Review – Goat Simulator: A Waste of Space

By bmgraoos on

In 2014 Coffee Stain Studios released the original Goat Simulator. After that they released the MMO Version, the Goat MMO Simulator and after a while zombies were added into it. A few months earlier this year we got another silly release from the Coffee Stain Studios developers, the Goat Simulator: A Waste of Space. This new release is both a good start for newcomers into this crazy game series and is also good for those who god bored of chasing zombies in the previous title because it takes you, and your goat (of course) in a place where no goat has ever been before: the space!!! And yes, you guessed it right, you will headbutt a lot of people while being there.

What is new in Goat Simulator?

This new Goat Simulator’s story revolves around a space colony that’s still incomplete because there are no money left to build it. There’s a crowdfunding campaign in the game called Crowdkicker (most likely a parody after Kickstarter) that the colonies use to give you money for your construction expenses. If the people don’t want to pay for your construction expenses you can headbutt them to take their money by force.

The game also has unlockable goats, each of those with their own set of abilities and special powers that can fling people with their minds and after you get bored of that you can just explore endlessly the space surrounding you as this version has the biggest map in the series. Throughout your adventure you’ll encounter many famous people such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Donald Trump and Stephen Hawking and many cultural references about Star Wars, Star Trek etc.

If you don’t take games too seriously or you just want to play a casual and hilarious game just for fun the Goat Simulator is the perfect choice for you. Having all these said you can get this silly game for $4.99 on Google Play Store.
