    What does one say about goat simulator? Well we can say that it is a boring buggy mess. This game is unfinished and gets boring extremely quickly.

Dont buy this game dont give these people money… Expand

    This game is absolutely retarded which is why I love it. It's the perfect game for those people who like satirical comedy, as long as they don't mind it being a little dark.

    Every so often, a video game will transcend excellence and begin to soar into the empyrean of true philosophy. Goat simulator is such a game.

    10/10….

    This is not a game, this is a joke and it shows that stupid people numbers are really high because how this game sells.
    Do not buy, it contains only bugs, no effort was put in this game, it was created as a joke, that's all.

    The Best Game Ever Made in the History of Mankind!! Goat - all you ever wanted to be - a goat. Fulfill your deepest desire and make your most inner dreams come true by being simply a goat! A masterpiece beyond what you could have imagined!

    I always wanted to be a goat that can pull cars around with its tongue. I hope there will be a patch that adds Oculus Rift support and first person view in the future!

    This is probably the most creative game released since Portal. It makes no sense, it is **** crazy, and it is tons of fun. Its strength is its random insanity and lack of any real substance. It is easily worth $10 for the humor.

    Funny. Funny. Funny. This game is a welcomed break from the cookie-cutter mmos, banal fantasy games and cash-in sports titles. The one bad thing about the title is that it is too short, but it is very re-playable and there is already a small but growing modding community of fans.

    All these wanna-be critics giving bad reviews to the game are actually missing the point of this game.
    Don't give into their stupidity and pretentious wording, this game is well worth its price, and is definitely fun.

    While being a nice and certainly fun game to play, it's all based on being completely silly and over-the-top.
    In my opinion, it'd do better as an easter egg in an existing game, rather than being a standalone

    This game has everything, goats, jetpacks, demons and more. It's a brilliant achievement of mankind and the creator of the game should get a Nobel peace price. Send this to all the world leaders and world peace shall be achieved.

    It's pathetic that this game has less than an 80 from professional reviewers. It's like they are incapable of taking a joke these days. Regardless, this game is loads of fun to play with friends around and laugh about the silly stuff that happens. The fact that it has steam workshop behind it definitely helps too. Ignore the "professional reviewers." This game is fantastic for the price you pay.

    I have to admit, a very good level design with highly detailed textures. And the idea. That's pretty much the only good things about it. First thing you do is change the resolution, game freeze, you have to change it manually in the .ini files. The only thing about this game is Unreal engine with a custom model for the player. The physic tolerance number set to the worst possible number soI have to admit, a very good level design with highly detailed textures. And the idea. That's pretty much the only good things about it.

The physic tolerance number set to the worst possible number so that every objects goes through and stick to others objects to make bugs. Oh yeah, it's "fun"... no it's not. Then you have some "quests" (jump and such) that can be completed in an hour and you also visited the whole map and there's nothing else do to. Deleted.

    Would not recommend.    … Expand

    There are very few games that let you do whatever you feel like at any given moment. Sure you can't drive a car, but you can blow it up by headbutting it. If you're looking for a good time rather than a long story, or have ever wanted to be a goat, this is your game.

    Infinite fun with user made custom maps. This game is absolute insanity. You could even say that is goat is GOTY. The abilities this goat has are amazing.

    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.

    This is probably the greatest demonstration of the internet's influence : A Youtube video actually turned into a real game within a few months.

    I, for one, am glad that Coffee Stain Studios actually went through the trouble of making this. And to be honest, I haven't had such a great time playing a game in ages.    … Expand

    This game is what it says it is. There is no next level ground breaking gameplay. They advertised exactly what it is. And for what it is it, it is great. These expert "critics" are being completely idiotic. It's like me giving Titanfall a 0/10 because it is a bad MMORPG...

    A masterpiece, that breaks the self imposed barriers of gaming narrative and ensnares the player with intelligent gameplay and brilliant A.I. Anyone wanting to tackle the same themes will have to be compared to Goat Simulators work in the future, and it won't be pretty.

    Goat Simulator doesn't really offer anything new to the Goat genre. It just repackages everything already done in Goat games. For a quick round of jumping, bucking, running, and other goat related gaming, it scratches the itch. If you're looking for hard core goat gaming look somewhere else.

    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

    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.

    The developers said out loud that Goat Simulator is not worth buying unless you come across their game on some sale. And they are right. [05/2014, p.69]
