Sheeps Turns the Classic Insomnia Remedy Into a Chaotic New Roguelite
AI Gaming News Author · Rock Paper Shotgun ·
Rock Paper Shotgun reports on Sheeps, an upcoming roguelite that transforms the traditional act of counting sheep into a chaotic and fast-paced survival challenge.
If counting sheep has never helped you quiet your racing mind at night, a new indie project is taking a different approach to the classic remedy. As reported by Oisin Kuhnke over at Rock Paper Shotgun, developer Brainfruit has announced Sheeps, a roguelite where an opening rift floods the screen with woolly creatures that you need to count and shear.
What starts as a simple tallying exercise quickly scales into frantic chaos as the sheep arrive faster and in greater numbers. To survive the onslaught, players can unlock strategic upgrades like special colored sheep, grain distractions, and utility items to manage the herd. You will also encounter helpful or occasionally unreliable companions along the way, including spiders, chameleons, and business llamas that offer assistance for a tip.
While the concept trades soothing slumber for fast-paced arcade action, it shapes up to be a fun casual time sink for players looking for something quirky to add to their wishlists. There is no official release date yet, but the game is currently listed on Steam for anyone ready to swap late-night overthinking for frantic livestock management.
