Description Description
In Sheepdogs of Pendleton Hill, each player takes the role of a sheepdog and uses card play to move flocks of sheep up the hill to the shepherds. The higher a player's sheep gets before meeting its shepherds, the more points he will score. The player who scores the most points wins.

Each player has shepherds to place on the board and sheep to place into flocks and move. Flocks often contain sheep from many players and cooperation can be key to moving a flock into an advantageous position. But how long will this helpful, peaceful pastoral scene last when the cards require players to take actions for other players which can include placing opponents' shepherds in lower scoring areas and moving flocks that do not contain their own sheep? And a hungry wolf ever lurks in the background...

A deck of cards is used by the players to take actions such as placing shepherds, putting sheep into flocks, moving flocks of sheep, and moving the wolf. It is these cards, with their requirement to manipulate other players' pieces, that drive the decisions the players must make in the game and guarantee a high level of interaction among players. Each player also has a Sheepdog wild card for use once per game.

Playtested this several times, plays in under an hour, a lot of fun, enough to get you thinking. Can be played to maximise your points or you can get that wolf moving about eating your rivals sheep, far more fun!!! I can see this getting a lot of play in my gaming groups.

Great game. Fantastic bits. Short game time and plays well from 3 to 5. Not to be taken seriously.

Excellent game. Was involved in playtesting original version (Silver Mountain) which was a hoot. Development and re-theming to Sheepdogs works well. The wolf is brilliant. Easy to learn. Some minor planning required - and much mischief available for backstabbing. Great production value. Game has physical heft factor. Chunky wooden components. ... and the guys at Stratamax are great fun to be in contact with.

Great production, easy enough to play with my 6 year old. Also a nasty, backstabbing affair with adults with a solid layer of strategy. I love this game, and put it up there with Lifeboats and Chicken Ceasar on my "Throne of Hurt Feelings."

I taught it to several beginning gamers (while learning it myself). It went over very well, and everyone wanted to play it again. Definitely strategy is involved. Wonderful components. Quick to learn.
