Nintendo Switch users can now enjoy World of Goo 2, featuring an expansion of the beloved gooey gameplay!
In an exciting development for puzzle-lovers and fans of physics-based games, the long-awaited sequel to the classic World of Goo is finally here. World of Goo 2 is now available exclusively on the Nintendo Switch.
This new instalment continues the franchise's tradition of intricate puzzle-solving, but with a twist. Each level is a dynamic physics and fluid simulation-based build, set in an evolving world that spans hundreds of thousands of years.
The gameplay mechanics are as innovative as ever. Players can manipulate goo balls in advanced ways, including tentacle manipulation and emergency escape routes. These features are showcased in player-shared videos of specific levels like "Squiddy's Bog" and "Blowfish."
World of Goo 2 offers multiple game modes to cater to different playstyles. Classic Mode navigates through rotating rings and vertical columns, emphasizing timing and precision. Reverse Mode presents the same environments and challenges moving backwards, increasing difficulty by requiring adaptation to reversed motion. Wordoku Mode is a puzzle mode involving deduction by filling grids, supported by hint options and timed challenges for additional gameplay variety.
The game is designed specifically for the Nintendo Switch, taking full advantage of its controls and hardware. Players can choose between Handheld Mode, Touch screen, Tabletop Mode, or TV Mode for gameplay. Local cooperative play is exclusive to the Nintendo Switch version of the game, allowing up to eight players to build together.
Multiplayer mode might necessitate additional accessories, sold separately. Single player can use one Joy-ConTM controller, while multiplayer might require additional controllers.
World of Goo 2 features liquid creatures for building bridges, towers, and operating machinery. The game's world is constantly evolving, offering unique challenges due to realistic simulations. Players can splash, explode, destroy, fly, and roll through solutions for each level.
It's important to note that the gameplay modes do not involve explicit sexual themes or excessive violence, making it suitable for a wide audience.
World of Goo was first explored 15 years ago, and now, with World of Goo 2, the franchise continues to push the boundaries of puzzle-solving and strategic problem-solving.
