Stubborn Sheep

Spring has arrived in the Scottish Highlands, and it’s shearing season! Compete to herd wandering sheep back to their barns. By cleverly placing fences – sometimes on your own land, sometimes on your rivals’ – you send the sheep trotting left or right across the fields. Sheep you capture grant bonuses, helping you catch even more!

Players aim to collect sets of sheep of the same colour in their own stable fields. By scoring sheep the player earns small bonusses to be used in future rounds.
On your turn, you place one fence on top of an existing fence anywhere around the table — either on one of your own fences or on an opponent’s. Each fence shows arrows indicating which sheep colours jump to the left and which jump to the right when that fence is activated.
After placing a fence, you immediately activate it and move the indicated sheep. Then, you also activate your own fence or fences that have not yet been activated this turn.

Stubborn Sheep, Greedy Grabbers, and Coaster Clash are part of the successful Kickstarter campaign Amsterdam Board Game Design season 3. Amsterdam Board Game Design is a group of international designers who test prototypes almost every week in Amsterdam and in Utrecht.
