    This game has truly given me a deeper perspective of life. It has it all, a magnificent story that speaks straight to your heart, stunning voice acting (baaaa), and a wide room for exploration.

    Лучшая первоапрельская шутка от геймдевов!! Это реально смешно и весело! Стоит поиграть хотя б 1н раз! Но не покупайте за полную стоимость, разработчики сами так говорят, ждите скидку.

    BEST GAME EVER.

    Goat Simulator is the latest in goat simulation technology, bringing next-gen goat simulation to YOU. You no longer have to fantasize about being a goat, your dreams have finally come true! WASD to write history.

    Gameplay-wise, Goat Simulator is all about causing as much destruction as you possibly can as a goat. It has been compared to an old-school skating game, except instead of being a skater, you're a goat, and instead of doing tricks, you wreck stuff. Destroy things with style, such as doing a backflip while headbutting a bucket through a window, and you'll earn even more points! Or you could just give Steam Workshop a spin and create your own goats, levels, missions, and more! When it comes to goats, not even the sky is the limit, as you can probably just bug through it and crash the game.

    Disclaimer: Goat Simulator is a completely stupid game and, to be honest, you should probably spend your money on something else, such as a hula hoop, a pile of bricks, or maybe pool your money together with your friends and buy a real goat.    … Expand

    Altough Goat Simulator is a small game with no real objective it's map is packed with cool things to do with some hidden secrets here and there. It is definitely worth the 10 dollar price tag . Soon enough many people can make new stuff using the steam workshop which adds to the amount of content e.g new maps, challenges etc...

    This is by far the most splendid goat simulator I have ever played. It captures the running, jumping, licking, and headbutting essence of a real goat in a way that the other goat sims just don't deliver. If you have ever pondered about the daily life of a goat, look no further.
    Also includes the addictive mini game 'Flappy Goat' so this is like getting two games for the price of one.    This is by far the most splendid goat simulator I have ever played.

    I was in a deep depression. My life seemed to be going nowhere. Then, I'm perusing the internet and I see goat simulator. I begin to weep, partially out of happiness, and partially because I'll have to wait a few days. I instantly pre-order. Goat Simulator saved me. GOTY 10/10

    1. Get yourself a hangover
    2. Gather up with 2 or 3 friends.
    3. Acquire some beers
    4. Have tons of fun for 2 hours.

    The area is small, but there was actually a decent amount of "quests" for a joke game like this. The quests give you more stupid stuff that get the physics even more crazier.

    A great game just to goof around with. Can entertain me for a few hours, good game to just play if you had one too many beers. I look forward to updates from Coffee Stain to make Goat Simulator more entertaining.

    Goat Simulator is a lot of fun, as long as messing around and having fun is your goal. Being a completionist can actually be quite a pain, and ruin the fun. Especially because among the many hilarious bugs in the game, there are also some very frustrating ones, such as the one that can wipe all progress.

You can become the queen of goats, make demonic sacrifices, and even fly through the air in bizarre and uncontrollable patterns.

However, if you're looking for a good time rather than realistic goating, this odd mess of a game has plenty in store for you.… Expand

    Goat Simulator is an amazing game, it´s extremely glitchy but the company itself said that the game was made in less than 3 weeks, so the purpose of the game is to be buggy.

    Controls: 9.5/10 (Controls are simple, creative but there should more keys or the fact of adding controller support) Gameplay:    Goat Simulator is an amazing game, it´s extremely glitchy but the company itself said that the game was made in less than 3 weeks, so the purpose of the game is to be buggy.

    The games is intended to be silly. If any other people are rating it less than a 5, then they are taking it too seriously. The game is humorous, and contains a lot of discovery, but it's a just a tiny bit inconsistent in some places; that doesn't matter. It's a still a fun game. The achievements are easy to get and it's fun to play for what it's worth.

    Goat Simulator was not meant to be ´that´ Popular as it is. It was a great start for a new small team of developers (Around 18 was developing the game) and it took a couple of weeks to make the game.

    The game is quirky, and has not the biggest game engine engine, but good enough to make an Indie game.
    Final Words: The game is meant to be a community game, like Garry´s Mod where you make maps, new Mutators (goats) and so on. The game is definitely worth the 10$, it may not get 1.000 Hours on your steam account, but its a really funny game, when you´re rolling the dice in custom game, with using all the goats you´re getting when you´re completing quests.    … Expand

    It's fun, quirky, goofy, and has an appropriate price tag.

    No, this isn't Skyrim or Battlefield, but it knows what it is (a pointless game with an ever more pointless goal, to be a goat) and performs that to it's best degree.

    For only $9.99 you can experience this life changing masterpiece. More goats for your dollar than any other game I know of. These days there is a dire lack of goats as a protagonist/antagonist in video games. It's awesome that Coffeestain Studios decided to fill in this niche and represent goats for the first time in the industry.
