The millions of Goo Balls that live in the beautiful World of Goo are curious to explore -- but they don't know that they are in a game, or that they are extremely delicious. Drag and drop living, squirming, talking, globs of goo to build structures, bridges, cannonballs, zeppelins, and giant tongues so that you can direct the Goo Balls to their goal on the other end of the stage.
Massive Online Competition - Human players around the world compete in a living leaderboard to build the tallest towers of goo in World of Goo Corporation's mysterious sandbox
Great game.. too short. (2009-03-09)
game play simple and addictive
animation and cut scenes were well done.
music score fit well and was only a little repetitive. (much better than @#%^%ing Crayon Physics)
Having played it on the PC I wonder if it might have been more fun on the Wii with different controls. If your unsure try the demo first. I don't feel like I over paid for this game.. but I think that the game could have been longer and a little more complex.
On a side note. I install the game in Wine and beat it before the native Linux version was released. Linux version is available on their website.
Perfect for kids, fun for Dad, too (2009-03-09)
The kids are having a great time with this game. They're working together to solve the scenarios, giggling the whole time. Very clever game.
Most unique game EVER! A+++ (2009-03-08)
i have owned a Nintendo Wii for almost 2 years now and stopped using it after the first week. now i use it every day with this game. it is by far the coolest game ever. i give it a+++++++ and i hope the guys who created this game make another one like it. its the only reason i use my wii anymore. DEF recommend!
Absolutely fabulous, you must give it a try (2009-03-08)
I downloaded the demo over the Christmas holidays and happily showed it off to my family. The next week I bought a copy from 2D Boy (support the devs, indie DRM-free game!) and my wife has been enjoying it ever since. She just recently beat it and immediately felt the withdrawal. ;)
The music, the physics, and the level design are all superb and vary greatly from one act to the next. We're eagerly awaiting the sequel! :D
Cute, engaging game (2009-03-03)
Goo is very cute, not violent, and full of all sorts of edge-of-your-seat, problem solving excitement. It's deceptively easy at first, but gets harder quickly.
One of the negative reviews mentioned that the soundtrack was annoying. It's impossible to argue with taste, but I enjoy the mildly epic quality of the music. It supports the feeling that you're not just having fun or solving a puzzle, but actually engaged in some great and benevolent work. Well, maybe that's selling it a little hard, but I think the music works.
