Color Sheep

Cyan-ora wolfie

by Paul Devlin 15/3/2013

If films like Frozen and The Grey have taught us anything, it's that wolves are deadly killers that all creatures should live in mortal fear of.

Fortunately, we have a new protector to defend us from the sharp-fanged beasts - a sheep that's able to change colour, chameleon-style, and blast them with laser beams.

Sir Woolson, as he's known, is somehow not the strangest thing in this bizarre high score-attack game, which plays like a version of Simon Says themed around lupine slaughter.

It's just a shame Color Sheep's controls can't quite keep up with the frantic, chroma-matching action, meaning that the one-note gameplay soon wears thin. ...

In this bright colour-matching game, sheep are pitted against wolves in a score attack experience that's cruelly let down by woolly controls and a savage difficulty curve
