This article describes the video game Herdy Gerdy. For the musical instrument with a similar name, see Hurdy gurdy.

Herdy Gerdy is a video game for the Playstation 2 released in 2002.

When the evil wizard Sadorf casts a spell on Gerdy's father, the Master Herder Gedryn, Gerdy is determined to save his dad and the magical island that they live on from Sadorf's evil rule.

It has a surprisingly large environment (around 40 different areas) as well as 12 different fictional creatures to herd into their different pens. The game requires strategic thinking as some animals eat the others, some animals cannot jump, some cannot swim and each animal kind requires a separate herding technique.

You have to collect a variety of herding tools to help you on your way, and there are alternate pathways to reach the end.
