    What a fun game this is! It's simple and direct, game play is widely adustable (can be easy enough that low-skilled gamers like myself aren't overwhelmed, can be ramped up to be very challenging). The characters are well thought out, witty, and engaging, the action is exciting, and the environments are very cool. Plus, being able to interact with objects in the environment makes for a refreshing new level of combat - like a James Bond film-style fight where the stuff around you can be used as weapons! Never seen this in any other game anywhere, and it absolutely rocks. Play Guards vs Goats. It's a blast. (Full disclosure: I did provide voice acting for the game, and the author/publisher provided me a copy of the game as a way of saying thank you. I was prepared to buy it, and appreciate the gift)

    A fun lil knight game, classic tropes like saving the princess, stealing money and so on, with a good bit of comedy thrown into it, a pretty fun time at then end of it, my biggest crituiqe ig would be that it couldve gone a little harder of more into the comedy or a bit more, but thats about it. Fun knighting with yu Goat!

    Guards vs Goats is a strange but surprisingly entertaining indie medieval adventure that mixes first-person melee combat, stealth gameplay, exploration, and absurd humor into a package that constantly feels unpredictable. Developed and published by David Amado, the game follows a mercenary named William, also known as “Goat,” who becomes involved in a chaotic mission centered around rescuing a kidnapped princess from a dangerous castle. While the setup initially sounds like a fairly traditional fantasy story, the game quickly reveals itself to be something far more bizarre and comedic. Instead of taking itself seriously, Guards vs Goats embraces awkward humor, over-the-top situations, and experimental gameplay ideas that make the overall experience feel far more memorable than its unusual title might suggest. The gameplay combines multiple mechanics that constantly shift the pacing from one moment to the next. Some sections focus heavily on melee combat where players fight guards and enemies using swords and other medieval weapons, while other areas encourage stealth and careful exploration through dark corridors and castle interiors. The game often rewards players for paying atte…

    This game is absolute gold. once you get over the silly animations the game is pure fun. I laughed out loud so many times, throwing stuff on guards or finding silly jokes. Beyond the humor, the story has a surprising amount of depth and i didn't find any bugs of performance issues. Once I started all i wanted to do is play this game. I totally recommend!
