Sheep (2000)
Genres:Strategy, Puzzle
Themes:Comedy
Game modes:Single player
Story:Sheep is a combination strategy and puzzle game, featuring light elements of war or battle simulations, built around a wacky story in which space-faring alien explorers from millennia ago devolve into domesticated sheep on Earth. Now their ancestors are trying to round them up by secretly enlisting the aid of two humans (Bo Peep and Adam Half Pint) and two animals (a sheepdog and a pet) through subliminal mind control.
Players take the role of the Earthly "herders" to lead the flocks through six worlds with multiple levels, eventually reaching special rendezvous point where they'll be loaded onto UFOs for the trip back to their home world of Ovis Aries. No direct control is exerted on the sheep so players must manipulate objects and obstacles, as well as rely on the strengths of each herder, to accomplish the tasks. Levels have time limits and a minimum number of sheep to be saved from each flock.Show more

Sheep was my first PC game and one of the first games I ever played. My father had gone on a trip, and when he returned, he gave this game to me and my brother as a gift. Many of my childhood memories revolve around this game.
To this day, I have the entire soundtrack, SFX, characters, and environments engraved in my memory. Everything is so vivid, funny, and full of personality.
It's a shame this game has been forgotten over time. My dream is for it to be re-released someday so I can play it again and relive all those memories.
I swear I don't remember how I came across this game, but I bought it once and had a lot of fun with the crazy story, that the sheep are actually aliens, and want to return to their planet, but need the help of people and dogs selected to serve as shepherds and guide the poor, defenseless sheep around the map. But don't be fooled by its cute appearance, the game is much harder than it seems, even remembering that my record was getting to the last level of the second world, the medieval fair. But it's still a very fun game, which I would love to be able to play again on GOG.

Warzone 2100In the late 21st century, NASDA (the North American Strategic Defense Agency) developed and deployed a massive missile defense system, including a network of nuclear-equipped satellites and ground-based launch sites. However, during a routine maintenance check, something went terribly wrong...
While most of the survivors form scavenger bands to survive, one group of people, who refer to themselves as "The Project", seeks to rebuild civilization using pre-war technology.
Warzone 2100 is a real-time strategy game, originally developed by Pumpkin Studios and published by Eidos Interactive, now developed by the Warzone 2100 Project. Compared to other real-time strategy games, it has a greater focus on artillery, radar, and counter-battery technologies, more frequent in-game cinematic updates as game play progresses, a massive research tree, as well as a vehicle design system.
Outside of the story, Warzone 2100 only has a single faction. This limits some of the variety that can be expected from real-time strategy games, although the single faction is very complex. Essentially, Warzone 2100 plays much like Earth 2150 with 3D units and terrain, customizable vehicles, a lack of traditional infantry, use of "research" to acquire new technologies, and the differentiation of vehicles types.Science fiction
