Goat Simulator is a humorous simulator that serves as a commercial extension of the joke game made by Swedish Coffee Stain (known primarily from the Sanctum series). The game lets you control a crazy goat named Pilgor which destroys everything in the virtual world. The goal is to cause as much damage as possible with the use of a wide range of absurd accessories, like rockets, explosives, etc.
Goat Simulator for PC, iOS and etc. is a humorous game by the independent Coffee Stain studio from Sweden. The absurd project of a crazy goat simulator was conceived by accident. Originally, it was supposed to be simply a joke, but first videos ed on YouTube attracted lively interest. The developers had no other choice than to finish the game and publish it. Coffee Stain Studios is primarily known for their Sanctum series combining elements of tower defence games and FPSs.
In Goat Simulator you assume the role of an unruly goat named Pilgor which aim is to deal as much damage as possible. Gameplay combines loads of absurd elements and is purely humorous. The game features e.g. bugs, like unnaturally expanding neck of the goat or an ability of climbing a ladder – these bugs are left in the game on purpose, as “bugs are a feature.” Pilgor runs with her tongue sticking out, with which you can grab different objects (e.g. an axe) so as to inflict greater damage.
Goat Simulator published on PC, iOS and etc. is powered by Unreal Engine 3, so visuals are realistic, which makes the game even more absurd.

Another DLC for the crazy action game Goat Simulator released in 2014 by Coffee Stain. The Waste of Space expansion adds a completely new map to the game. The map is larger than anything that Goat Simulator and its expansions offered up until now. The new level consists of a large space area and of an alien planet with a colony on its surface. Typically for the Goat Simulator, there is no story per se. Instead, the game focuses on a typically sandbox gameplay model which is filled with absurd jokes and opportunities for having fun and engaging in combat. Chaos and destruction can be pursued not only on the surface of the planet and in space, but on space cruisers and space stations as well. The expansion also adds various futuristic technologies and a romance system which parodies the Mass Effect series.

The second large expansion to Goat Simulator – the crazy action game with a goat protagonist which parodies the wave of various virtual simulators. This time the developers from Coffee Stain Studios decided to ridicule sandbox survival zombie apocalypse games. The title of the DLC references to MMO game DayZ which for a long time remained in Steam Early Access. Goat Simulator: GoatZ is a purchasable expansion which requires the core version of the game to work. The title offers a large open world filled with various attractions and easter eggs. The goat protagonist must face aggressive zombies in which various weapons created with a simple crafting system helps him. The player must take care of the needs of the character – especially hunger which must be appeased every five minutes in order to remain alive. Goat Simulator: GoatZ is filled with bugs left there on purpose in order to parody cases of Early Access games.

A free DLC to the bestseller production by Swedish Coffee Stain Studios, balancing on the border of absurdity. The expansion turns Goat Simulator into a tongue-in-cheek MMO, a pastiche of serious MMORPG titles such as World of Warcraft. The action takes us to a fantasy land of dwarves and elves, in which goats and sheep wage a war. While creating your hero, you can choose one of five available classes: Warrior, Rogue, Magician, Hunter, and… Microwave. Following the path of the genre’s classic titles, gameplay comes down to completing more or less absurd quests during which your character earns experience points necessary to gain experience levels. The production also features a variety of enemies and a whole range of ridiculous activities. Apart from changed visuals - now kept in a fantasy style - there are loads of bugs just like in the original title - many of them are implemented on purpose.

Game Ratings for Goat Simulator Video Game.
IGN: 8 / 10 by Dan Stapleton
Goat Simulator is a clever piece of interactive satire powered by hilarious ragdoll physics and its embracing of bugs.
Push Square: 6 / 10 by Sammy Barker
Goat Simulator's nauseating stupidity has a certain je ne sais quoi, we suppose. 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. This isn't baaaad, but it's not the Greatest of all Time either.
God is a Geek: 7 / 10 by Mike Stubbsy
Providing that you are in on the joke, you are almost guaranteed to have a good time – albeit only for a few hours a best. Running around as a goat is something I never imagined I wanted to do, but it turns out it's incredibly fun. The bugs and general lack of polish do have a negative effect on the game and the short playtime will have some questioning whether it's worth the asking price. But if you are looking for a couple of hours of fun with a lot of laughs, you cant go wrong with Goat Simulator.
