If you like puzzle games that takes "puzzle" to a new level, than yes. I highly recommend it.

It is definitely worth the money, no question. If you're going to buy a game on wiiware, make it world of goo.

I think it has less broad appeal than many people claim, but yes it is an amazing game.

the style is great, the story is nice, the whole game is charming, but i have to admit i lost my interest in chapter 3 or 4 when it got really difficult. anyways, it's still worth 15 bucks for sure.

I think it's overrated, too expensive, and I couldn't get into it. It's not a bad game though.

Amazing game, you will wish there was more puzzles. By far the best Wiiware game ive gotten, and that includes about 20.

too expensive? 15 bucks? i'm really not the guy who spends a lot of money for games, but imo 15 $/euros isnt too much for this game. but nevermind, i'd say that punch out is too expensive ;)

I guess so... but $15 seems like a lot for a download to me, especially when you can buy some great retail games for $20 on the Wii and other systems and actually get a hard copy.

If you liked The Incredible Machine but hated the depth and challenge, you'll love World of Goo.

YES! It is the best indie game I have ever played. Thinking about its development brings hope into my mind for truly artistic and experimental games.

I thought it was $10 in NA?

If you're a fan of puzzle games, I found it enjoyable. Few games are the greatest things ever ... but for a discount downloadable game, I got my fun out of it.

Figuring I spent quite a few hours with it ... it was far cheaper than a movie or many other things that are done in just a few hours. Heck, I probably drank $30 of beer while playing it ... so I guess the beer is overrated as it cost a lot more than the game for the same period of enjoyment.

It's great fun and worth the $15, that's for sure. I thought it was a bit overrated - it's not quite an addicting puzzle game, and I wish it were longer - but it's still fun. It actually has a pretty cool "story", and the presentation is wonderful. There's even humor in it.

From what I've read and heard, it's overrated. I still think it's great, though. Just not that ultra super awesome many say it is.

Haven't bothered to finish it, and I don't really feel like playing it again.
