    Goat Simulator 3 is the sequel you would expect with mostly more of the same. Hilarious gameplay, fun references and an entertaining single player make this a game definitely worth a try. Technically, however, it's not perfect and could have been a little better, but don't let that stop you from getting started with the goat!

    Goat Simulator 3 not only recaptures the crazy fun of the original, but it expands and improves on everything that came before, resulting in a big, stupid sandbox experience that made me smile from start to finish.

    Goat Simulator 3 is ridiculous, but it's so much fun that it's hard to not recommend, thanks to crazy missions and enjoyable gameplay.

    The open-world sandbox is so beautifully absurd, so funny, so broken that you just can't help but love this heap of dung that has become a game.

    Despite the larger world and more tasks, the playground for explosive silliness only motivates in the short term. It gets more fun in co-op with up to four participants, but only with friends or online mistakes.

    Goat Simulator 3 is an entertaining title that constantly gives you new things to do. Despite its simplicity, it grants you many fun moments you can enjoy with someone else. Unfortunately, its technical section affects the experience quite a bit.

    Coffee Stain goes big but remains shallow for Goat Simulator 3. A more ambitious sandbox and impressive customisation options aside, this is still the same gag about a weak-kneed farm animal, with a punchline that ultimately outstays its welcome.

    This game is a massive improvement from the previous game. The insanity of this game had me dying of laughter. The developers are comedyThis game is a massive improvement from the previous game. The insanity of this game had me dying of laughter. The developers are comedy wizards. Speaking of comedy, the music fits the theme of this game perfectly. Pilgor is a great protagonist. There were so many bugs, glitches, clipping issues, pop-ins, but that ironically adds to the fun of the game. There wasn't anything game breaking from my experience. The inclusion of the goat dance emote is a stroke of genius. The quests are entertaining. The physics are laughable in a good way. I had so much fun with this game, I didn't even want to go to sleep. I'm still not tired of this masterpiece.

    The open world in this game is biblical. There are so many features and things to do in the open world, I didn't even know where to start. That is exactly what an open world game should be about. Loads of content and customization options, not to mention how hilarious some of the options were. You can even drive any car you see. I was too busy messing around in the open world to even bother beating the campaign. Why don't we have more open world games like this? I could write a novel about the funniest and most mind blowing discoveries I made in the open world, but I don't want to spoil anything. You have to experience this game yourself. So many easter eggs. Unlike 90 percent of open world games, this isn't just an empty landscape of plants, trees, and rocks. The map is very diverse with farms, downtown areas, suburban areas, and much more. Every inch of map is worth exploring. There is always something crazy to see and interact with. I was entertained by simply watching what the NPCs were up to. So many gameplay mechanics and interactivity, the possibilities are endless. While the graphics are nothing amazing, it's not bad for a $30 game. I played $60 and even $120 games that look way worse than this.

    There is local split-screen and online multiplayer with up to 4 players. The fun of this game only gets better with friends. While I was busy licking and throwing NPCs in the air, my friends were talking about the mayhem they were experiencing in a lab. I just had to teleport to their location to see what they were talking about. That is the beauty of online multiplayer in a sandbox game. There are PvP minigames to play. There is King of the Hill, Car Derby, soccer and about 4 other minigames. All of them were an absolute blast. I wish there was a matchmaking system for the minigames, but I understand this small team of developers don't have that much money to be taking such risks. I wouldn't want them to either, I would rather they focus on becoming very rich to continue the Goat Simulator series and make it even better. Besides, there are developers with games that made hundreds of millions, or even billions of dollars in sales with their games. In spite of that, those developers were too lazy and greedy to add online multiplayer in their $60 games, even without a matchmaking system. The fact that Coffee Stain Studios added online into their $30 game just proves these developers are generous. Funny how Coffee Stain North called themselves lazy developers in a trailer for Goat Simulator 1. If that makes them lazy, then developers that refuse to put online in their $60 or $70 games are beyond lazy. I got it for $30 but it has been $20 for the past few days. One of my friends claimed that he got it for $20 at launch. That just goes to show how beyond generous these developers are. Not even a week old and it's already $10 off. I definitely recommend this game at that price. Even if it's back at $30, still highly recommend this game with high replay value.

    The developers have put me in a dilemma of what score I should give this game. When I think about a biblical game worthy of a 10, a buggy game like this isn't exactly what I had in mind. However it is superior to any game that I gave a 9 to, not to mention that it was only $30. I was blown away with the game and glued to the TV for hours out of sheer fun, how can something like that not get a 10. You're making this very difficult for me Coffee Stain Studios, so I'll keep this simple. If there's one thing I like about game developers, it's when they listen to me. The developers need to get those reversing tail lights to function. I played free mobile games where those white lights actually work on cars, meaning it's inexcusable for a game with a $30 price tag to lack such a simple feature. If the devs fix that in a free update by the end of next spring, I'll give them a 10. Until then, it is a 9.

    different from the Xbox Series X, the game is crashing too much on the ps5.
