The "Gotland Minigame", also known as the "Fly! Goto Sheep" minigame (飛べ!ゴトシープ), is an Easter Egg minigame, only accessible via the Inventory menu.

  • By clicking on all 3 flowers next to the fairy on the left of the Inventory menu, the minigame is unlocked.
  • This consists of an "Anti-Air Defense" game, where the Gotland's black ship is thrown to destroy abyssal planes.
  • The game session can be aborted at any time by maintaining the "End Emergency" button on the bottom-left corner.

This mini-game is just here to "kill time", and so is not linked to the rest of the game, neither consuming nor rewarding anything.

  • It is possible to play this game at any time, even during an ongoing maintenance (if the game is not refreshed).
  • Game musics as well as several girls' voicelines are played during the sessions.
  • The minigame was added on the 2020/04/23 update.
    • The 2020/06/19 update added the Extra I, made the Shuusui attack available from the 1st wave, made the sheep glow when taking dow enemies, and added the larger mobile enemies.
    • The 2020/08/27 update added the Extra II
Trivia

The game is a reference to Gotland, the black sheep being her insignia and ingame mascot, and Gotland being historically an "Antiaircraft Cruiser" during the later part of WW2.

Sheep 2

The sheep is thrown using the mouse cursor:

  • It follows a somewhat ballistic trajectory and bounces over the edges and ground.
    • There is no upper sealing, and so it might go very far above the game screen, taking a while to fall back down.
  • It can be picked up mid-air to give it more energy and adjust its trajectory.

Each enemy plane destroyed gives points and increases the combo.

  • Each time the ship lands back on the ground, the combo is reseted.
    • Throwing the ship back before it touches the ground therefore maintains the combo.
  • The amount of points given by enemy takedowns depends on the enemy.
    • Some enemy planes will appear in larger variants, moving across the screen and giving more points.
      • Starting from the 2nd wave, those may explose and deflect the sheep's trajectory.
    • Some special items can also be picked up to bring more points.
    • The combo does not affect the score.
    • Some "baits" also appear randomly on the screen, but cannot be interacted with and do not affect the gameplay.

The "Shuusui button" activates a bonus interception attack, launching the Shuusui and rapidly shooting down many enemies.

  • The number of stars displayed is the number of times it can be activated,
  • One additional Shuusui attack is given per wave.

Sequences

The game is divided in up to 5 "Sequences", and 2 "Extra Sequences", each limited in time.

  • A certain amount of point has to be achieved to reach the next sequence.
  • Once the timer has ended, the sheep stops taking down enemies and comes to a stop.

Once the game has ended, the final score and the corresponding rank are displayed, as well as the player's high-score.

  • The high-score is only recorded for the current game session, and is reseted when closing the game.
  • For the 5 main sequences, each sequence's score is displayed under the sequence's enemy icon, being greyed if the sequence was not reached.

Voicelines

Some girls' voices are played during the mini-game, being from Gotland and a random girl from the 1st fleet.

  • The played voices depends on the curent situation, with "attack lines" played when the score is advancing at a good pace, and "minor damage lines" when the score is advancing at a slow pace.
