It’s a more urban area than Goatville and a lot bigger too – as with Goatville, it’s packed full of things to discover and ‘goats’ to unlock.
XBOX 360 GOAT SIMULATOR GAME FREE
I don’t want to spoil any more – but there’s a lot to unlock and they’re all hilarious, with some granting some absolutely brilliant special powers.Ī free second area was added a short while after release – Goat City Bay. I use the word ‘goat’ in quotation marks because, even though they’re all named as goat variants, quite often the avatars you’ll unlock aren’t goats at all. There’s golden goat trophies to find and collecting these unlocks other ‘goat’ types, as does performing certain tasks in the world. It plays sort of like a chilled out version of Tony Hawk, mashed up with the open world chaos of GTA. Though Goatville is an open area and there are no real fixed objectives, you’ll find lots to do and there are stunts and combos to perform (such as successful chains of backflips, for example) for point bonuses and bragging rights. You can headbutt, kick and lick (licking objects is how you’ll interact with most of the items in the world if you don’t want to destroy them) pretty much anything. Your goat is invincible any time you’re damaged – hit by a car or falling from a great height, for example – you’ll just need to press a button to get up again. It’s a reasonably small stage, but it’s filled with a surprisingly large number of secrets and things to mess around with. It’s a nicely playable game too, with easy to grasp controls – though there’s some awkwardness to the game.Īt launch, there was just one area – Goatville. From an audio point of view it has an off-kilter, somewhat discordant soundtrack, with some great sound effects (the humans you’ll hear as you rampage through the environment have some really funny lines too).
XBOX 360 GOAT SIMULATOR GAME PC
Though it didn’t launch in the best of states technically, play on a decent PC nowadays and it can look pretty nice. Developers Coffee Stain Studios were definitely in on the joke, boasting about the number of bugs and proudly keeping them in the game if they didn’t break it. I remember reading about Goat Simulator in the months leading up to release. More than a week of my life has been spent in a game that was originally just a silly joke, but one which actually outgrew its daft beginnings and has spawned excellent, equally silly DLC add-ons and almost an entire genre of amusing ‘simulator’ type games. Perhaps the biggest shock for me though was seeing my game time on Goat Simulator which, equally surprisingly, occupies the top spot in my Steam library for number of hours played at 170 hours.
For example, there are some games I swear I’ve played way longer than is registered (have I only spent that much time with Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, having played through it multiple times?) then there’s the opposite, with one of the Arma games showing over 100 hours played, when I’ve played it a handful of times at most – and not in chunks of more than 20 minutes or so in each session (I tried, but it wasn’t for me). Whenever you sort a digital game library by hours played, it throws up a few surprises.
