Gameplay is focused on the tactical layer, without any form of resource gathering or base building. We direct all of our attention to commanding our units, with building being limited to trenches or setting up barbed wire and mine fields. We can also take control of a single soldier and control him like in an action game. One of the strongest elements of the production is realism: the creators have carefully recreated not only appearance, but also battle skills of various armies.

Goat Simulator is a humorous simulator that serves as a commercial extension of the joke game made by Swedish Coffee Stain (known primarily from the Sanctum series). The game lets you control a crazy goat named Pilgor which destroys everything in the virtual world. The goal is to cause as much damage as possible with the use of a wide range of absurd accessories, like rockets, explosives, etc. It was the developers’ ambition to create a big cliché parody, mocking low-budget simulators. Therefore, Goat Simulator features loads of purposely implemented humorous bugs. The editor gives you a chance to create your own levels and share them with others through the Internet. On the technical side, the game utilizes the power of Unreal Engine 3.
