[edit] Characters
[edit] Ralph Wolf
Ralph has been trying to steal sheep for years, but he's constantly been foiled by Sam Sheep-dog. He's the cousin of Wile E. Coyote, and just like him he never gives up. Ralph has been invited onto Daffy Duck's TV game show, and the aim of the game is to steal as many sheep as possible.
[edit] Daffy Duck
Daffy is the host of the gameshow Sheep, Dog 'n' Wolf. He also acts as your guide throughout the game, appearing in numerous guises.
[edit] Sam Sheep-dog
Sam stands watch over his flock of sheep with his sense on full alert. He is constantly foiling Ralph's plans, and it will take all of Ralph's skills to sneak past him and steal all the sheep from right under his nose.
[edit] Sheep
The sheep are slow and stupid. They're perfectly happy to just munch grass all day under the watchful gaze of Sam Sheep-dog, in fact they are so stupid that if they see Ralph they won't even run away! They have a keen sense of smell though and are rather partial to a nice bit of lettuce.
