    Sheepo is a charming game, although its lack of variety in environments means it might outstay its welcome as the end draws near. Its gameplay is enjoyable and easy to pick up, however, and the fact there’s no combat makes this a great starting point for anyone new to the Medtroidvania genre. If you’re looking for a quirky adventure, Sheepo is worth picking up, but just don’t expect too much substance.

    Sheepo has a nice concept; steal eggs for science, shapeshift into creatures and solve puzzles in a metroidvania world. It’s notable for its combat-free gameplay in a genre that often sticks a blaster in your hand. However, it never really rises above the formulaic to fulfil its potential, and it lacks content past the five hour initial run.

Charming game idea, graphically okay, it started out annoying (no translation, starts *every time* in windowed mode) and then just frustrated too quickly, since when you were in danger you had to react very quickly to get out of the situation alive. I missed the relaxing factor of other 2D platformers.
    I can understand why the game has good reviews on the whole - but for me there is simply a huge offer in the genre - where other representatives simply captivate me more from the start.    … Full Review »
