USA Today writes: "Kids of all ages love to build structures, whether it be with Tinkertoys, Legos, Erector sets, or jellybeans and toothpicks. World of Goo, a puzzle game for the computer and the Nintendo Wii, delivers one of the coolest sets of building tools: balls of squirming goo. By combining these globs of stickiness together to form structures, you solve the 48 puzzles that make up this game.
While these puzzles are tied together with an elusive story line about a big corporation that misuses these little blobs to make products, the focus of the game is solving these refreshingly unusual building puzzles."
