Description

"iPad Game of the Year" - TouchArcade
"iPad Game of the Year" - MetaCritic

IMPORTANT: This is a big game and requires either an iPad, or iPhone 3GS or newer, or a 3rd gen iPod Touch or newer. It must be downloaded over a Wi-Fi connection.

Beautiful and surprising, the millions of Goo Balls who live in the World of Goo are curious to explore - but they don't know that they are in a game, or that they are extremely delicious.

This is the FULL award winning game, now on iPad. Drag and drop living, squirming, talking, globs of goo to build structures, bridges, cannonballs, zeppelins, and giant tongues.

Mysterious Levels - Each level is strange and dangerously beautiful, introducing new puzzles, areas, and the creatures that live in them.

World of Goo Balls - Along the way, undiscovered new species of Goo Ball, each with unique abilities, come together to ooze through reluctant tales of discovery, love, conspiracy, beauty, electric power, and the third dimension.

The Sign Painter - Someone is watching you.

World of Goo Corporation - Congratulations! World of Goo Corporation is the Global Leader in Goo and Goo Related Product, including World of Goo Corporation Trademark Brand Soft Drink Beverage and World of Goo Corporation Trademark Brand Facial Exfoliating Lotion. Succulent!

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. World of Goo Corporation is contractually obligated to state that everyone is a winner and is enthusiastic to celebrate everyone's tower building opportunities equally.

Congratulations, and good luck!

Customer Reviews

Incredible. (5 stars)
A standout game that is very polished. Even if the gameplay doesn't win you over at first, it'll grow on you, guaranteed. It's also a visual treat in every level.

Way overhyped, cumbersome and not even HD (2 stars)
I just couldn't find much to like here. It takes excessive persistence just to figure out how to navigate the menus. I guess I'm in a minority here, but I just couldn't squeeze any actual fun out of the gameplay. And having your finger block your view of what it is you're manipulating is a seriously broken mechanic.

And, dude, charging extra money for the "HD" version, which isn't HD on the iPhone 4: really not cool.

The gameplay is great, the music is great, the narrations are great... (5 stars)

The Good:
Everything about this game is great. I had never played the PC or Wii versions of this game so I don't know how it compares, but this game is just awesome. The music is great and really relaxing and goes well with the game. The controls are pretty responsive and there isn't much lagging. For $10, this
