Overview

You are a shepherd in the French Alps where wolves are becoming a problem, chasing your sheep away from your pasture. It is up to your reliable hound to go find your lost sheep and bring them back! Wolf & Hound is a partnership card game of protecting your flock of sheep from hungry wolves. Each turn you play a number card that controls the movement of the wolf or the hound. Where the wolf or the hound moves determines the fate of your sheep. If wolf is in your pasture at the start of your turn, then the wolf chases away one of your sheep; if a hound is in your pasture at the start of your turn, then the hound brings back the lost sheep. Move them wisely to protect you and your partner's sheep, and chase away your opponent's sheep!
