World of Goo Review


World of Goo is the ideal game for an engineer. This game takes place in the world of goo(hence the name) and you are the creator of structures made of goo balls. With the help of the Sign Painter(not really), you can get make structures to help the goo balls get to the world of goo corporation's pipes.

The concept is pretty simple and easy to understand. you take one goo ball, see where it will be placed, and let it go. Just like that, but where you put decides your fate. With certain obstacles that will pop the goo balls like windmills and gears, the game stays interesting. there are also different kinds of goo balls with different powers that make the levels fun. The graphics are great and do all they really need to do and little bit more.



The sound is entertaining and fun. Its similar to loco roco, so you know it'll get stuck in your head.The gameplay is great. Your probably gonna spend a good 10 rushing through this and about 12-15 hours taking your time, and that's not even counting the online building.

During online building, you build your own tower of goo in the "Tower of Goo" section, which takes all of your extra goo balls and lets you build as high as you can go while looking at how high other players around the world got their towers. You'll probably go back and try to beat your highscores with the OCD mode, which basically gives you a limit on how many moves you can make, or try to beat other highscores online.
