You play as Sheepo, a shape-shifting creature sent to an unfamiliar planet to collect eggs from its native species for an intergalactic database. Each egg is guarded by a boss, and the planet’s unusual inhabitants and locals add to the journey.
Platforming and exploration drive the game: jump, climb, cross hazards, and use temporary creature forms to reach places Sheepo cannot access alone. Transformations are available near the relevant creatures and grant abilities suited to traversing different terrain. There is no standard combat; boss encounters focus on evasion and surviving or redirecting attacks.
The planet is an interconnected map that opens up as you collect eggs and use new forms to reach further areas and hidden rooms. Search for feathers, the planet’s currency, and explore shrines, ruins, and other locations. The route becomes less linear as more of the map becomes accessible.
Players who enjoy the game often point to its fluid platforming and exploration, creature transformations, and cute, quirky humor. Many appreciate its compact, approachable feel, though challenge opinions differ: some find the platforming and bosses demanding, while others describe the game as forgiving or easy. A number of reviewers also praise the music and visual style.
