Description

It is a game for two players.

The dog is faster than the sheep.
The sheep are always still, grazing.
When the dog gets near the sheep they start running along with him. As soon as the dog moves away they stop and start to graze again.

-Each player has one sheep dog and sixteen sheep, white or black.

-The dog is placed on the cross next to the player, the cross is also next to the sheepfold in which he has to introduce his sheep.

-The sheep, the bigger the flock gets, are more difficult to be moved by the dog in the way that:
The dog moves up to 5 squares in any direction.
Sheep can only be moved by the dog horizontally or vertically, never diagonally, in the following way:
Dog (alone) up to 5 squares
Dog + 1 sheep up to 4 squares
Dog + 2 sheep up to 3 squares
Dog + 3 sheep up to 2 squares
Dog + 4 sheep or more up to 1 square

The dog can join and leave the sheep as many times as he likes as long as he does not move more than the total number of 5 squares.

"up to" means that there is no need to move the total number of allowed movements if one does not want to.

A dog can only move sheep of his own sheepfold. The other sheep ignore him and will not move no matter how loud it may bark! They will just stay still, grazing.

The player that first gets all his sheep in his sheepfold is the winner.
