Black Sheep
Before we actually get to the game, let's first explore what this term means. I, myself, had never stopped to think about where it comes from, and what it truly means. Let's get to the facts.
It all comes down to a genetic phenomenon you can observe in sheep. Occasionally, when a new lamb is born, they inherit a recessive gene that makes their wool black instead of white, which is the most common wool color.
This game will encourage you to work on your math skills all the time because you'll have to account for all your animals. When you add points from your field mats, let each player calculate their own scores. This will be an opportunity for them to learn as they play.
You can learn about different combinations and probabilities by focusing on combining the same types of animals. You can play really well even if you don't know much about Poker, just remember: 5 copies of the same card are better than 4 copies, and so on and so forth. Focus on the 7 possible combinations, and take this opportunity to learn!
The animal miniatures are incredible on their own; besides how beautiful they are, they also clearly indicate how many points you'll have at the end. If you pay attention to them as you play, your expectations will grow throughout the game and make everything more exciting.
Black Sheep is a lot of fun, as well as a lesson in math, management, and strategy!
I highly recommend Black Sheep for your collection!
