There are some games that just don’t click with people. I am not someone who has played Worms, but every time I talk about Sheep Squad, I get told that it is ‘just like Worms’. I have, however, played games where you launch weapons at other people, trying to kill them!
When it comes to the individual levels, there are a variety that you end up randomly playing on. These levels often have obstacles and place the two teams far apart from each other. There also are often traps - bombs that can be hit or mines that need to be jumped over, for example. There are also balloons holding power-ups like more health or weapons you don’t have like bombs. When it’s your turn, you have 30 seconds to select one character, move around, and fire once.
It’s just that the UI doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me and the levels themselves are somehow self explanatory. Speaking of the UI, if your main character has died, you will need to select your other character from the top of the screen, at the start of your turn, as fast as possible as the timer (which isn’t displayed until you select the next character) just isn’t shown. I have no idea who made this decision, but it just feels unfair. Default to the playable character please!
You do get chests when you win levels, though as you play more and more you will need to wait longer and longer from activating them, and without premium purchases, you will be seeing many items in your chest that you “missed out on!” by not having that premium pass. If you are thinking about giving this game to a kid, make sure that they can’t spend money on their own, as there are plenty of ways for them to spend it!
