Gooed to the Screen!

The day before UT classes began, I went to a Wal-Mart nearby my apartment with my friends to buy groceries and such for the week. As I was strolling to an fro the isles, I decided to take a quick stop at the electronic department to see what new video games were released. As I went by the PC games section, a particular game caught me attention. I picked it up and read its title in great curiosity, "The World of Goo". It seemed quite an odd title, which lured me to read even further. I opened its tri-fold-like cover to find out what this world of goo is all about. As soon I saw the game play pictures and read through its captions briefly, I new it was some type of puzzle game, and knowing me, I'm a sucker for puzzle games (Not to mention rpgs and fighting games as well). It was not my intention to buy a video game on my trip to Wal-Mart but for $14.88 plus tax and being a puzzle game it seemed to be a pretty good bargain to me. Nowadays to find a decent game may cost from $20 to $60 plus dollars and with the economy going on as of right now it's best to be smart with your money. Anyways I needed to have some sort of free time from my studies.
So as you may have guessed, I bought this game and to be honest I am glad I did. This game is a puzzle with a physics engine in the mix. It's quite addicting and really fun to see what you can do with the blobs of goo. Love the look of the game, the gameplay is really simple, and the music blends in well. All in all it is a musts for puzzle fanatics and those who want to try something ingenious and refreshing.
