SheepTag: Dragons

Asymmetric hide-and-seek

SheepTag: Dragons is a team-based hide-and-seek game on PC, and a spiritual successor to the Warcraft III mod Sheep Tag. Dragons and wizards take opposing roles: the dragons build a lair and try to survive, while the hunters search for and capture them. Dragons get time to prepare before the hunters are released, but a well-built base can also give hunters a clue about where to look.

Building and escaping

As a dragon, you choose a place for your lair, build defenses, and decide when to stop improving it and move. You can stay to hold a hunter’s attention while a teammate escapes, or leave before your location is discovered. During a chase, breaking line of sight, doubling back, and saving an ability for the right moment can buy time.
