Battle Sheep
Opposing sheep herds are battling to secure the most pastureland in a strategy game that your whole family will love. Battle Sheep's tactical gameplay requires a player to think through his moves at least two steps ahead, or the open pasture will quickly become filled with rival sheep, and he will be fenced out. Using both offensive and defensive moves, the player who captures the most pasture space wins the game.
Easy to learn and easy to play without being easy to win. Battle Sheep's ever-changing pasture boards allow for different and unique game playing areas each time. Your students can play several games in less than an hour, providing them multiple opportunities to apply new strategies from their previous game. A very durable game with high-quality components, Battle Sheep's 16 pasture boards are made of laminated card stock. The 64 sheep tokens are made of thick plastic.

”My grandkids love playing Battle Sheep, to be sure, but they’d be hard-pressed to outmatch my own children’s enthusiasm for the game — or my own! We’ve played every single day since the package arrived on our front porch.”

”This game may look like a child's game but it can definitely get pretty intense when played by competitive players. For the younger child, this is a great way to introduce your child to strategy. ”
