A joyful experience—for the goose. Untitled Goose Game knows exactly what it wants to do and executes that vision flawlessly. While the gameplay is mechanically simple, the many interactions between objects in the world and its inhabitants provide surprising depth. The core progression, completing a to-do list worth of evil deeds, is very satisfying and hilarious- you're playing a goose after all, why do you have a to-do list? The sound design is also a standout, featuring an orchestral score that mirrors the action, quietly playing as the goose creeps along, and becoming increasingly frantic as mischief unfolds. Overall, a short (~3 hours), but fun experience.
