✓ Like Thief Simulator, it's known for adventure storytelling, shooter and first-person shooting

≠ Stands apart with racing gameplay, third-person shooting and dark, oppressive atmosphere, while skipping deep simulation

The largest of the PS2-era entries by a distance: three cities, countryside between them, and systems the series never repeated — stat training, gang territory, vehicle variety from bikes to planes. It is also the most uneven. Mission difficulty spikes without warning, and the RPG-ish stat grind sits oddly against the pace of everything else.

It predates Thief Simulator by 14 years, with what that implies technically.

Pilgor’s baaack! Gather your herd and venture forth into Goat Simulator 3; an all-new, totally realistic, sandbox farmyard experience. Invite up to three friends in local or online co-op, create carnage as a team, or compete in mini-games and then not be friends anymore.
