### 2/5 — Not worth it

*2026-04-18, version 1.0.1*

If you feel nostalgic, just replay the first game. This one looks like a cheap parody

### 2/5 — Could be fun.

*2026-02-07, version 1.0.1*

Probably a fun game, can’t play it though because there is no way to mute the music. Hopefully they will add a way to mute it.

### 3/5 — ну так себе

*2026-01-24, version 1.0.1*

очень дорого, половина уровней тупо из первой части, даже локации те же, сюжет ну норм, кароче 899 оверпрайс за это

### 4/5 — Audio glitches?

*2025-12-25, version 1.0.1*

Is this really how it is supposed to be sound ? The music goes in and out and pops... I can't find a way to turn it off....I don't like to play games muted so yikes please fix this. I love the first game and will play this once it's fixed or can be disabled. It hurts my ears and makes me sick to my stomach.

### 3/5 — Difficult

*2025-09-11*

Many levels are really difficult and I either needed to skip them or refer to walkthrough videos.  I liked the new properties of the different goo balls though.

### 3/5 — Fun but crashes

*2025-08-23, version 1.0.1*

Crashes 4 levels in on Soggy Bottom and is unplayable since can’t progress.

### 4/5 — Syncing???

*2025-08-18, version 1.0.1*

World of Goo 2 is the same type of awesome as the it’s predecessor. However, my only issue is that if I try to switch to play on my IPad(which is preferred because screen size) it does not sync with the save on my iPhone. Please fix so I can play on the go too! Thanks!

### 2/5 — No settings?

*2025-08-16, version 1.0.1*

I can’t seem to find any settings to turn down the music. Am I missing something?

### 2/5 — Good Game, Unplayable Bug

*2025-08-14, version 1.0.1*

I couldn’t find anywhere to put a bug report for this game, so I’m putting it here. If the bug is fixed, I will edit my review.

In the level “Coolant Circulator Infiltrator”, my game crashes whenever the flaming goo blob touches the coolant. This prevents me from completing the level and progressing past it.

I’m using an iPhone 8 (model MQ6V2LL/A) running iOS 16.7.11.

### 4/5 — 希望设置里可以更改分辨率

*2025-06-25, version 1.0.1*

游戏分辨率不好调整，图形比较模糊，不够清晰，另外希望推出地图编辑器功能。

### 5/5 — 太感动了居然有续作

*2025-06-22, version 1.0.1*

回忆童年了

### 5/5 — Игра детства вернулась

*2025-06-19, version 1.0.1*

Несмотря на достаточно высокую цену за игру, которая проходится за пару вечеров, едва увидев вторую часть легенды, да еще и в мобильном формате, я не задумываясь выложила свои кровные
Общее впечатление однозначно хорошее, но ряд новых механик кажутся не особо интересными, и многие уровни практически полностью копируют первую часть

### 4/5 — Awesome !!! :D

*2025-06-13, version 1.0.1*

I absolutely love it. my dad told me how to play this game, It’s awesome. But the thing is it drains my battery way too much. I was at 100 and now I’m at 66 which is not good and I only was playing for like 10 minutes. Overall, it’s really good. I love it.

### 1/5 — It’s been a YEAR

*2026-06-15, version 1.0.1*

Since your last update. Please! Fix the sound options so that it can be turned off without me having to turn all the sound on my device off!  I only just purchased and opened this game and already very frustrated with that aspect. I adored the previous version and have high hopes for this one, but please fix that minor issue for your fans. Once that is fixed, I’ll happily give you 5 stars provided there are no other bugs I run into.

### 1/5 — “No iCloud save.”

*2025-11-01, version 1.0.1*

“This game has no iCloud save. I wanted to continue on another device but have to start over. Even games from decades ago had this feature—why doesn’t this one?”

### 1/5 — Very difficult

*2025-09-09*

I regret buying this, it’s incredibly frustrating and difficult

### 1/5 — Still Constantly crashing

*2025-08-31, version 1.0.1*

Still cannot play this game and have heard nothing in spite of leaving a message here.

I am really disappointed I really enjoyed the original and I can’t play this because it crashes. Not acceptable.

### 1/5 — Impossible

*2025-07-17, version 1.0.1*

### 1/5 — Impossible

*2025-06-08, version 1.0.1*

I have given up I’m 77 years old wasted what little money I have on a game that’s impossible to complete at my age!

### 1/5 — Might be good?

*2025-05-18, version 1.0.1*

I loved the first game. I might like this one too, it just keeps crashing on level 3.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

I really enjoyed the first game and wanted to like this one too but I‘m unable to really play it since it keeps crashing.

### 5/5 — Follow up

*2026-06-23, version 1.0.1*

Worthy follow up. Visually impressive, narratively complex and certainly unique.

### 5/5 — The hidden gem

*2026-06-11, version 1.0.1*

The first game was my childhood. So I had to play this one too. 
Thanks to the creators for this masterpiece. The only game that stood out from the others in gameplay, graphics, and music!👏🏻

### 5/5 — Exceptionnel

*2026-04-01*

Une suite qui réussis à faire encore mieux que le premier, un jeu vraiment exceptionnel !

### 5/5 — A worthy sequel

*2026-01-26, version 1.0.1*

The original world of Goo was one of my favourite iPads games. I was surprised to see this sequel appear after so long but it doesn’t disappoint. It captures the style, challenge and playability of the original with enough novelty to keep it interesting. Recommended!

### 5/5 — Wir lieben es

*2025-12-12*

Man muss nachdenken, man muss üben, man muss rätseln. Aber alles zu schaffen. Sehr sympathisch, die Käsebällchen. Wir freuen uns auf Teil 3!

### 5/5 — I’m too good

*2025-12-09, version 1.0.1*

I beat it in 8 minutes I’m just too good make a 3rd one please I want more

### 5/5 — My favorite game of 2025

*2025-11-01, version 1.0.1*

Have never been disappointed by a 2DBoy game :)

### 5/5 — Подскажите

*2025-08-27, version 1.0.1*

А как свистеть?

### 5/5 — 童年回忆，制作质量非常高

*2025-08-04, version 1.0.1*

比第一代质量提升了不少，关卡也有很多变难了，不过非常值得购买，卖20美金也不为过！

### 5/5 — The Magic is Back!

*2025-07-14, version 1.0.1*

My experience with the first WoG changed my relationship with gaming. I saw the brilliant heights that are possible when true artists use this digital medium using free, unrestrained creativity and lodes of digital savvy.

WoG was something very special, and experiences like that are almost always disappointing when you try to relive them.
Well I’m playing WoG 2 now and my delighted giggling was not expected. Yes, I was thrilled to see the new release and bought it immediately, but I didn’t dare get my hopes up too high.
I’m overjoyed to report that this sequel has all the magic of the original.

I won’t spoil the fun by dissecting the game and all of its joyous content. I will simply suggest that you get this game now, play it on the largest screen you have available, and experience it for yourself. 

This is as good as gaming gets.
