TIME TO STEAL SOME SHEEP!

Welcome to the woolly world of the Looney Tunes Sheep Raider game!

You are Ralph Wolf, professional sheep thief, and you’ve been invited to appear on a TV game show (hosted by Daffy Duck) to do what you like best — steal sheep!

Get it right and you’ll be showered with prizes, and all those

sheep will supply you with lamb chops for years. Get

it wrong and that hairy hound Sam Sheep-dog will

give you a big fat paw-powered punching.

So keep it sly, keep it stealthy, and keep your

floppy ears to the ground. Sam Sheep-dog is

on the lookout and those sheep are looking

nice, plump and very stupid. So do you

think you stand a chance?

Ewe bet!

MEET THE CAST

There are loads of crazy characters in Sheep Raider — most of them familiar faces who will be able to help you complete your mission. But that’s just for starters…

You’ll need all your craftiest capabilities to help Ralph Wolf steal all the sheep, because he’s been trying for years and invariably ends up on the wrong side of Sam Sheep-dog’s fist. But maybe this time it’ll be different. He’s the cousin of that other famous loser, Wile E.Coyote, and just like him, he never ever gives up trying. He’s been flattened, blown up, dropped and scraped up, and still he comes back for more…

Game Controls

No one’s seen his eyes since he was a puppy, but somehow he always manages to spot Ralph Wolf before he steals one of his sheep. He’s cool, calm and collected, standing watch over his furry flock with all of his senses on full alert. He doesn’t expect even one sheep to be stolen while he’s on duty, so it’s going to take all of Ralph Wolf’s skills to grab the entire flock!

Sheep

They’re slowish, sheepish, and a bit thick. They’re happy to munch grass all day under the watchful gaze of Sam Sheep-dog, and they won’t even run if they spot Ralph Wolf coming at them with hunger in his eyes. In fact, they can’t see very far at all, so if you’re thinking of luring them away from their woolly mates, you might need to try and appeal to their sense of smell. And remember, they’re also very partial to a nice bit of lettuce.

Walking Steathily

There will be plenty of times when normal walking is just too noisy, so to creep around the place like the sneaky wolf you are, just hold down the Left Ctrl (Stealth) key while you walk.

Running

It’s no good just wandering around at a leisurely pace all the time. When you need to pick up speed, steadily tap the Z (Run) key as you press the arrow keys. When you’re running, you can zoom across crevices and gaps, but don’t stop tapping that Z (Run) key, or you’ll end up as wolf pulp.

Jumping

A single press of the Spacebar (Jump) will make you leap up in the air.

Get a little higher by pressing the Spacebar (Jump) again at the top of

your jump — this will give you a double jump. Combine jumps with the arrow keys to direct yourself.

CONTROLLING THE CAMERA

Rotating The Camera

In a game of stealth like this one, you’ll often need to look around the landscape to decide on your best course of action. Rotate the camera left or right using the A and S (Camera) keys, respectively.

Inside View

To get right inside Ralph’s head and “look” through his eyes, hold down the Left Shift (Inside View) key while using the arrow keys to scan the scene.

TRAINING ZONE

You wouldn’t expect a world-class sheep stealer to hit the heights without a little limbering up first, would you? That’s why Daffy Duck will guide all new players through the Training Zone before the real game begins, so you can get the hang of some of the basics including walking, running and using the camera to get the best view of what’s going on. Make sure you pay attention, or you could find Sam Sheep-dog feeding you a knuckle sandwich sooner than you expected.

Once you’ve completed the Training Zone, you’ll be ready to get into the game. But don’t worry, there’ll be plenty of help along the way when you encounter new objects or when new skills are needed.

THE TV STUDIO

When you’ve finished the Training Zone, you’ll

return to the TV studio where you can enter the next

level. To reach it, go through the open door and press

the Enter (Action) key when prompted. When you

complete a level, a door will appear in the

studio, which takes you back to that

level so you can replay it in the future.

CONTROLLING

Walking

Use the arrow keys to walk around the landscape. This is fine if you don’t need to get anywhere in a hurry, or you don’t need to be especially quiet. If Sam Sheep-dog is on patrol though, you might want to do things a little more stealthily...
