Cool Herders is a multiplayer puzzle game that combines the best of Super Bomberman and Chu Chu Rocket . The objective is to collect more sheep than your opponent, using magic staffs to stun them or yourself. Power-ups such as shoes for faster movement and lightning for longer-range blasts can be collected to gain an advantage.
The game features both multiplayer and single-player modes. In the single-player mode, you'll face off against non-player-controlled characters in puzzle stages with timed elements. These stages require you to find specific items within a set time limit or collect as many sheep as possible before the clock runs out.
