The Free Shepherd is an atmospheric adventure where you are a sheepdog in a mystical world, searching for your lost sheep.
A sweeping adventure painted with soft light, shifting weather, and cinematic motion.
Every run, leap, and tail-wag flows through handcrafted landscapes that feel alive from the first step.
Drift through open worlds shaped by mood and mystery.
Wind in the grass, distant bleats, rain over stone. The terrain, sound, and lighting wrap you in a quiet spell as you search for your flock.
Control a fully physical, expressive sheepdog built for momentum.
Sprint, skid, swim, dig, bark, and bound across obstacles as you herd massive flocks and follow the trail toward the sheep you’ve sworn to protect.
Beneath the pastoral calm lies something uncanny.
Subtle fantastical forces reshape the world, turning puzzles, environments, and even the flock itself into surprises that deepen the journey.
