Every Sunday; you and your relatives meet at your dear Aunt Dolly’s place for tea and cupcakes.Dolly is a mad-keen knitter; whipping up a cosy garment every week. It's your job to supply her with the wool from her flock of happy sheep; the fleece of four sheep will meet her needs.However; she only wants wool of one colour- either black or white. And since her sheepdog Fang ran off with a Bichon Frise last year; those four sheep will need to be within arms reach for you to gather them in.Will you be the one who gathers the four sheep first; thereby winning Aunt Dolly’s biggest smile- and the biggest scone?Happy Sheep is a fast; fun game of strategy; memory and bluffing. It takes 15 seconds to set up; two minutes to learn; and five minutes to stop laughing when you trick someone into crying Happy Sheep and proving they don’t know black from white.Includes strategies for gamers and a simple variant for very young kids.How to play:Mix the 20 tiles (10 black; 10 white) face down and form them into a 4x5 flock. On their turn; a player slides out one tile and looks at it. If it's one of the 4 show-off sheep; they show everyone and put it back in the same place. Otherwise; they may rejoin the sheep to the flock face-down wherever they please.As soon as any player thinks they know where four sheep of the same colour are in a 2x2 group; they yell Happy Sheep and turn over the four tiles. If they're right; they win; if not; they're out and play continues.It sounds simple; but with other players moving tiles; bluffing and sabotaging; it's easy to get beaten to the win or tricked into calling incorrectly.For strategic players; the backs of the tiles come in with and without daisies; so by some careful calculation it is possible to improve your decisions...
