What Sven - Completely Screwed is about
Sven - Completely Screwed is a cartoony 3D action game where you play Sven, a black ram with a lot of pent-up energy. The goal of each round is to work through the flock of sheep while staying out of sight. Shepherd Lars and his dog Wotan patrol the levels, and if they catch Sven, the run ends right there. The game is presented from an isometric view, which gives you a clear look at where the sheep are waiting and where the danger is coming from. There are 20 levels to get through, and the AI of Lars and Wotan has been revised so that each round asks for a bit of planning rather than just running in blindly. Items scattered around the world can be picked up and used actively through an inventory, which adds another layer to how you approach each situation.
Playing together with friends
The game supports local multiplayer for up to 4 players, so you can sit together on one screen and tackle the levels as a group. There are three game modes: Singleplayer, Co-op, and Versus. In Co-op, you and your friends work together against the flock and the shepherd's watch, while Versus turns it into a competitive setup between players. Remote Play Together is also listed as a Steam feature, which means friends who are not in the same room can join in through that option. The split screen and controller support make it a straightforward pick for a couch session. An online high score list lets you compare your results with players everywhere, though that is separate from the local group play.
Before you start
This is a game with adult humor and sexual content wrapped in a colorful, cartoonish presentation. The tone is comedic and over the top, so it suits groups that do not mind that kind of material. The isometric camera and improved movement are there to help you track the sheep and navigate the world smoothly, but the revised AI of Lars and Wotan means you will need to read the situation before committing. Over 25 different interactions with the sheep are available across the levels, and the inventory items give you active tools to use during a run. It runs with a controller and supports local multiplayer, so setting up a group session is simple once everyone knows the modes.
