Overview
Description

Puggsy uses the innovative Total Object Interaction system, letting you manipulate every item in the environment to solve clever puzzles and overcome fast‑paced challenges. The game blends classic platforming with brain‑teasing mechanics as you help Puggsy retrieve his stolen spaceship. A dedicated Junior section offers simplified levels for younger players, making the experience accessible while still delivering the high‑energy action that defines the title.

Sheep blends puzzle solving and strategic herding in a comedic sci‑fi setting. Players guide two human herders, a sheepdog and a pet to manipulate obstacles and guide flocks of alien‑origin sheep through six distinct worlds before loading them onto UFOs for the journey home. Each level imposes a time limit and a minimum rescue quota, demanding clever use of each character’s strengths without direct control of the sheep. The game’s quirky narrative follows the ancient Ovis Aries species trying to reclaim their lost flock from the scheming Mr. Pear, delivering humor and lighthearted battle‑simulation elements throughout the adventure.
