Sheepland

In Sheepland, you and your fellow shepherds will compete to see who's best at tending sheep on the beautiful island that gives the game its name. The idea is simple: move your sheep to the right areas and invest in the terrain types that will yield the most points at the end. Each turn, you have three actions to spend as you wish: move your shepherd, move a sheep, or buy a terrain tile. But pay attention: you must move the shepherd at least once and cannot repeat the same action twice in a row without moving the shepherd in between. There are six types of terrain, each with five tiles that become more expensive as you buy them. Buying a terrain isn't like claiming land, but rather betting that sheep will end up grazing there. The map is divided into 18 regions, and shepherds move between 'rest stops' on the roads connecting these regions. Each shepherd movement places a fence, blocking that spot forever. This fragments the board and can create a rush for resources! The black sheep is a special piece worth more points and moves semi-randomly, adding an extra spice to the game. In the end, whoever has the most money and the most points from terrains with sheep wins. It's a quick game with interesting decisions and a touch of luck, perfect for those who enjoy abstract strategy with a light and fun theme.
