There are games where you build towers from blocks or other building materials, but here in the World of Goo, the towers you create are of little goo balls that make cute sounds. The conglomerate Goo Corporation is collecting goo and it is the player’s job to get the goo balls into the vacuum pipes. With a sign painter giving hints along the way and inspirational music throughout, this game is simple enough for kids grade one and up, and addicting enough for the older kids and parents to want to play. Each level is more complicated and the goo takes on different traits but the helpful sign painter is there to give you tips along the way.
