In Wrangle Ranch, you’ll have to frantically lasso your farm animals as they dash across the screen, being careful to avoid predators. This uniquely addicting minute-to-minute gameplay is paired with the endless replay-ability and deep strategy of a roguelike deckbuilder to create a first of its kind barn-builder roguelike! Drawing inspiration from the likes of Fruit Ninja and Balatro, this genre-bending score-a-thon will have you playing just ‘one more round’ until the cows come home. Explore countless game breaking boons, over a dozen unique animals, and plenty of powerful farmers. If you still aren’t convinced, perhaps the quaint hand drawn pixel art, super catchy bluegrass soundtrack, or the sad pleading eyes of the farm animals will be enough to seal the deal! Lasso your livestock, build your barn, climb the difficulty levels and see how long you can survive in Wrangle Ranch!
