The announcement that *Goat Simulator* is branching out into a card game format has taken many by surprise. Yet, the anticipation for how this will unfold is palpable among fans. Slated for release later this year, *Goat Simulator: The Card Game* is poised to capture the essence of its video game counterpart in a new, engaging way.
Coffee Stain North, the creative force behind the beloved *Goat Simulator* series, has joined forces with MOOD Publishing to bring this innovative card game to life. MOOD Publishing, known for their work on *Deep Rock Galactic: The Board Game* and *Valheim: The Board Game*, seems like the perfect partner for this venture.
What Else Do We Know About Goat Simulator: The Card Game?
Details on *Goat Simulator: The Card Game* are still under wraps, but we know it will support 2-6 players, inviting them into a whirlwind of goat-inspired chaos. The game aims to encapsulate the trademark absurdity of the *Goat Simulator* franchise, promising a delightful and chaotic experience within the confines of a card game box.
Set to launch on Kickstarter later this year, this physical card game is expected to resonate with fans who have enjoyed the antics of goat yeeting in the video game version. The transition of this energy into a card game format is something many are eager to experience firsthand.
Santiago Ferrero, Creative Director at Coffee Stain North, shared his thoughts on the project with a humorous twist: “Chaotic animal-based video games are so last year. That’s why we’ve partnered with MOOD Publishing to release a chaotic animal-based card game instead! You’ve seen goats on your screen; now it’s time to bring them to your table.”
Who Knew Goat Simulation Would Become a Genre in Itself?
What began as an April Fool’s joke in 2014 has evolved into a cultural phenomenon. *Goat Simulator* has transcended platforms, from PCs and consoles to the Nintendo Switch, iOS, Android, and Apple Arcade, maintaining its relevance and charm through the years.
With *Goat Simulator 3* continuing to build on this absurd legacy, the introduction of a card game further cements the franchise's unique place in gaming culture. While waiting for the card game's release, fans can continue to enjoy the *Goat Simulator* games available on the Google Play Store.
