Product Description
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

Customer Reviews

Simple, fun, addictive and has personality (2009-04-29)
The only thing I don't like is there aren't enough levels! But, I've started over from the beginning and played the whole thing through again, lots of fun.

Price is right, game is well tuned with fun graphics and music, yet simple enough to make it casual without having to memorize things.

Musique Non-Stop (2009-04-12)
I'm knocking off two stars because there's no built-in way to turn off the music. It's an otherwise marvelous game, and tons of fun.

Great Game for All (But Mac users) (2009-04-11)
I own this game for the PC and love it (downloaded my original copy through Valve's Steam). It's a great puzzle game. I tried to buy a copy for my girlfriend's MacBook Pro. Seller claims this item is for Windows XP, Vista, AND Macintosh... but it's not.

Fantastic game! (2009-04-03)
Very fun game with many levels and the ability to go back to improve your score. Hard to describe, but basically you try to connect and arrange the "goo balls" (who have little personalities, giving the creators a platform to express subtle humor throughout the game) in the best way to overcome obstacles and make it to the level's end point, then opening up the new level. Trickier than you can imagine, but loads of fun for every age. My 7 yr old happily uses up all of his daily allotment of computer game time on this, and my husband can't wait for the children to get off the computer so he can play it, too. Highly recommend this game.

Excellent game (2009-03-30)
I wasn't sure what I was getting when I purchased this game. It is great fun. This game is challenging but terribly addicting. I spent several hours on this game the first time I played it, just because I wanted to build the goos. If you are looking for a very fun, challenging, but not impossible game of building, here's the game for you.
