III. W A L K T R O U G H
============================
CHAPTER ONE: STORY
==================
Millions of years ago, members of an advanced alien race were left
on a young green Earth to observe the development of the primitive
life forms.
As the years passed, the descendants lost sight of their lofty task
and became one with their surroundings, indistinguishable from Earth
creatures.
The indigenious population could not know that amongst them lived a
vastly superior life force, one which has envolved from a mental and
physical state, far beyond their comprehension ...
... SHEEP
CHAPTER TWO: BASICS
===================
It isn't so hard to learn how to play Sheep. You can choose amongst
keyboard, mouse and joystick control. I advise to anyone who starts
to play Sheep, that he first takes the tutorial missions in the game
before starting to play the real missions in Sheep. If you do not
know the controls, here are some of them:
Keyboard controls
-----------------
Move forward = Forward key
Move backwards = Backward key
Move left = Left key
Move right = Right key
Hold one Sheep = Go near Sheep and hold ALT key
Use items (candy) = Spacebar key
Open fences = ALT key
Mouse controls
--------------
Moving around = Move your mouse up, down, left, right
CHAPTER THREE: HOW TO MOVE THE SHEEP
====================================
As you probably know from your life experience, Sheep do not move
the way you want. The authors of this game tryed to make an
artifical Uninteligence. When you approach from the right, your
Sheep move left. When you approach from the left, your sheep move
right. You can even move the Sheep by holding them and bringing them
to the end of the level. Here are a few hints on how to move the
Sheep:
Hint 1 : Try the tutorials in the Sheep game. They help you a lot
and you will know how Sheep react to your moves.
Hint 2 : You can always try to carry your Sheep. Using the ALT
button near the Sheep, you can hold it and bring it to the
end of the level.
Hint 3 : When you approach Sheep from the right (as said before)
they go to the left. Try doing everything opposite what you
plan to do. THIS HINT DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK. YOUR SHEEP MAY
MOVE ANOTHER WAY.
CHAPTER FOUR: POWERUPS
======================
There are some powerups in the game itself to move your Sheep more
easy. You can use the RADIO (it starts when you pick it up), SHEEP
follow you during this one. If you pick up a candy, you can place
candies so Sheep will follow you. If you pick the GOLDEN GLOBUS in
each level (four in each world) you can play a bonus level. So,
let's repeat this one:
CANDIES You place candies and Sheep follow you in that path.
RADIO - You pick it up and Sheep follow you constantly until
its effect ends.
GOLDEN GLOBUS If you pick four golden globuses, you get a bonus
level at the end of the world.
CHAPTER FIVE: SELECT A CHARACTER
================================
Before you start to play Sheep, you can select a character (aka
herder). There are four characters available:
BoPeep, Adam Halfpint, Motley and Shep. Each character has its own
way of handling Sheep and its own way of cheat codes (see cheat
section for more).
EXAMPLE: If you use MOTLEY, you can bite your Sheep when using
cheat codes.
Each character has its own way of herding Sheep and its own way of
cheats (see cheat section for more details). Here is a brief
description of the characters:
BoPeep
------
As I can see, she is a male herder. She can hold sheep and bring
them to the end of the level and she can scream to make them go
faster.
Adam Halfpint
-------------
He is a male herder and he has the same capabilities as BoPeep, but
better cheat mode.
Motley
------
He is a sheep dog. He can guide sheeps and he can bark to make them
go faster.
Shep
----
A realy good name for a Sheep dog. He can also bark at sheep to make
them go faster and he can bite them.
CHAPTER SEVEN: TYPES OF SHEEP
=============================
There are four types of sheep that you must herd during one world.
One type of sheep in one level and another one in the second. Each
sheep react in their own ways to your moves.
EXAMPLE: The longwool sheep are slover, while the pastoral sheep
react faster and move faster.
Here is a brief description of the types of sheep:
PASTORAL
--------
The most regular sheep. They have white wool and react faster to
your moves. That isn't always good. If and enemy is approaching and
sheep react faster they can go wright to them.
FACTORAL
--------
They look the same as factoral sheep, but they have brown wool. They
have the same capabilities and faults just like the pastoral sheep.
LONGWOOL
--------
These sheep have a very long brown wool. They react slow to your
moves and move slower than regular sheep.
NEOGENETIC
----------
These are a very veird type of sheep. They have the same
capabilities as the pastoral and factoral sheep, but they act very
cool and they vear glasses.
You will encounter lots of enemies in the world. Here are some hints
on how to avoid them:
Hint 1 : If possible, hold one sheep and bring it to the end of the
level.
Hint 2 : Try to use the hints I've told you in CHAPTER THREE.
Hint 3 : In the beginning, try to play on the easy skill. You have
more time and more sheep.
Hint 4 : Try to find powerups. The radio is very useful and Sheep
can follow you.
As the name says, this is the easiest. You have more time and more
sheep.
MEDIUM
------
Medium setting. I recommend to people that have already played
Sheep.
HARD
----
For advanced players. You have less time and less sheep.
CHAPTER TEN: HINTS AND TIPS
===========================
HINT 1 = MOTLEY
---------------
When playing any level with Motley if you press q,w,e in quick
succession he will bite the sheep nearest to him causing it to jump
over any obstacle.
HINT 2 = ADAM HALF PINT
-----------------------
Adam Half Pint can drop pints to get the sheep to follow him.
Apparently you have to type pint really quickly while holding down
Alt + Shift.
HINT 3 = MODERN PASTORAL SHEEP
------------------------------
The Modern Pastoral sheep can be made to follow any character by
chasing them around the same object five times! Try this one at your
own risk. If doing this one with Shep you run the risk making him
puke.
HINT 4 = EASY LEVEL SKIP
------------------------
Sometimes it's easier to just grab the sheep individually and carry
them to the end of the map.
HINT 5 = EXPLORING
------------------
Make sure you explore the map as much as you can before setting out.
It's often possible to find quicker paths to the end and you won't
risk losing that many sheep.
HINT 6 = ALWAYS BE ON A LOOKOUT
-------------------------------
Always be on the lookout for hint signs and for other sheep that
will assist you in your efforts.
CHAPTER ELEVEN: GAME CHEATS
===========================
To cheat in Sheep press ESC during gameplay and type any of these
cheats:
IWANTTHEMALLANDIWANTTHEMNOW = Sheep will follow you
FATSHEEP = Sheep grow to 150% of their size
MINISHEEP = Sheep shrink to half of their normal
size
POOSHEEP = Pastoral Sheep Poo instead of Graze
CANCELCHEATS = Cancel any cheats entered

V. F I N A L W O R D S
============================
So. It isn't so hard, is it. If you finish this game, let me know.
In PC GAMER SLOVENIJA it was marked extrodinary game and the mark was
85%. For 40$ this is a very fun game to play. Too bad there aren't any
multiplayer modes. Well, you have enough work with single player
episodes. This game is worth to try and it is also worth your money.
