W A L K T R O U G H ============================ CHAPTER ONE: STORY ================== Millions of years ago, members of an advanced alien race were left on a young green Earth to observe the development of the primitive life forms. As the years passed, the descendants lost sight of their lofty task and became one with their surroundings, indistinguishable from Earth creatures. The indigenious population could not know that amongst them lived a vastly superior life force, one which has envolved from a mental and physical state, far beyond their comprehension ... ... SHEEP CHAPTER TWO: BASICS =================== It isn't so hard to learn how to play Sheep. You can choose amongst keyboard, mouse and joystick control. I advise to anyone who starts to play Sheep, that he first takes the tutorial missions in the game before starting to play the real missions in Sheep. If you do not know the controls, here are some of them: Keyboard controls ----------------- Move forward = Forward key Move backwards = Backward key Move left = Left key Move right = Right key Hold one Sheep = Go near Sheep and hold ALT key Use items (candy) = Spacebar key Open fences = ALT key Mouse controls -------------- Moving around = Move your mouse up, down, left, right CHAPTER THREE: HOW TO MOVE THE SHEEP ==================================== As you probably know from your life experience, Sheep do not move the way you want. The authors of this game tryed to make an artifical Uninteligence. When you approach from the right, your Sheep move left. When you approach from the left, your sheep move right. You can even move the Sheep by holding them and bringing them to the end of the level. Here are a few hints on how to move the Sheep: Hint 1 : Try the tutorials in the Sheep game. They help you a lot and you will know how Sheep react to your moves. Hint 2 : You can always try to carry your Sheep. Using the ALT button near the Sheep, you can hold it and bring it to the end of the level. Hint 3 : When you approach Sheep from the right (as said before) they go to the left. Try doing everything opposite what you plan to do. THIS HINT DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK. YOUR SHEEP MAY MOVE ANOTHER WAY. CHAPTER FOUR: POWERUPS ====================== There are some powerups in the game itself to move your Sheep more easy. You can use the RADIO (it starts when you pick it up), SHEEP follow you during this one. If you pick up a candy, you can place candies so Sheep will follow you. If you pick the GOLDEN GLOBUS in each level (four in each world) you can play a bonus level. So, let's repeat this one: CANDIES You place candies and Sheep follow you in that path. RADIO - You pick it up and Sheep follow you constantly until its effect ends. GOLDEN GLOBUS If you pick four golden globuses, you get a bonus level at the end of the world. CHAPTER FIVE: SELECT A CHARACTER ================================ Before you start to play Sheep, you can select a character (aka herder). There are four characters available: BoPeep, Adam Halfpint, Motley and Shep. Each character has its own way of handling Sheep and its own way of cheat codes (see cheat section for more). EXAMPLE: If you use MOTLEY, you can bite your Sheep when using cheat codes. CHAPTER SIX: CHARACTERS DESCRIPTION =================================== Each character has its own way of herding Sheep and its own way of cheats (see cheat section for more details). Here is a brief description of the characters: BoPeep ------ As I can see, she is a male herder. She can hold sheep and bring them to the end of the level and she can scream to make them go faster. Adam Halfpint ------------- He is a male herder and he has the same capabilities as BoPeep, but better cheat mode. Motley ------ He is a sheep dog. He can guide sheeps and he can bark to make them go faster. Shep ---- A realy good name for a Sheep dog. He can also bark at sheep to make them go faster and he can bite them. CHAPTER SEVEN: TYPES OF SHEEP ============================= There are four types of sheep that you must herd during one world. One type of sheep in one level and another one in the second. Each sheep react in their own ways to your moves. EXAMPLE: The longwool sheep are slover, while the pastoral sheep react faster and move faster. Here is a brief description of the types of sheep: PASTORAL -------- The most regular sheep. They have white wool and react faster to your moves. That isn't always good. If and enemy is approaching and sheep react faster they can go wright to them. FACTORAL -------- They look the same as factoral sheep, but they have brown wool. They have the same capabilities and faults just like the pastoral sheep. LONGWOOL -------- These sheep have a very long brown wool. They react slow to your moves and move slower than regular sheep. NEOGENETIC ---------- These are a very veird type of sheep. They have the same capabilities as the pastoral and factoral sheep, but they act very cool and they vear glasses. CHAPTER EIGHT: AVOIDING ENEMIES =============================== You will encounter lots of enemies in the world. Here are some hints on how to avoid them: Hint 1 : If possible, hold one sheep and bring it to the end of the level. Hint 2 : Try to use the hints I've told you in CHAPTER THREE. Hint 3 : In the beginning, try to play on the easy skill. You have more time and more sheep. Hint 4 : Try to find powerups. The radio is very useful and Sheep can follow you. CHAPTER NINE: SKILL SETTINGS ============================ You can play Sheep on three skill settings: EASY ---- As the name says, this is the easiest. You have more time and more sheep. MEDIUM ------ Medium setting. I recommend to people that have already played Sheep. HARD ---- For advanced players. You have less time and less sheep. CHAPTER TEN: HINTS AND TIPS =========================== HINT 1 = MOTLEY --------------- When playing any level with Motley if you press q,w,e in quick succession he will bite the sheep nearest to him causing it to jump over any obstacle. HINT 2 = ADAM HALF PINT ----------------------- Adam Half Pint can drop pints to get the sheep to follow him. Apparently you have to type pint really quickly while holding down Alt + Shift. HINT 3 = MODERN PASTORAL SHEEP ------------------------------ The Modern Pastoral sheep can be made to follow any character by chasing them around the same object five times! Try this one at your own risk. If doing this one with Shep you run the risk making him puke. HINT 4 = EASY LEVEL SKIP ------------------------ Sometimes it's easier to just grab the sheep individually and carry them to the end of the map. HINT 5 = EXPLORING ------------------ Make sure you explore the map as much as you can before setting out. It's often possible to find quicker paths to the end and you won't risk losing that many sheep. HINT 6 = ALWAYS BE ON A LOOKOUT ------------------------------- Always be on the lookout for hint signs and for other sheep that will assist you in your efforts. CHAPTER ELEVEN: GAME CHEATS =========================== To cheat in Sheep press ESC during gameplay and type any of these cheats: IWANTTHEMALLANDIWANTTHEMNOW = Sheep will follow you FATSHEEP = Sheep grow to 150% of their size MINISHEEP = Sheep shrink to half of their normal size POOSHEEP = Pastoral Sheep Poo instead of Graze CANCELCHEATS = Cancel any cheats entered CHAPTER TWELVE: SHEEP LINKS =========================== Here are some sheep related links: Sheep home page: www.empireinteractive.com Sheep cheats and hints www.cheatbook.de Sheep revisions: www.gamespot.com IV.

It isn't so hard, is it. If you finish this game, let me know. In PC GAMER SLOVENIJA it was marked extrodinary game and the mark was 85%. For 40$ this is a very fun game to play. Too bad there aren't any multiplayer modes. Well, you have enough work with single player episodes. This game is worth to try and it is also worth your money. VI.
