Every year, the Gruff sheep will go to sæter. They must cross the bridge when they are ready, and you, the Pomp, must guide them to the other side. 

An allegory for life, death, transhumance, and psychopomps, the sheep will always move forward towards sæter, much like the passage of time itself.

  • Walk up to a tree to automatically collect the resource.
