Aug 27, 2025I like the idea of Herdling and for the most part it does work well, trotting along behind the beasts is wonderfully relaxing. The herding mechanism lets things down, as does the repetition of the dangers, especially when the game is only four hours long. One to play on a rainy Sunday afternoon.

Aug 21, 2025A delightful sojourn in bleakly beautiful landscapes, that has you steering a herd of giant yak-like beasts while gently wrestling with controls that aren’t afraid to embrace the organic waywardness of your charges.

Aug 24, 2025Herdling is a charming and emotionally engaging game where players guide horned creatures through beautifully crafted landscapes, using simple mechanics and thoughtful design. While the journey is mostly delightful, minor technical issues and a somewhat familiar ending may leave seasoned fans of Okomotive’s previous titles wanting more.
