![]() People don’t usually talk about power fantasies in a positive light. If I had just an ounce of the goose’s gumption, I thought during a slow afternoon, I’d be unstoppable.Īnd that’s how Untitled Goose Game turned into a power fantasy. Even charging cattle and curious giraffes don’t sway them. They’re not the biggest animals, but they’re willing to stand up to (perceived) threats more than three times their size. ![]() “Many of these injuries occur when the person tries to avoid an attacking goose and trips and falls.”Īnd you thought golf was boring? /RNDcHd8lobĭespite the reputation of these birds, I honestly respect them for their ferocity. “Goose attacks have resulted in broken bones, head trauma, and emotional distress,” cautioned Geese Relief, a humane goose control company, on its website. That’s why they aren’t afraid to go wild on humans. They have to have the guts to stand up to hawks and be steely enough to drown a tern invading their nest.
