Have you heard of the Untitled Goose Game? You know, the one where it’s a lovely morning in the village, and you’re a horrible goose? Even if you haven’t, this surprisingly wholesome (and free!) family-friendly exhibition is still likely to prompt a chuckle and teach you something about our homegrown gaming industry.
ACMI’s latest exhibition is titled Honk! Untitled Goose Exhibition and it’s all about a video game where you play a grumpy goose terrorising an innocent little town. Released in 2029 by Victorian developers House House, Untitled Goose Game is a multi-award-winning game of stealth and slapstick, which was quick to become a global cult favourite with kids and grownups alike.
Whether you’re a video game expert or a complete noob, you can learn about the rich history of slapstick comedy that inspired the game, or play early versions from the development process that have never been seen by the public before. Little ones will enjoy sound effect buttons and colourful interactive displays.
This exhibition is free and unticketed, which means you can drop into ACMI any time from September 17 2024 until February 16 2025. Find out more about Honk! Untitled Goose Exhibition at the ACMI website.
