A unique take on wordplay and hidden features, February 3, 2016

Goose, Egg, Badger is a charming mid-sized game about fixing things on your exotic animal farm after an intruder enters your farm. You are Hope Lee, a farmer/repairer/etc., and you have to put your badger, ape, yak, and duck back in their pens while cleaning up your house.

The puzzles are a bit spotty, as the actions you have to perform are often unmotivated, or require you to try something out on every animal before discovering the right combination.

Now, below all of this is another layer, an entirely different game. This extra layer was inspired by a quote from an imaginary review from an earlier competition: (Spoiler - click to show)“I
didn’t even notice that every noun was also a verb until my second time
through.”


The author took this quote and ran with it, and it is possible to complete the entire game using only such commands. This is clever, and very fun to play with.

Recommended for fans of goofy slice-of-life or wordplay.
