![]() It’s best not to ask questions, just sit back and ensue unprovoked mayhem in all its nonsensical glory. This adds to the wacky randomness of the game, where not everything has to be spelt out to the player. You’re a goose and your motivation is to ruin everyone’s day. You’re a goose and you’re trying to be annoying… what more do you want?īut in all seriousness, Untitled Goose Game doesn’t have a ‘plot’, per se. It seemed that I often found myself trying to regain my bearings, but you can zoom in and out at fixed levels, which is something at the very least. I also found it odd that you couldn’t move the camera and whilst everything is laid out in a way that is viewable from a front angle, the right analogue stick could’ve been used to pan and survey your surroundings. Even a little small one tucked away in a corner. Throughout the game, I kept thinking to myself that things would be so much more convenient if there was a map. It’s that extra bit of detail that separates the great games from good ones. This all makes the game-world feel that much more interconnected and not like you’re just jumping from one level to the next. It all happens seamlessly as upon completing your to-do-list, a gate will open within the game’s context and you can proceed onwards. Proceeding from one area to the next, there are no loading screens. As mentioned above, there are sometimes multiple ways to complete an objective and you can often use whatever is at your disposal to make it happen. Level DesignĮach segment creates a layout that specifically highlights the objectives that you need to complete. It’s not much, but it’s a nice touch that we at Switchaboo always like to see. The HD Rumble is nice and subtle, with a little shock of vibration when the goose honks. Also, please consider supporting us on Patreon so that we can continue to do what we love doing. On the other hand, it does help to keep the game at a relaxing pace, so it comes down to personal preference in the end.Įnjoying our Untitled Goose Game Switch review so far? Don’t forget to like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter for more Nintendo Switch content. The game can be a little too slow paced for its own good, often having to wait for NPCs to perform certain actions before you can do a follow-up attempt. This would have been frustrating, but the developers thought ahead with a reset option and even though your mess will be cleaned up, your objectives that you have completed remain crossed off. I did find that there were a few possible scenarios that forced me to press reset in the pause menu (I locked myself out of the garden – whoops). However once those challenges are completed, the game doesn’t do much in terms of replayability aside from timed challenges. This works great for those who are looking for more. ![]() Once the credits have rolled, you are presented with additional challenges that allow you to replay through the levels. You may enter a new area and think “how am I supposed to that?”, but persistence and experimentation is the key to victory. Untitled Goose Game does a great job at providing more than one solution to an objective, allowing the player to continue interacting with as much as they can until they reach a solution. At the end of the day, your goal is to simply be as chaotic and nonsensically annoying as possible, with tasks like “get the groundskeeper wet” and “rake in the lake”. Your objectives are all laid out in dot points on a single lined piece of paper. ![]() ![]() Pick up and interact with objects, distract people and complete all of your objectives to proceed to the next set of tasks. If I was forced to define Untitled Goose Game to a genre, I would have to say that it is a physics-based puzzle stealth game. ![]()
