Sheeps

Released in the magazine Spielerei No. 5. Each player receives 6 playing pieces of the same color, representing the sheeps and a differently colored playing piece, representing a dog. With help of their dogs the players try to chase the sheeps into their enclosure. The sheeps start the game on their starting spaces. The dogs are in their kennels. A player's turn consists of two actions: Firstly, he moves his dog one space in any of the eight directions. Secondly, he moves all sheep standing on one of the orthogonal or diagonal lines away from his dog. The first player with all his sheep in his enclosure wins the game.
