Baa Jam: How to Play the Sheep Puzzle
Learn how to move flocks, match gates and plan around the sunset in Baa Jam.
Move the whole flock
Drag a flock across open squares. Its sheep move together as one shape; fences, obstacles and other flocks block the way.
Look at the space the entire shape needs, not just the sheep nearest the gate. Leave a clear path before you slide.
Match the gate
Guide each flock toward the gate of its own colour. The flock must fit through the opening; watch its shape as you line it up.
A flock that leaves opens space for the others. If a path is blocked, try moving another flock aside first.
Plan before sunset
Clear every flock before the sun sets. Look for an exit you can open and a safe place to park a blocking flock.
The sun waits for your first move, so study the board before you start. Using a booster also starts the timer.
Some sheep bring extra rules: a ram follows its arrows, while a shaggy flock reveals its colour when a neighbouring flock leaves. Read the board before committing to a route.
Learn from a real board
The Level 10 walkthrough shows an actual eight-move solution. Follow the board after each move to see how temporary parking opens a route.
Start with Undo
Each level starts with three Undo uses for reversible moves. If a move closes a route, step back and look for a different place to park the flock; some actions cannot be undone.
Before spending a booster, check whether a different order can clear the blockage. Watch the Level 10 solution for an example of using space deliberately.
Sunshade: buy thinking time
Sunshade holds the sun still for a few seconds. It gives you time to look over the board; it does not move a flock for you.
Shears: change a difficult sheep
Shears can trim a merino coat, a ram’s horns or a shaggy’s locks. Consider which sheep is blocking the route before choosing where to use it.
Sheepdog: clear a colour
Sheepdog herds every flock of one colour home at once. Look for a colour whose removal makes space for the remaining flocks.
Keep resources for the right moment
Boosters arrive as you progress, with free uses to try. Coins come from winning levels; check the in-game offer before spending, since prices and offers can change.
If the sun sets, you can retry the level. A fresh look at the order can be more useful than rushing the same move again.
