Released on October 13 2008, World of Goo is a computer game, created by 2D Boy - a startup created by two ex-EA employees. The game itself is a visually appealing 2D puzzle game in which the user builds structures in order to deliver goo balls (which also act as building block pieces) to a pipe exit. A loose storyline also helps bring a sense of importance to the users progression. Available for Windows, Linux, OSX and the Nintendo Wii, the graphics requirements for the game are rather low, and thus make the game much more accessible by the entire PC market.

Pros
- game is not graphically intensive - does not require a dedicated video
card, onboard should be fine
- puzzle gameplay is accessible to people of all ages
- Nice contemporary art style
- "online multiplayer mode" requires extra goo found in single player mode - good incentive to go back and perfect your strategies
- different types of goo have different abilities and physical properties - makes for interesting game play and strategies
- runs on Linux
Cons
- no level creator
- Too short
- storyline makes no sense at all
- game got really innovative and challenging towards the middle, and then got progressively easier
