After an eagerly anticipated wait, fans of the puzzle game genre can rejoice as World of Goo (mobile) returns with a full sequel. Developed by 2DBOY and Tomorrow Corporation, World of Goo 2 has now launched on mobile platforms, alongside its release on Steam, PlayStation 5, and iOS. This marks a significant expansion for the franchise, offering players new ways to engage with the quirky physics-based puzzles they've come to love.
A Ton of New Stuff
World of Goo 2 Mobile introduces a plethora of exciting new features, including over 30 additional achievements to unlock. A notable addition is the options menu, a first for any game developed by 2DBOY or Tomorrow Corporation, enhancing player control and customization.
Originally released on Windows in October 2008, the first World of Goo enchanted players with its unique gameplay, challenging them to construct bizarre bridges and towers using goo balls while battling the forces of physics and gravity. The sequel ups the ante by introducing realistic flowing, splashing, and viscous liquid mechanics. Players can manipulate these liquids like rivers, transform them into Goo Balls, extinguish fires, and navigate through increasingly complex puzzles.
World of Goo 2 Mobile also introduces a variety of new Goo types, such as Jelly Goo, Liquid Launchers, Growing Goo, Shrinking Goo, and Explosive Goo, among others. These new species of Goo promise to add layers of complexity and fun as players experiment with their unique properties and interactions.
There Are a Lot of Levels to Chew Through in the World of Goo 2 Mobile
The game unfolds through a new narrative arc spread across five chapters, comprising over 60 levels, each packed with additional challenges. The storyline spans hundreds of thousands of years, providing a rich backdrop to the gameplay. Players will collaborate with a mysterious company that touts its eco-friendly initiatives, tasked with collecting as much Goo as possible. However, as players delve deeper, they'll uncover hidden agendas and unravel the true narrative behind the company's motives.
After all these years, the beloved goo balls are back, ready for players to dive into the new adventures. World of Goo 2 is available for purchase on the Google Play Store at a price of $9.99, offering hours of engaging puzzle-solving fun.
