Out at midnight: Guide clumsy sheep down a mountain in Madow - Sheep Happens
You win some, you lose some
Madow - Sheep Happens is a game about how moronic sheep are. They'll follow each other off cliffs and into ditches, don't you know? Absurd animals.
This is what makes them a good fit for a Lemmings-like game. Yep, in Madow, you're a shepherd, and have to ensure your sheep get down a dangerous mountain safely.
Now, while Madow does compare to Lemmings, it sacrifices puzzle complexity for a fast pace. So don't expect to have to give them umbrellas to float down a cliff's edge, or anything like that.
No, what you have to do is tap the screen to control a number of bridges. Unfortunately, while some of the bridges are up, others are down.
This is fine when you have just one sheep to escort down the mountainside, flipping the bridges when necessary. But when you have dozens of sheep to worry about, you learn to accept that you're going to lose a few.
Your goal is to get a high a score as possible, but the longer you last, the more sheep are added. What also makes it harder are the different types of sheep - red ones run faster than white ones, for example.
Madow is a simple one-touch game that gradually moves you into a frenzy. You'll be able to download it for free on the UK and US App Stores at midnight.
It will also be available on Google Play and the Amazon App Store for Android players tomorrow.
