About the game
Sheep Hop is playable as a team or solo, from 5 years old. In this cooperative game, bring the sheep back to the sheepfold without them being caught by the wolves! Cross the obstacles that line the meadow, and especially beware of the wolves patrolling! Logic, reflection and mutual aid will bring as many sheep as possible to safety! An evolving game, with several levels of difficulty, based on a game of checkers mechanics, which allows the sheep to chain epic movements across the board and its obstacles.

Questions and answers
Sheep Hop! supports 1–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Sheep Hop! is 15 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Sheep Hop! for ages 5 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Sheep Hop! has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game.
