio allows characters to access new areas every time the game is replayed.
