You don’t play Untitled Goose Game; you perform it

I’ve never had much luck playing the bad guy in a video game. The “renegade” option might look like fun, but I can never commit. I always end up feeling bad and find myself drifting back toward doing the right thing. That is until I played Untitled Goose Game, which is out now on PC and Nintendo Switch.

Geese are nature’s most hateful creatures. They are walking tufts of feather and meat with no room left over for scruples. They were once dinosaurs, and they still believe they are. When you first take control of the waddling villain in Untitled Goose Game, you may wonder why it has a to-do list with items like “Get the groundskeeper wet.” But the reason is simple: Because you are a goose, and geese are a-holes.
