About Hubert
Hubert invites players into a northern wilderness seen through the eyes of a shepherd dog. In third‑person view you guide a flock of sheep across varied terrain while weather and hidden dangers test your path.
The narrative follows Hubert and Lily, a sharp‑witted kid, as they build trust, tend the farm, and explore a brush‑painted countryside that hints at mystery beyond the fence.
01 / THE GUIDE
Playing as Hubert
The adventure is presented entirely from Hubert’s point of view, letting players experience movement, scent and instinct as the primary ways the world is perceived.
Hubert’s fluffy, overconfident personality adds humor and drives the player to keep moving forward despite unpredictable situations.
- Watch how Hubert reacts to new scents; they often foreshadow upcoming obstacles.
- Notice the contrast in Hubert’s behavior during calm weather versus harsh weather.
02 / THE GUIDE
The Bond with Lily
Lily, a sharp‑witted kid, joins Hubert after convincing the valley’s grumpiest farmer to give them a job, creating a partnership that develops through shared routines.
Their growing trust subtly influences how scenes feel, especially when the world outside the farm becomes stranger.
- Observe moments when Lily’s actions make herd management smoother.
- Listen for dialogue cues that indicate shifts in their partnership.

03 / THE GUIDE
Herding the Sheep
Players must guide dozens of mildly chaotic sheep across pastures, contending with their short attention spans and the farmer’s low patience.
The core gameplay revolves around keeping the flock together while navigating terrain that can cause the sheep to scatter.
- Plan routes that avoid steep drops; uneven ground tends to disperse the herd.
- Use natural landmarks to maintain orientation for the sheep.
04 / THE GUIDE
Beyond the Fence
Outside the farm, the landscape grows quieter and stranger, hinting at unseen threats that only Hubert seems to sense.
Exploration reveals moments of unease and occasional howling at the moon, adding subtle tension to the adventure.
- Listen for ambient sounds; they often signal approaching danger.
- Compare the visual tone of wilderness areas to farm scenes to notice narrative shifts.
05 / THE GUIDE
Brush‑Painted Visuals
The countryside is rendered in a warm, brush‑painted style that feels inviting on the surface.
This artistic choice also hides moments of mystery and occasional unease, giving the world a cohesive yet distinct look.
- Observe color shifts between day and night; they often highlight narrative beats.
- Notice how the art emphasizes certain objects, which can hint at interactive elements.
