It's like the strawberries and cream of fictional birds. Goose is cut from the exact same cloth as Feathers McGraw, but with the frantic NOOT NOOT energy of Pingu. Those webby feet slap on the ground with the clarity of purpose of a toddler running away with an entire packet of Jaffa Cakes. The wiggle in its feathery hips, the serpentine undulation of its neck, and the absolute absence of any expression whatsoever, are the perfect combination for both menace and comedic timing. And the goose is perfectly designed as a blank slate, on which you can project motivation. They both have big white wings and get cross about things for unclear reasons, so same difference, really. I cannot overstate how much those depictions remind me of home - the home I hate. I get extremely powerful deja vu when playing things like Untitled Goose Game, or Everybody's Gone To the Rapture. In short, it is the town depicted in Untitled Goose Game. If you drove through it on market day you'd probably think it was wonderful. It is a stultifying horror of a place, but it is also very bucolic. I've probably mentioned this before, but I grew up in the middle of nowhere, and the closest town, where I went to school, is so awful that William Golding wrote a book about the horrors of the English class system that was directly inspired by growing up there. I just really, really hate where I'm from. Recently, by visiting other areas of natural beauty, I discovered that this is not the case.

Don't even get me started on the post-apocalyptic nightmare world it takes place in.Īlthough if you just run a farm and are careful to never, EVER, read anything or click on anything in a persons house. oddīetween causally murdering your own children who will then HUNT YOU AS GHOSTS, the fact that every home is broken by a truly horrific secret including the ONGOING sexual abuse of a child, a girl who's mother is SO desperate that her husband doesn't learn of an affair that she's been gas lit to the point where she believes and tells everyone her hair is dyed despite having no memory of that ever happening, and an abusive alcoholic who beats her adult daughter, this is a game that is always one discovery a way from completely redefining your perception of events. I love Stardew Valley, but putting one of the darkest, most disturbing, borderline psychological horror games ever made on a "wholesome" list is. The difference here is that the Wholesome Direct is indies-only, but our list includes a couple of the big names, too.
#GAMES LIKE UNTITLED GOOSE GAME FULL#
But not always - some "wholesome" games (like a certain game about a bad goose) are more about letting the player go a little bit wild, but always in a way that's gentler and less severe than chopping people's heads off in a Dark Souls or a Witcher game.Īnd, of course, there's always the Wholesome Direct, which is packed full of anthropomorphic animals, cafés, camping, and farming. It's more of a feeling, really: a game that you can relax to, that can be challenging but never punishing, with elements of friendship, community, and kindness. What exactly makes a game wholesome? Is it the player's state of mind while playing? Is it an adherence to specific aesthetics or messages? Is it the inclusion of birds? Well, you might be forgiven for thinking it's the last one, because at least half of the games on this list are about birds specifically, but the idea of a "wholesome" game is a bit more nebulous than that.
