Many of the villagers will react to your presence if they spot you, thus preventing you from causing havoc. Most of these tasks will require a particular skill you don’t tend to associate with geese, and that’s stealth. Once done, you’ll unlock a new part of the village for you to continue your honking antics in. Once you’ve completed enough in an area, you’ll get a final task to undertake. The tasks could be anything from stealing a prize pumpkin, to scaring a young boy into a telephone box. Each one causes a little bit of mischief to the unfortunate villagers going about their daily life. As you venture through each area, you’re given a set of tasks to complete.

Honking onto centre-stage comes House House, with a game that makes you waddle around pulling pranks in a local village, like some sort of feathered Dennis the Menace. Trust Untitled Goose Game to come along and remind me of the good old days. I’m older, potentially wiser, and I have responsibilities. However, I haven’t really felt that adrenaline rush you get from doing things you shouldn’t for a while now. As kids, my mates and I used to get up to all sorts of relatively harmless shenanigans. A little bit of mischief goes a long way if you bend the rules but don’t quite break them. But despite that, even I cannot question the undeniable truth that being a little bit naughty is good fun. It’s in my nature to be nice, and do right by other people. Given the option in games, I’ll always be the good guy the one that does things the right way and gets the good ending.
