Magic Sheep Cards

About

A card game where you try and collect three bags of wool. Magic Sheep is a fast-paced, funny, and competitive card game where players race to collect three bags of magical wool before their opponents. Long ago, a powerful storm swept through the land and bestowed magical gifts upon a herd of sheep. These enchanted sheep now roam the pastures, each with unique abilities. Bouncy Sheep can leap to incredible heights, Magic Sheep grow their wool back instantly and can be sheared every turn, Black Sheep provide two bags of wool when sheared, Little Lambs are too young to shear, and the mighty Ram breaks free from the pen and leads the ladies back to the community pasture. In Magic Sheep, two to seven players compete to gather sheep, build their personal pen, and shear enough wool to win. On each turn, players choose to either draw two cards and play one, or draw one card and play two. Cards create a constantly changing game of give and take by allowing players to collect sheep, shear wool, steal from opponents, protect their flock, or send everyone’s sheep back to the community pasture. Players must decide when to grow their herd, when to defend their wool, and when to make a bold move against another player. Throughout the game, players can also draw character cards that provide special abilities to help them on their quest. Characters like the Cowgirl can rope and ride to help distribute cards, the Sheriff can stop thieves in their tracks, and the Rustler can sneak in and steal sheep from other players. With strategy, luck, and plenty of opportunities for playful revenge, every game creates laughter, surprises, and friendly competition. The first player to successfully collect three bags of wool wins the game and earns the title of the greatest sheep herder. With games lasting around 30 minutes or less, Magic Sheep is a quick, entertaining experience filled with magical sheep, clever plays, and just enough chaos to keep everyone guessing until the very end. —description from the publisher
