A competitive collect-a-thon with hidden objectives, treachery, and woolly ruminants. (Check out the Play Now! link below for a formatted version of this description) Played with 1 to 4 game controllers. Only the left analog stick is used for the entire game.
First agree on a objective for your team:
Eat(choose by pressing your analog stick up) - Feed the sheep by pushing them over green grass.
Trample(choose by pressing your analog stick left) - Use your character to step on as much green grass as you can.
Capture(choose by pressing your analog stick right) - Push a sheep into the pen.
Plant(choose by pressing the analog stick down) - Push the pen around the playing field to spread around fresh fertilizer.
After the game starts, try to deceive your opposing team about which objective your team secretly picked while still fulfilling as much of your secret objective as possible. If you can't seem to do well in your objective, stay on the red button in the top center for 10 seconds to switch objectives with your opponent! Surely causing a "What do we do now?" moment.
