Has anyone else found this mini-game in Warcraft III? It's pretty funny. It isn't a hidden game or anything, it's included in the quests folder in standard game.
You are Uther(I'm not sure if it's him all the time) and you have to dodge plague infenceted sheep that explode on contact...:bomb:
It's good for a break during those all night sessions of undead bashing.
Exploding sheep? That's a new one...
in starcraft you can click the animals a lot and they blow up like a nuke
You didn't know about that? They also had that in WarCraft II. I used to constantly click on the sheep to explode them. It's funny for the first 100 times then it gets really annoying.
No no no, you guys... This is a mini-game in Warcraft III, or rather, a map designed in such a way with events, that the game plays like an arcade style game.
It works like this, you use three keys, two move your character one space to the left or the right, while the third key executes a special attack(killing all the sheep in the field).
You have your paladin at the bottom, while sheep come running from the north towards your paladin. If your paladin is hit, he loses a life. Dodging sheep earns you points, and can give you a special attack. Using the special attack kills all sheep on the field at once, give you points equal to the number of enemies killed times the point modifier(that builds up as you dodge sheep, goes down to 1 when the special attack is used).
There are four different things in the field that runs toward your paladin:
Small sheep: Runs fast, and goes on one trajectory, but can change its trajectory by a few degrees.
Big Sheep: lumbering sheep that move slowly, they also follow the same trajectories as small sheep.
Pigs: Runs fast, and will change its trajectory towards the direction your paladin is in.
Villagers: When your paladin runs into these damsels in distress(as it were), he gets a bonus life.
Now if any of you has read this so far, THIS IS ALMOST NOTHING LIKE THE EXPLODING CRITTERS THING FROM WARCRAFT II AND STARCRAFT. Its a fun little arcade style game that demonstrates the versatility of Warcraft III's map editing tool. Well, it does involve exploding critters, but not from clicking them.
:lol:
This i gotta see!!
You explained that so much better than I did. This is really a cool little game, I don't know about exploding sheep, I never played the other games. I'm not sure if they explode in the game itself when clicked on. This is kinda like ummn, *insert game here*
( there has to be some puzzle game where you move your guy dodging stufff falling from above)
Anyway check it out, it's more fun than a barell of exploding sheep. :lol:
