Operation Sheep Defense

Operation Sheep Defense is a tower defense game in which you protect sheep from enemies trying to capture them. Place and upgrade defensive towers to stop enemy units from reaching the sheep, and take down any enemies carrying captured sheep before they escape.

Levels and enemy tactics

The game has over 80 campaign levels, each taking around 6 minutes. Levels range from open areas and mazes to maps with multiple entrances and small, fast-paced layouts. Later levels can send over 3,000 enemy units into a level in under 6 minutes.

Enemy behavior is not scripted: units and bullets are simulated, and enemies try to avoid towers rather than simply taking the shortest route. Bulldozers can create new roads, changing the routes enemies take. You need to adapt your approach to each level, and in open areas you can shape the path enemies follow toward the sheep.

Build your defenses

You can construct seven kinds of tower, each with its own strengths and weaknesses, and upgrade them to improve their effectiveness:

• Small cannon: a cheap option for early defense, but not very effective.
• Gattling gun: more effective against all kinds of enemies and useful against stronger units.
• Rocket launcher: deals heavy damage to larger units and bosses.
• Laser tower: best for stopping the fastest enemies.
• Slowdown tower: stalls enemies to make your other towers more effective.
• Flame thrower: attacks large groups of enemies.
• Big gun: slow but powerful, with a range that can cover almost the entire map.

Local co-op

Local multiplayer lets you play on one screen or TV. You can play the entire campaign in co-op or take on co-op missions; many levels are adjusted and rebalanced for co-op. The economy can be shared, individual or reversed between players.

Other features

The game also includes level challenges, a level editor, long-range weapons, pause and fast-forward options, and nine sheep.
