After _Untitled Goose Game_ was unleashed for [Nintendo Switch](https://time.com/5682814/nintendo-switch-lite-review/), Mac, and PC on Sept. 20, the game’s titular bird protagonist quickly became a viral star. In the days since _Untitled Goose Game_‘s debut, Twitter users, including celebrities like [Chrissy Teigen](https://time.com/collection/100-most-influential-people-2019/5567708/chrissy-teigen/), have taken to the social media platform to express their admiration for the game’s delightfully bizarre premise, which asks players to assume the role of a mischievous goose wreaking havoc on a quaint English village. > [](https://twitter.com/chrissyteigen/status/1178113287667343360) “You are a goose let loose on an unsuspecting village,” the game’s description on [Nintendo’s website](https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/untitled-goose-game-switch/#game-info) reads. “Make your way around town, from peoples’ back gardens to the high street shops to the village green, setting up pranks, stealing hats, honking a lot, and generally ruining everyone’s day.” Apparently we all stan a waterfowl icon who does what it wants when it wants. > [](https://twitter.com/BrandyLJensen/status/1178112251959681030) > [](https://twitter.com/markhoppus/status/1178017181570781184) > [](https://twitter.com/existentialcoms/status/1177721046092304384) > [](https://twitter.com/jpbrammer/status/1177441555549839360) > [](https://twitter.com/halaIboy/status/1178548519940100096) > [](https://twitter.com/jonnysun/status/1178539785515933696) > [](https://twitter.com/emiyannn/status/1177106170181345280) > [](https://twitter.com/missdoomcookie/status/1175945821008756736) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5689110/horrible-goose-game/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5689110/horrible-goose-game/"},"headline":"Everyone's Tapping Into Their Horrible Side Thanks to the Consequence-Free Untitled Goose Game","datePublished":"2019-09-30T16:56:10.000Z","dateModified":"2023-12-12T21:23:01.000Z","description":"\"It's a lovely day in the village, and you are a horrible goose\"","url":"https://time.com/5689110/horrible-goose-game/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Tech","Video Games","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt328958f55b625b12/698a03a08fd2ee79aa3602d7/goose-game.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt328958f55b625b12/698a03a08fd2ee79aa3602d7/goose-game.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Untitled Goose Game","caption":"Untitled Goose Game screenshot","creditText":"House House","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5689110/horrible-goose-game/","name":"Everyone's Tapping Into Their Horrible Side Thanks to the Consequence-Free Untitled Goose Game"}}]}] ```
