![]() The seamlessness of its small-village setting is a large part of what makes Untitled Goose Game (I feel obligated to add that it is subtitled “Mischievous Goose is Comin’!” in Japanese) a great one-session game, but the other great trick of Untitled Goose Game is that there is no game-over state: You can beat the game, but can’t die or otherwise cease to be while playing through it, and there is almost no penalty for failing whatever plan you might attempt to pull off. ![]() Waiting for the goose game groundskeeper to wipe his brow so I can honk at him and spook him into dropping his hat so I can steal it and hide it and accomplish my objective, which is forcing him to wear his other hat /xruVgPxUQR- jalapeno pauper September 21, 2019 It’s a game that lets you amble down the sidewalk and through holes in fences to dish out benign harassment. There’s a quaint town square, for instance, but traveling through the alley behind it takes you to two bickering neighbors. Part of the reason for this is that the game is structured as a single piece of land, with small sections in it, and they all seamlessly blend together, providing little slices of life. It’s a deceptively simple formula that never wears thin, and the best way to play Untitled Goose Game is in a single two-hour sitting. In one early puzzle, honking at just the right time startles a gardener into driving a hammer down on his own thumb. ![]() ![]() Your main task, in almost every scenario, is to steal something from the townspeople or trap them in a room. Using these two actions, the player controlling the goose causes havoc in a small countryside town, indirectly driving the townspeople through the environment as they chase the goose around, trying to repair the damage. The main two are picking stuff up with your beak and honking. The premise is fairly straightforward: You control a goose and can perform a handful of actions. Or, if you prefer, the goose’s self-centered approach represents the winner-take-all philosophy necessary to thrive in an unrepentantly capitalist age. The goose’s disrespect for private property has turned it into a leftist icon. Maybe for you, Goose is a casual game that you can complete in a couple of hours, or maybe Goose heralds a new era of deep, goose-based stealth action like Metal Gear or Hitman. Like a meme template, the goose is whatever you want it to be. People think game development means you get to play games all day, but they're wrong - it means you talk about geese /I8XvTWy7b1- Michael McMaster August 11, 2016 Even the game’s inception was largely arbitrary, a nonsense Slack chat in which the developers pointed out their favorite goose attributes based on a stock-photo prompt. Its absence of explicit motivation or an even vaguely descriptive title gives players license to graft whatever worldview they want onto their goose. The game, released on Friday, has captured hearts and minds with its simple premise: You are a goose, and your job is to make life hell for everyone around you. People are going nuts for Untitled Goose Game, which is, to be clear, a game for PC and Nintendo Switch in which you play as a goose.
