A Boy And His Goat

Author:Ola Sverre Bauge
Genre:Humor
Released:1998
Review:

Taking the goat to the butcher may have a potential as a theme but there is no evidence of that in this SpeedIF game. Sparse prose, non-existant puzzles and awkward handling of the minimal plot showcase the limits of the concept. See the other Speed IF #3 games for different takes on the same premise.
