Divide By Sheep

The Grim Reaper causes a flood in hopes of making friends among the dead, leaving sheep and other animals stranded on sinking islands. You guide them toward safety while solving each island's puzzle.

Move groups of animals between islands and boats to reach a required number. Combine or split groups, and use hazards such as lasers and wolves to change the count.

As you progress through the worlds, new characters and hazards add rules to work into your solutions. Puzzles build on arithmetic and planning, asking you to figure out a sequence of moves that gets the right animals to safety.

Players who enjoy the game often praise its charming animal art and music, and find its simple arithmetic mechanics satisfying to work through. Reviews also appreciate the odd, darkly comic premise and the new hazards introduced across levels. Some players enjoy the brain-teasing challenge, while others find the difficulty uneven or the puzzles repetitive; several also miss having an undo button.
