Brief outline of the game

Sequel in which players control a goat which must cause as much destruction as possible.

Content specific issues

The purpose of the game is for the goat to cause as much chaos and destruction as possible. This can result in violence against human characters. For example, if the goat delivers a head butt to a propane tank, it will explode and anything within the vicinity will be set alight. This will cause human and other animal characters to run or roll about, although no visible harm is seen to come to them and they continue as normal once the flames are extinguished. Similarly, characters can be hit by moving vehicles but no injuries are shown. The goat is also able to attack human characters, who scream and shout and fall to the ground. Characters who have been knocked over may scream again if trampled upon. There is use of mild bad language ('bullshit').
