The pastures are green and the day is warm. Shepherd Hazel Woof is grazing her sheep peacefully. What could go wrong on this bright sunny day? Little does she know, her sheep could be ambushed at any moment. Poacher Alex McCunning has been luring her sheep to traps he’s made. Fortunately for Hazel, Alex gets spotted and she can now take action. Will she be able to defend her sheep or will Alex steal them away? The fate of the sheep is up to you to decide. Take control of either of the two characters and prepare for a shepherding duel with your opponent. --- Sheeping Around is a multiplayer strategy card game about grazing and stealing sheep. The objective is simple: there's three sheep on the board, and you need to take home or steal two of the three sheep to win. As a shepherd attach graze cards to sheep to graze, and when you're done, use "Whistle" to take them home. As a thief, attach lure cards to sheep to lure them and when they're lured, use "Steal" to steal them away. But the tricky part is all the other cards that make your opponents' lives harder. You can lay traps, guard sheep, reduce graze / lure values and use special bonus cards to your advantage. Add deck-building and card collection, and you get the basic elements of a CCG. All in all, an exciting game that will make you ask your friends, “Will you sheep with me?" --- Key features: * Unique, never-seen-before gameplay mechanics in a tragicomic setting. * Quick 5-10 minute matches: Play on your commute or on the loo! * Smart multiplayer match-making with level based progression. * Challenge your friends and ask them to "sheep" with you!

PolyDice is the dice roller that knows what game you're playing. Unlike generic dice apps, PolyDice renders every die exactly as it looks on the table — geometric shapes with authentic game symbols, not generic dots. Whether you're investigating eldritch mysteries in Mansions of Madness, delving into dungeons in HeroQuest, or rolling a stealth check on a d20, every die looks the part. FEATURES • Geometric dice — d4 through d20 rendered as their real face shapes (triangles, squares, diamonds, hexagons, decagons) • Authentic game symbols — Mansions of Madness 2nd Edition and HeroQuest 1989 dice use actual icon assets, not approximations • Four game modes: – Generic: standard RPG dice (d3, d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20) with numeric results – Mansions of Madness: red d8 dice with Elder Sign / Magnifying Glass / Blank faces and symbol counts – HeroQuest: gold d6 combat dice with Skull / Hero Shield / Monster Shield faces and symbol counts – Mixed Tray: combine dice from different game presets in one roll, with per-preset result breakdown • Multi-remove mode — long-press any die to enter remove mode. All dice show an X button with a subtle wobble. Tap individual X buttons to remove multiple dice at once, tap outside to exit • Selective Reroll — after rolling, tap any dice to highlight them, then reroll only the selected ones. Gold border marks your picks, unselected dice stay put • Step Roll — roll dice one at a time instead of all at once. Perfect for tense skill checks, attack sequences, or any moment where each die matters • Dice sounds — realistic multi-dice and single-die roll audio with randomized pitch variants. Toggle on/off from settings • Up to 9 dice with animated roll (shake, rotation, glow) • Dark minimalist UI — no distractions, just your results PolyDice requires iOS 17 or later.
