About This Game

In a long forgotten kingdom, a hero is sent to rescue a princess from an evil lord's castle.

What can go wrong?

Guards vs Goats is a linear first-person-shooter with swords.

It has stealth, it has action, it is story driven and... a bit silly. Just a bit...

The Story

Once upon a time, in a forgotten land, in a forgotten era, there was a kingdom.

The kingdom was living in peace and prosperity. A peace and prosperity which made the lords of the realm bored and greedy.

When blood and war against neighboring kingdoms was lacking in their daily lives, the lords decided to fight among themselves.

Times like these called for a hero. A different kind of a hero...

You play as William, also know as a mercenary who goes by the name "Goat".

William is not the strongest, sharpest, bravest of all, but he does get the job done. Problem is, he may cause a bigger mess while at it.

You will be summoned by the lords of the realm to perform their "lordly" tasks in return of  some gold.

Main Features

  • First person, linear, half action, half stealth playthrough.

  • Dynamic game pace in the story playthrough, consisting of different modes:

    • A slower paced dungeon crawling mode, where you explore castles and dungeons while choosing to use stealth or strength to progress through the level.

    • A fast paced horde mode where you fight your way out.

    • Boss fights.

    • Escape scenarios where fighting is futile and you just need to run away as fast as you can.
