About Good Goliath
Once upon a time, a gentle giant wakes from a deep slumber to discover himself under attack by a tiny angry mob. With no real weapons to defend himself, the giant must use anything that he can in order to survive! In Good Goliath, players are the giant and battle against hordes of pitchfork wielding villagers, cavalry mounted soldiers, and even flying devilish imps. Good Goliath puts players in a storybook world, where they fight through vibrant and cartoon style levels.
With wave-based tower defense gameplay where players are the tower, catch and dodge pitchforks, barrels, and other weapons as they are launched. Even grab some of those tiny villagers out of the air as they launch themselves and use them to knock out their friends! Battle armies of bitty foes, formidable mini-bosses and colossal monsters as you play this arcade-action experience. From castle mountain tops, shark-infested pirate islands and creepy caverns, use everything in your power to survive the endless battle.
Key Features:
Full Campaign: Fight your way through medieval worlds, oceans overrun with pirates, and the realms of the underworld as you explore 9 levels rife with mini and massive bosses. Seek out hidden treasure in order to customize your experience to unlock new sets of hands - you never know when you can use an extra pair!
Enemies Are Your Ammo: Who needs a sword when you have an angry little villager being thrown at you? Use not only pitchforks and barrels to defend yourself, but catch the tiny humans that launch themselves at you and throw ‘em back! Your ammo is only limited by what or who you can catch. But not everyone is your enemy - keep your eye out for your friendly neighborhood baker floating through levels with some cake to help you get back to tip-top health.
Storybook-Style Comical Worlds: Dive into themed biomes, such as Medieval, Pirate, and Hell World, each filled with unique bosses and enemies. The storybook art style appeals to players of all ages.
Multi-Staged Bosses: Survive waves of tiny enemies on every level, leading to formidable mini-bosses that include fire-tossing flying witches and boulder throwing giants. Each world culminates in a gigantic standoff against a challenging monstrous boss where you battle creatures even larger than you!
Simple, Yet Challenging Gameplay: Kick back and relax while you play; with easy in-game mechanics, you can be a giant sitting or standing! Unlock special objectives, locate secrets in each level, and earn bronze, silver, and gold trophies. Pattern-based gameplay of punching, dodging, catching, and throwing makes the game accessible for players of any level.

Tower defense where you throw items or people in VR. Good graphics, fun dialogue, interesting levels. The down side is that if you move out of the very narrow area that they have for you, you get taken out to a recalibration screen. After about thirty or forty times a level, it gets frustrating. I'm not even moving, I'm just moving my upper body. Refunded.13 found this helpful
The game received from ViveVR groups curator program see bottom of the review to join. Video Gameplay: https://youtu.be/dTWh6NbdR0o A fun game that lets you feel what it's like to be one of the bigger people and stomp on those below you! I'm going with a wave thrower for this game, while it's got waves to make it through. You've got to return the weapons the little folk are using on you but with interest. It's fun and I raked up 1.5 hrs pretty quick without noticing, I have to review a lot of VR games through the curator program so I don't get much time to go back to games that I have reviewed. It's a privilege and a curse at the same time doing reviews for curator groups. Anyway, it's a solid good looking game with professional-looking graphics and voice work and sound so it feels like you're buying a proper gam,e instead of the loads of home dev VR games that are still floating around. It's more arcade level chaser with a high score but the real fun is firing back and getting some frustration release while playing. You have to stand in place and calibrate VR at the start if you don't do this right or move from the original spot you will have to recalibrate. I did this wrong t…6 found this helpful
Great game. Some design flaws, but overall tremendously fun.2 found this helpful
Played using the HTC Vive and no issues. Very easy to play and will give you a good workout. This game is good for your entire family. The village people you have to do battle with are not very friendly and need to be put in their place. Remember, You are the Good Goliath. Do what you have to do. Also one little tip, If you get one of their forks stuck in you, You can pull it out and throw it back. Very Fun Adventure. 😀😁🤣😜😎🖐2 found this helpful
Liking the game so far, but I can't believe there is no option to change my 'trigger' from gripping my controller to actually pressing the trigger button. It feels like I might destroy my controller. I'm using an Index controller and outside of gripping, I can't do anything. The buttons don't even pull the options out; they do nothing. They do allow for stepping out of the play area, but no way to quit the game from the controller.1 found this helpful
Not a bad little game, need to get back to this!
