Catch every falling egg. Guide the wolf, survive four hen houses, and chase 999 on the classic 1984 LCD arcade. HOW TO PLAY Move the wolf between four corners and catch eggs rolling down from the hen houses. Miss one and you take a penalty. When the hare peeks in, a miss counts as only half โ€” use that window to recover. TWO MODES โ€ข Game A โ€” three active lanes. Learn the rhythm. โ€ข Game B โ€” all four lanes. Full speed. โ€ข Eggs get faster the longer you last. โ€ข Every 100 points the pace dips, then climbs again. WHY PLAY โ€ข Authentic vintage LCD look and beep โ€ข One-thumb controls, instant rounds โ€ข Works offline โ€” no account, no tutorial โ€ข Personal high-score chase โ€ข Optional one-time purchase to remove ads This is the pocket arcade millions grew up with: four corners, rising speed, and a score that only goes up if you never miss. Pick it up for one round. Stay for the record. Can you reach 999? Catch the eggs. Beat your best.

About

Counting Sheep

Features
Read full description

Train your brain by counting sheep. How many levels are there? There is a total of six levels. Below are the details of each level: Level 1 - Pen Introduces the mechanics of the game. Level 2 - Two-Way Pen Sheep can enter and leave the pen. Players will have to count the number of sheep left in the pen. Level 3 - Signpost Sheep can follow or not follow the signpost. Players will have to count the number of sheep that followed the signpost as well as those that don't. Level 4 - Trucks Each truck will release a different number of sheep. Players will have to remember them all. Level 5 - Coats Built on the previous level, the sheep coming down from the trucks will have coloured coats. Players must also take the colour of the coats into consideration. Level 6 - Cottages Sheep will move in between three cottages. Players must remember the final sheep count of each cottage. How long does each level last? Each level (except for the first level which is shorter) takes around ten minutes to complete, so the game can be finished in an hour. However, this is assuming the player gets most of the answers correct, so in actual fact the game might take a couple of hours to complete.
