Gameplay

The player controls a UFO ("The Flocker") and is tasked with herding farm animals (sheep, cows, chickens, and pigs) back to the mothership, "The Mother Flocker". This is challenging due to the hazardous environments the animals exist in – the players must defend their flock against hungry predators, avoid pits of death, and send their animals flying with catapults. There are 55 single-player levels that span across three seasons: summer, autumn, and winter. There is also a cooperative play mode.^[4]

Extensibility

The game provided access to the same map editor the developers used to make the official levels, so players could make their own puzzles. Players could share maps with others via a persistent map server. PC and PS3 users could share maps between the two platforms.^[4]
