What video gaming needs is more goats

Have you ever been looking at your Steam library and thought: “BAAAAAH!” Well, fret no more – there’s a new kid in the rising genre of tongue-in-cheek simulation whimsy – you herd it here first.

Goat Simulator is now available to pre-order, with Steam keys on the way.

Goat Simulator is an open-world exploration and physic simulation game in which you take charge of a noble capra, and use your gripping tongue and knack for jumping and climbing to generally goat around and wreck havoc.

It should be noted that the developers themselves don’t take it too seriously, but I think we have the next Surgeon Simulator sleeper hit on our hooves.

“Goat Simulator is a small, broken and stupid game. It was made in a couple of weeks so don’t expect a game in the size and scope of GTA with goats. In fact, you’re better off not expecting anything at all actually. To be completely honest, it would be best if you’d spend your $10 on a hula hoop, a pile of bricks, or maybe a real-life goat,” says Coffee Stain Studios on the pre-order page.
