Here are a few of the rejects:īut what really ties this downy duvet together is its music and sound effects. In coming up with a goose-based pun for the title card of this review’s video, we made so many terrible goose jokes that it felt morally wrong to let them go to waste. Messing up can still throw a monkey wrench in your plans (especially in an area like the pub, which has a bouncer who will shoo you outside), but there are no “Goose Over” screens to fear, and I wouldn’t really want that any other way. Getting caught with an object simply makes you drop it, which can often result in a hysterical back and forth as you nab something out of a person’s hand over and over.

Thankfully, there is a delightful lack of consequence or urgency in most areas, letting you take your time, mess up, and experiment as you refine your bill-based terror. Granted, a goose grabbing a full-size pumpkin with its beak doesn’t exactly sound like it would be the most elegant thing in the world, but incorrectly highlighting one item to grab because it was just a little too close to another could sometimes waste precious seconds and cause my carefully laid gardener traps to go to waste. However, it can be a tad frustrating at times that grabbing objects with your beak is a little less precise than you’d want it to be for a game that requires some speed and accuracy to avoid being thwarted by a pesky human. You can flip through some screenshots from Untitled Goose Game below: Not every task is like this, but I loved that many of the solutions I came up with could feel unique to me. Another early one asks you to get the gardener wet, which can be accomplished in a number of different ways that I won’t spoil (simply because there are relatively few objectives overall, so spelling this one out would give away a large percentage of them). While a task like “Rake in the Lake” lacks wiggle room for how you can go about crossing it off your list, many of the others thrive off of flexibility, improvisation, and creative problem solving. It’s hard to describe the strange pleasure Untitled Goose Game elicited as I let out triumphant victory honks while the gardener stood on the edge of the water shaking his head in frustration. Being an asshole goose is just a ton of fun, so even the silly simplicity of a task obscurely called “Rake in the Lake” was enough to send me into a honking fervor as I excitedly stole and dragged a poor old gardener’s rake into the dang lake. I loved just about every maniacal task I was given, all of which are as weird as they are clever. Who wrote this list? That much is unclear, but we know whoever did has a special kind of hatred in their heart. Slowly creeping up behind an unsuspecting sap who is holding an item you need or using strategically placed walkie-talkies to lure some mook away with HONKs never failed to make me laugh.Īnd this goose’s to-do list apparently consists entirely of being a total jerk to the people who live in its cute little town for reason beyond “because goose.” The foul deeds required of you can range from stealing food for a picnic to nabbing a gardener’s keys off his belt to untying a little boy’s shoelaces, scaring him until he runs away and trips, then quickly stealing his glasses and letting him blindly search the ground until you bring him the wrong pair back. It’s not an exaggeration to compare it to the likes of Hitman or Metal Gear Solid, just with goose-based shenanigans replacing all that icky murder. Even the biggest asshole of a goose has to be sneaky at times, hiding in bushes or in boxes as you wait for the right time to rush out and cause mayhem. Much of Untitled Goose game genuinely feels like a stealth game.
