I played this game as a child in the 2010s. Playing it now, it has held up well in the many years since its release. It has its challenging levels, but they make the game interesting and can mostly be solved without looking up the answer. Overall, it was a very nostalgic experience and one I would recommend to others.

Please do not get this game if you enjoy 100% achievement games. It is wonderful for nostalgia but as an achievement hunter and completionist this game is literal torture. No literally, I am in pain trying to move my mouse fast and accurate enough to get an OCD completed. I would not say it is worth the price, although I am not very far yet, only on level 4 I believe

The game of my childhood. I absolutely LOVE it.
I used to have it on a CD (the polish translation was better there, or at least i think so from my memory, it's a shame they don't use any polish letters because it just looks half baked like that).

Still holds up well after roughly 17 years. What seems like a simple game is something very fun and enjoyable. Quirky humor, great music, and colorful levels. Some of the graphics can be a bit dated, though. Overall, deep with subtext and meaning... it will probably make you cry! Recommended to play with a box of Kleenex and a bag of wine.

Don't believe anyone who tells you having OCD can't be fun.
This game is old but gold. I played it back in 2009 before the tongue-in-cheek trend was common in games, and this game is a refreshing throwback. You can tell it was made by someone as a passion project and not something that was expected to make a whole lot of money. If you're a fan of World of Goo 2 then you'll love the original. The goo balls bunching up can be a little irksome at times but overall the gameplay is very fun and the world and design is very charming and whimsical with a good balance of humor and worldbuilding.
