Realm Shepherd

Realm Shepherd puts you in the role of an intergalactic wyvern tasked with rescuing lost animals after a cosmic catastrophe. Your mission is to collect creatures scattered across a procedurally generated, random map that changes every single time you play, shrouded in fog. You must deliver these animals to the correct black holes indicated by an on-screen arrow—before the 240-second timer runs out. The clock is ticking, and if you fail, these animals have no chance of escape.

How to Play

1. Collecting Animals Approach animals on the map to pick them up. Each creature has its own rarity (common, uncommon, rare, epic  and legendary) which directly affects your score. You can carry multiple animals at once, but the added weight can make maneuvering more challenging.

2. Delivering Animals Once you grab an animal, you’ll see a guiding arrow that points to the black hole where it needs to be delivered. Successfully drop off the animals at their respective black holes to gain points. Your main objective is to rescue as many creatures as possible and maximize your score before time runs out.

Scoring

Your score increases with every successful delivery. Rarer animals yield higher points, so planning which animals to pick up first can significantly impact your final tally.
