Cuter than it sounds
Like the original from 2008, World of Goo 2 is a physics-based puzzle game reminiscent of Lemmings in so far as there are a number of creatures (goo balls in this case) that you don't have direct control over, which you have to guide towards the level's exit without them being burnt, minced, or otherwise meeting their demise. You do this by sticking goo balls together to form structures, which the remaining goo balls will crawl across. The physics of the structures is realistic enough that if you understand why the Eiffel Tower works in real life then you'll probably be able to solve the puzzles. If you don't, then this game will teach you! While the gameplay itself is good fun, it's really only half the reason to play. The other half is the strange and beautiful, if slightly sticky world, and captivatingly mysterious story. It's impressive how something as simple as little black balls with eyes can be made to feel so alive.
