Geese are horrible. Whether it’s the honking, the feces, or general goosey mischief, they tend to be anarchic nuisances. The top-selling video game “Untitled Goose Game” allows players to assume the role of a troublesome goose, wreaking havoc on a virtual town. This unexpected hit has caught the attention of the public, inspiring many Untitled Goose Game memes about evil geese parading around and causing a ruckus.

Created by the indie game development company House House, Untitled Goose Game reached the number one spot on Nintendo Switch’s list of top sellers and digital downloads lists in the United States. Even Chrissy Teigen praised the game in a tweet.

The description of Untitled Goose Game is fittingly: “it’s a lovely day in the village, and you are a horrible goose.” The object of the game is merely to cause chaos in a quaint English town, stealing from the townspeople, throwing things in the river, and honking incessantly.

Untitled Goose Game Memes and tweets reflect on the joys of impersonating a horrible goose while playing this “slapstick-stealth-sandbox” game, and just how terrible geese can be IRL. The game is available for download on Mac, PC, or Nintendo Switch for $14.99.

Stonks Honks!
