In gameplay based on Empire Interactive's PC and PlayStation title of the same name, players take control of an intrepid sheepdog to herd and corral errant ruminants in this Game Boy Advance title. The wooly charges seem blissfully unaware of the many dangers that await in the fields ahead and it's up to the player's puppy to encourage them in the right direction. As the sheepdog moves toward a sheep, the clueless animal runs away in an opposite direction, "repelled" from the watchful canine like the matching poles of two magnets. From an isometric perspective, players guide their hard working pup across the screen, attempting to "push" the wandering sheep together toward an end point. Areas become more challenging as the game progresses, featuring maze-like paths and dangerous obstacles.
