PocketSheep
SCORE: 80
I am exceptionally thankful Family Friendly Gaming was provided a
download code for PocketSheep on the iPad/iPhone. This is a fun and
clever little downloadable hand held video game with thirty levels.
Families can play play PocketSheep in easy, medium and hard modes. Each
time you beat one of the levels (for the first time) in each of those
three modes you will get a cute sheep card. The sheep have different
professions in those cards like a fire fighter.
PocketSheep has a child mode which makes the game easier. In fact there
are multiple options that make PocketSheep easier in child mode. The
amount of the sheep can be dropped to one, and the sheep won't get hurt
by lava, and the sheep will not fall of the edges of the map. As a
reviewer I found this mode to be very beneficial. Who doesn't like being
able to beat a game faster.
The finger controls in PocketSheep work really well. The sheep will move
away from your finger. Players can use two fingers at a time to herd the
sheep in the right direction. The maps in PocketSheep get tough if you
play this game in regular mode. Sheep will fall off the edges and
respawn back at beginning. Or they will get hit by lava. Which is a
really bad thing for a fluffy sheep.
I had a good time playing PocketSheep. I know the game play mechanic is
not the newest thing on the market. It is however applied in a really
good way in this app. The one issue I had with PocketSheep in terms of
controls is not being able to see a sheep. If the sheep was right under
my finger it might go the wrong direction without me being aware. This
seems to more of an issue with touch only controls on the device.
I hope to see more games like PocketSheep in the future. I love how this
app is thoughtful of children, and casual gamers. If you want a
challenge, then you can get it. If you don't then go into the options
and put the game in childs mode. This resonates really well here at
Family Friendly Gaming. The cards are a neat extra in PocketSheep. The
music in PocketSheep is nice. The graphics look good as well, albeit a
bit small in the game play levels.
