battle_sheepOut now in stores from Blue Orange Games, Battle Sheep is an area control game featuring…sheep. I’m guessing you already know that part. You know, because of the game’s name.

In the game players split their stack of sheep and move them in a straight line as far as they will go. You’ve got to cover the most ground, block your opponents sheep, and become the king of the pasture.

Battle sheep is for 2-4 players ages 7+, and lasts around 15 minutes. MSRP is $27.99.

It looks cute. Something I think my younger kids would be totally into between the art and the lighter game play.
