    Surgeon Simulator used to be my go-to silly, cooperative, party-friendly game. I’m glad to add Goat Simulator to that list.

    Great fun, especially with friends, Goat Simulator is so out there and different to the norm that you can't help but have a good time, and laugh along with it.

    You’d think a game about wanton destruction with split-screen co-op would offer lots of content and fun times to chew on. Sadly, that cud turns to crud in a few short hours. [November 2015, p74]

    It doesn't have to make sense - just go with it. [Oct 2015, p.94]

    Goat Simulator is again the champion of craziness, even on PlayStation systems. Compared with other editions of the game, nothing has changed: it is fun and entertaining, despite many limitations and flaws.

    You won't be feeding from this particular trough for all that long, but if you're willing to splurge on a headache-inducing afternoon of idiotic entertainment, then – incredibly – there are worse options out there.

    Goat Simulator is unapologetically absurd but fails to meaningfully give players anything to do beyond the occasional ridiculous party trick.

    Even if the price was right (and that price is free, regardless of platform) Goat Simulator is not worth playing. It's a game designed for YouTube, not the average consumer. Reward this shrewd business decision by not buying this game and just watching some clips online instead.

    Objectiveless toy box gameplay meant for streamers to yell over. I knew I probably wouldn't like it as I don't like these types of games.

One of the worst games I have everImagine someone tried to make a Tony Hawk style game and gave up after the world was made. Also, goats? One of the worst games I have ever played. It was FREE on PS+ and I still feel like I got ripped off. Full Review »
