Every note resonates with the game’s soul, evoking emotions ranging from joy to contemplation, ensuring that "World of Goo" becomes not just a game but an unforgettable odyssey. Furthermore, the narrative, though subtle, weaves a tale of ambition, creation, and the beauty of collaboration.

A legend in indie game history, World of Goo is a physics-based puzzle game about getting as many goo balls as possible into a pipe by constructing all sorts of structures (e.g. bridge) using these balls. Incredibly sophisticated physics allowing endless possibilities to solve the puzzles; Imaginative levels with optional OCD challenge often requiring mastery of the mechanics and out-of-the-box thinking; beautiful animation now remastered with high-resolution; wonderful audio design and sensational soundtracks; strange lore and world-building imbued with dark humour… This is a title to behold and pay tribute to. Even if you are not into physics/puzzle games (I am not, and I have no intention to finish the game), you should have it and see what merely two indie developers can achieve, in 2008!

This game is ageless and cannot be improved upon - It is perfect. If you like physics puzzles, this is a must-have!

Feb. 2024

I've played this for 4 hours on Steam, but probably 40 off CD-ROM on my old machine. It's perfect for any kid (or overgrown kid) that likes building things and solving puzzles. It introduces new mechanics at a good pace, it lets you plough on after a skin-of-your-teeth success or go back and try to do better, according to personality. It's fun and colourful and not too hard, and it's full of one-more-try energy. World of Goo 2 is coming in 2024. Play this first to be ready for it!
