Space rancher is a rather simple and rather addictive game. You have to protect your 'sheep' from evil attacking aliens. You do this by flying around with your jet pack dropping bombs on them.
The controls and physics for jet pack are similar to those for one of those old lunar lander games. This coupled with the fact that you have to drop bombs on the evil aliens are what make it difficult and fun.
The longer you and your sheep can stay alive the more score you get. You can submit this score over the net.
This truly is an uninspired piece of gaming. I have to admit it is fun for the first few minutes but very soon you'd rather spend eternity sitting in a chair till your legs go numb than play this for another few seconds. Do not download this awful, awful game. "Worst game ever!"
