Shepherds and Wolves is a handcrafted board game for 2 players. It's easy to learn and tests your defensive and offensive game strategies. This game is great for the young, old, and in between. My 5-year-old daughter loves playing the game. Gameplay takes place in a lovely meadow. Shepherds work to rid the meadow of wolves. Wolves work to rid the meadow of sheep. The shepherds are slow, but they are persistent. They can move at most three spaces as they try to remove all the wolves from the meadow. The wolves cannot harm them. Once the last wolf is removed from the board, the shepherds have won. The wolves move fast and work in a pack. They can move up to 6 spaces as they try to eat all of the nine sheep. Once the last sheep has been eaten, the wolves have won. —description from the publisher
