The same goes for the environments, which look very simple but colorful and recognizable, so it is immediately a welcoming place. Except for the lack of facial features, like eyes or a mouth, they look like they're all taken from a children's book. The title is bathed in pastel colors, and every character you meet is drawn rather simply. While this doesn't unlock anything special, it gives you more to do if you can't think of anything yourselves.Īside from the core gameplay, part of the game's charm is in its pleasant presentation. There's also the opportunity to try and speed-run all of the primary objectives in each area before you hear the church bells ring. For example, you can collect all of the flowers in every area and find a basket to put them in, or you can lead the gardener to the town square so he can buy back his trowel. There is an argument that can be made for this being the perfect length, since an overly long journey with the goose can wear thin, but for those looking for more, the game has another set of objectives that spans multiple areas simultaneously. The main questline can be finished in roughly three hours, a running time that will seem very short for fans who want to do more. Like the mayhem itself, this makes the title perfect for both kids and those who hate severe punishments for failure. Objectives only get reset if you break something, and with so few objectives needing a lengthy setup, there's less frustration when something goes awry. Even if you get close to them, the only thing that'll happen to the goose is he'll spread his wings and automatically move away before you regain control. Get caught by almost anyone, and you'll simply be shooed away while they try to fix your messes. The other appealing aspect of the game is how you aren't punished for failure. As a result, the mean-spirited acts done by the goose are relatively safe for both kids and those averse to the violence seen in other titles. Hammering the thumb is probably the most violent thing, and everything that gets done feels more like a mean prank than something outright terrible. The main difference is that nothing you do can be deemed dangerous or malicious. Do this, and the passage to the new area opens up, and you'll be able to inflict more chaos on new, unsuspecting people.Īs you can tell from the above description, the game essentially focuses on perhaps one of the more appealing things about the Grand Theft Auto series: creating mayhem. In this case, it's trying to get the gardener to hammer his thumb. Each place gives you roughly six objectives to complete, but you only need to do five of them for the area's final objective to pop up. Creating a picnic will be more challenging, and trying to get the gardener to wear a new hat might prove tricky. As an example, getting into the opening level in the garden may be a simple task, as will finding a way to get the gardener wet. You can take cricket bats and place them in other people's yards, or you can take the silverware from a restaurant and throw it into a box, or you could scatter tomatoes all over the place.įor progress, Untitled Goose Game gives you a list of things you need to do to gain access to the rest of the village. You can throw a bag of potting soil into a nearby lake or untie a kid's shoelaces. Even with the village split up into small segments, there's plenty that you can do to cause mischief.
Squiggly lines appear near everything you can manipulate, and that means doing things like snatching objects, dragging heavier ones around the world, or simply turning knobs and hitting switches. Without any super powers or other abnormal abilities, this is one of the more normal characters you'll ever play as in a game.įor the most part, you'll use your abilities to make everyone's lives miserable, a task that is easily accomplished by the fact that you can interact with just about everything around you. You can lower your head, extend your wings, and use your beak to manipulate everything around you, but you can't fly. You waddle everywhere you go, and you can skim small bodies of water. To be clear, you're just a normal everyday goose.
