Tower Defense Game Save Our Sheep Offers Crisp 3D Visuals

June 30, 2011
A brand new tower defense game has been released and it's called Save Our Sheep. Like a previous tower defense title called Dungeon Defenders, this game has been designed using Epic's Unreal Engine 3 technology and it offers great 3D visuals. Wolves are trying to break into a farm and eat all of the sheep left there in the care of a young boy while his father is away. It is your job to help the boy fend off these wolves and secure the herd's safety. To do this you will need to use various tools at the boy's disposal; like a rake, to knock these wolves senseless and away from the farm. Save Our Sheep's visuals look almost identical to Dungeon Defenders. Since it uses the same graphics engine that isn't a big surprise. The screen looks a bit cluttered as well. One of the big complaints about Dungeon Defenders was the cluttered icons getting in the way of the action. The main thing that separates this title from Dungeon Defenders and other tower defense titles seems to be the charming storyline and farm setting. The game features four different seasons that are showcased visually as the player progresses, according to the app description. This is a nice breath of fresh air and should change the landscapes quite a bit. Here is Save Our Sheep's full feature list (from the app description):
  • various game props
  • The first tool the young boy gets is his father’s rake which could be lifted high to hit the wolves, or knock the wolves away like golf shots. Using the rake skillfully is the most convenient way to beat back the wolves. In this game, the key to using the rake is sliding your fingers from the top down, there would be chances that the wolves would be stunned. Then slide the rake from the bottom up to konck the wolves away. With the deepening of the game, the young boy could also find tools like bomb barrel, shepherd dog, pump, rattrap, barrier, pesticide sprayer, and even high voltage tower, corn harvester, ice maker etc⋯(sic)
  • exquisite images
  • It’s a long run fighting with the wolves. The game includes ten scenes of differenet styles, and goes through four seasons, which are all well designed by professional art team. (sic)
  • next-epoch 3D rendering image
  • Developed with the prestigious 3D rendering engine, UDK, this game will bring the players unprecedented gaming experience. (sic)
    Save Our Sheep is available as a universal application on the App Store for $2.99.
