YMMV / Sheep, Dog 'n' Wolf

Go To

  • Awesome Music: The soundtrack is an absolute gem full of jazz and blues. It's not what would immediately come to mind for a game like this, but it is great nonetheless.
  • Catharsis Factor: Despite being your mentor throughout the game, Daffy will actually impede you in your mission in Level 9 where he will keep changing the sign to Rabbit Season once you put on the rabbit costume (due to mistaking you for Bugs Bunny). Thus, it will be all the more satisfying when you plant a mine near him or the sign so when he touches it, the shockwaves will go off and knock him out for the rest of the level.
  • Critical Dissonance: Not the game itself, but the soundtrack. At the time of release, the funk/jazz styled soundtrack was touted as a negative in reviews for being unfitting for a Looney Tunes game. However, fans generally like the soundtrack for being well-composed and memorable and it's generally remembered as one of the positive aspects of the game.
  • Funny Moments:
    • The fact you can use dynamite on any of the characters who isn't a sheep. Try planting one behind Sam in Level 1 to make him chase you once it sets off. In Level 9, you are even encouraged to knock out Daffy by blowing him up a mine to keep him from changing the sign from Duck Season to Rabbit Season, in contrast to other levels where he will call you out and punish you with a time-out.
    • If you fly around Sam with the rocket or manage to get to a place out of reach in his area while he is chasing you, he will run around aimlessly with no hope in catching you.
  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: The game is popular in Latin American communities, possibly helped by the fact the game included a Spanish dub option on PS1 (Albeit in Spanish from Spain), and even a Brazilian Portuguese dub in the PC version, eliminating the language barrier.
  • No Problem with Licensed Games: Not only is this classified as one of the best Looney Tunes licensed games, but it's also a classic of the PS1 library despite its late release. This is especially impressive considering the PS2 was already out by the time the game was released, proving the PS1 still had some good games left in it.
  • That One Boss: Gossamer is a very difficult Puzzle Boss. It can take quite a while before you even realize what you have to do.
  • Underused Game Mechanic: This game has a gameplay mechanic where you can keep running in the air for a few seconds after running off a cliff (in a typical Looney Tunes fashion). This mechanic isn't put to any practical use anywhere outside the tutorial.
