Goat Simulator is the latest in goat simulation technology, bringing next-gen goat simulation to YOU. You no longer have to fantasize about being a goat, your mobile dreams have finally come true! Gameplay-wise, Goat Simulator is all about causing as much destruction as you possibly can as a goat. It has been compared to an old-school skating game, except instead of being a skater, you're a goat, and instead of doing tricks, you wreck stuff. more! When it comes to goats, not even the sky is the limit, as you can probably just bug through it and crash the game. DISCLAIMER Goat Simulator is a completely stupid game and, to be honest, you should probably spend your money on something else, such as a hula hoop, a pile of bricks, or maybe pool your money together with your friends and buy a real goat. KEY FEATURES * You can be a goat * Get points for wrecking stuff - brag to your friends that you're the alpha goat * MILLIONS OF BUGS! We're only eliminating the crash-bugs, everything else is hilarious and we're keeping it * In-game physics that bug out all the time * Seriously look at that goat's neck * You can be a goat

This is GoatZ, this is your story. GoatZ is the latest official addition to the Goat Simulator universe, and is a fine contender for the dumbest thing to come from Coffee Stain Studios yet - GOATS AND ZOMBIES IN THE SAME GAME! Well if you’re not already yelling at your mom to buy the game for you right away, maybe this will impress you a bit more: * Official new app from the idiots that brought you Goat Simulator * Mandatory crafting system - Craft anything in the world, as long as it’s one of the half dozen weapons in the game. * Zombies, zombies everywhere because this is a zombie game, remember? * A pretty big map with some stuff on it. * Fully fledged survival mode where you have to eat every five minutes to survive, just like your grandmother. * Turn humans into Zombies and loot some crates. Just like your grandmother. * Also a casual mode for people who don’t like feeding their goat every five minutes * Tons of new unlockable goats with special powers - shrink people’s heads, hang glide, wreak havoc, spit and be a goat. For real.
