    The consept was interesting and there was some charm and humor to doing pranks. However, the game was very slow paced. I didn't always find it easy to understand what needed to be done to complete a task. In such moments, nothing happens, the music stops and it stops the moment of the game. This game didn't quite meet my expectations.

    I love this game. it is so funny just pick up and play it through. Only bad thing is that is too short, just 2-4 hours.

    +this game has very enjoyable multiplayer

    A pleasant indie experience brought together by a simplistic and colorful artstyle, fun and chaotic gameplay, and a number of cute, clever puzzles that often have hilarious outcomes. The premise of playing as a goose who wreaks havoc on local townspeople and city-goers is amusing, and definitely delivers, despite some hiccups with hitboxes and some annoying characters with odd habits.

Definitely a great try for anyone.… Expand

    One of the most unexpected games, pairing the chaotic instincts of a goose with stealth mechanics and puzzles. It may be short, but it is perfectly paced. Filled with humour and wonderful art, this will remain a classic.

    Great emergent sandbox fun. Get goofy as a stealthy and cunning goose.

    Beautiful art, wonderful sound design

    Fun to pass the controller as everyone trades ideas on what to do.

    When it starts, you believe it’s going to be very fun. But it’s not. It’s boring. Don’t waste your money. You’re better off buying a happy meal.

    Untitled Goose Game is the best video game of all time! It's fun, it's funny, it's creative. It's got everything you'd want from a game that involves playing a goose. However, once the game is fully complete, there won't be much left to play the game for meaning that it might get boring for players who just want to complete games instead of repeating yourself time after time.

    It's hard to give this game as much credit as it got post-release hype, but playing a goose can be funny, simple, and yet run into challenges that are surprisingly difficult.

    Pretty fun game, but it gets a bit repetitive sometimes. I was hoping for a kind of game to just do whatever and mess around for fun in, but the game becomes tedious, and a lot of the solutions are not clear at all (at least for me). Still great game, had fun playing.

    I had much fun breaking the game with my brother as second player. Coop mode really is the true game, you can drive the NPCs insane this way. Also I got one million dollars for putting the rake in the lake.

    Loved it. Beautiful, calming, charming. The puzzle solving can be frustrating at times, but the feeling of overcoming wacky controls and annoying villagers is more than enough to make up for it. I just wish I got to see more of the world and meet more people to honk at. 10/10

    This game is extremely over rated. I regret buying it honestly. Frustrating game play, being pushed around by people and unable to control your character. The game is very rudimentary and over priced even on sale. Being a goose is comical at first but quickly loses its charm.

    I picked up this game because it looks silly. However, the fun is cancelled by the difficult puzzles.

    Quite an overrated game, but still enjoyable. The concept is fun and messing with the villagers is even more fun, but thats really about it. When the game started to become interesting, it was just about over, so its way too short. I bought it for half the price and that was the best choice, cause its regular asking price is abit too much.

    并不是一个轻松的合作游戏，虽然流程不长，开头轻松搞笑，但游戏中出现多次抓狂大于快乐的情况～

    Not bad but I'm not quite sure why it received so many rave reviews.

    I enjoyed my few hours with it and it may be worth picking up on sale.

    There is very little reason to replay this game once completed and its a bit expensive for a couple of hours of mildly entertaining but forgettable gameplay

    This game is a children's story for sociopaths-to-be. It is remarkably cute, very well designed, and incredibly creative. Somehow without much in the way of violence, its somehow more wantonly cruel than anything in the GTA franchise. Unfortunately, its way too short, and ultimately unsatisfying. Buy it on sale, do NOT pay full price for it.

    One of the most enjoyable games I've played in a while. This is a game that can be enjoyed by all ages. It's funny, it's silly, it's fun, it has lovely reactive music.

But perhaps the game needs second and third chapters in different settings? Regardless, I loved the few hours I spent playing this game. Having got it on a physical cartridge I can lend it to my wife so that she too can enjoy it, and I will undoubtedly return to it in the future for more goosey hilarity.… Expand

    Untitled Goose Game is the epitome to minimalist style with basic colors and very undefined features, but it pulls it off. it's an easy game to play but the tasks are challenging at times. It's a fun short story set around a good making mischief in a small town. Add all that to a light-hearted piano score and you get a solid 7.

    Bad graphics, bad music, slow, boring gameplay, £18, I wouldn't have paid £1.80 for it. Every 89p game I own is better. It is a very funny game if you're about 6 years old.

    Simple and short, not super challenging, but enjoyable to play due to the uncomplicated but cute graphics and the fact you're a Goose.
    I have to say it's perhaps slightly overhyped.

    Playing as an annoying goose is an ingenious idea. The puzzles are fairly entertaining and it looks and sounds great, but boy, was it short. Makes you question the value for money equation.

    The elements of this game all work together wonderfully to charm and amuse you through its 3-or-so hours. From the vibrant art design to the charming characterisation, this British town is ready to hate this goose with a passion. This game just holds so much in every inch of its world and the way it comes together makes it so hard to not completely fall in love.

    Untitled Goose Game is a gem that hits all the right marks. There's some real appeal in using an otherwise innocuous animal sowing chaos in a sleepy village, and it helps that the results aren't violent at all. The game's short length keeps the experience from wearing thin, but there's enough here to keep you busy. With a pleasant presentation, Untitled Goose Game is a title where you'll both cherish the initial experience and enjoy showing it off to friends to see their reactions.
