Sheep Sheep! is an endless match-3-style and sorting game with a sheep, livestock and farm theme. The player's goal is to clear away all tiles from a grass backdrop on each level until they finish the game. If they lose the game at any time, they must start over from the first level unless they're willing to perform a task to revive their play. The game's developers warn on the home screen that "only 0.01% can win."�
The player starts with a small pattern of layered tiles. The complexity of the patterns and the number of different types of tiles increase with each new level. The player also receives an area of seven spaces below the tiles, designed to help them reveal lower layers of a pattern and sort tiles into sets of three. They select tiles on the playfield for distribution to these spaces.�
When the player transfers three matching tiles to the spaces, the game automatically removes the set. Common initial tiles display images of grass, shears, stumps, buckets, haystacks, bells, gloves, yarn balls and wool puffs.
Sheep Sheep! features tools designed to help the player perform matches faster. If the player agrees to view videos, they can redo the level, remove tiles and reveal random matches. If they lose by filling all seven spaces with tiles, they can revive and continue with uninterrupted play by watching a video.
