"Its smart, its pretty... what makes it shine is the dark comedy found in killing cartoon animals just to satisfy some arbitrary numerical requirements." - 8/10 by DESTRUCTOID

Divide By Sheep is a math puzzler about the Grim Reapers devious plan to make some sheepy friends. Grim can only befriend the dead, so he decided to unleash a great flood and drag the sheep under. Now stranded on small islands and sinking fast, the sheep need you to help them reach safety.

It plays similar to classic counting games with dark humor where you need to cross a road or river, and cant have specific combinations of sheep, wolves, etc on the same raft. Here though the results are intentionally filled with gore and blood (unless you turn it off in the settings). Its a funny, dark math puzzle game.

You save the little animals by solving clever math puzzles. Divide By Sheep is a game of addition and subtraction by any means possible, where puzzles start off fairly easy and playful, yet quickly escalate in both difficulty and dark humor.

Pros and cons of Divide By Sheep app for iPhone and iPad

Divide By Sheep app good for

If you love puzzle games, this one comes highly recommended. The animated characters are super cute, animations are smooth and polished, the challenge is progressive and refreshing. Two thumbs up!
Love the game mechanics and how many new ones keep getting introduced. The characters are super cute and dumb looking, which is always a plus!
This is a very fun, colorful and adorable game! I love the way the game plays out and the different platforms really keeps the game interesting
Very fun addicting gameplay! The artwork is so cute and the levels are well designed, I look forward to playing the variety of many levels!
Fun and challenging. It starts easy and trains you at a good speed. It gets quite difficult at times but worth the effort for the thrill of getting all 3 stars.
Clever gameplay and cute characters with just the right amount of quirky dark humour.

Some bad moments

Really liked the game. Now when I try opening it I only get a blue screen and nothing happens.
This game was a great way to burn time with its puzzles that make you think, and plus seeing the occasional sheep being split in half. 10/10 even though there arent ten stars
Im just seeing a light-blue screen when launching the app on the iPad Air 2 (iOS 8.4). Game looks fun, but I would like to be able to play it first. Please fix. Thank you.
Awesome game! Really challenging and fun! Only problem is that there is this glitch that makes the screen go blue and doesnt let me play. Please fix!
I went in unsure, but I was surprised on how it made me think so hard. There is a major problem in the game though, I finished it.
So much fun!! Lots to keep you entertained wanting to get those 3 stars. Only wish is that instructions were more clear - the pictures of what the different objects / platforms are supposed to do isnt always easy to understand.
