Good game, terrible bug

I would love to give this app a better review, I played it years ago on a different device and recently decided to redownload it on this one. Unfortunately, every time the app closes it goes back to the saved file screen when reopened. I select the game that I have saved and despite being logged in on the same account it says that’s not my game and that I have to start over on a new file. Long story short, you can’t access games once the app is closed (and it crashes on its own frequently) so every time you play you have to start over. Would love if this could get fixed so I can give a better review! It really is a fun game when you can actually play it

Unplayable

Crashes upon launch, and when you do get it to work, crashes after a couple of levels. With a successful reboot you have to start a new file too since it won’t let you access your own saves, even if you just accidentally tap the saves icon. You’re locked to playing the first few levels essentially.

its good it just has one huge issue

its a good game and a fun physics based puzzle but i rated it only 3 stars because it has a glitch/bug where you make a save file, play and quit the game and when you go back in that save file is now useless because it doesn’t detect that you’re signed in on gamecenter and the save is linked to gamecenter so you cant play without making a new save and starting to the very beginning

Help

This game is really fun but sometimes when I exit the game and try to go back into it it says it’s the wrong profile or it isn’t mine and I can’t access it even if I start a new game and and exit it does the same thing

Really nice game

I steal remember that I played this game in my childhood and one of those day I was searching searching and finally found it and it have the same feelings and if I say true it’s very nice game.

No Settings

Why can I not control the sound? I mean I’m not asking for control on the resolution or anything complicated, I just want to listen to my music while I play, not the game’s. Please direct me on how to turn off the sound, or add this option. This game is so flawless, it’s so fun, I just want to get rid of the sound. Thank you.

Great game but one problem

I played this game on my great grandpa’s iPad and loved it. I never get games that cost money, but my mom let me get sense I loved it soo much. It was the only game I have played sense then, until I realized every time I exit out of the game and reopen it, I can’t go into my file. It says it is not my account and then I have to delete it and restart. I really like this game just it doesn’t save your progress which is very disappointing.

Game Needs Update ASAP!

This game needs to be updated for the latest iPhone displays, also Apple is reportedly removing apps older than 2 years that haven’t been updated soon, please devs update this game, it would be a shame for the game to get removed from the App Store.

Crash

Once a great game, but now when you try to open it crashes immediately.
I would suppose it did not make it through the updates to iOS. It needs to be removed from the App Store or updated

Spectacular game I am absolutely unable to play.

Love it. I love this game so much. But buy it for a different platform. A fatal glitch prevents you from opening your save file after the first time you close the app. Unless you plan on playing all in one sitting, don't buy it here.

Save access glitch fix

So I just bought this game because I always used to play it and loved it but everytime I tried to access my save it wouldn’t let me and I have seen many people complaining about this but I found a fix and all you need to do is sign out of your Game Center account and it will let you access your save since this game hasn’t had an update for 4 years they probably won’t fix this so this is the only fix I know of I hope this helps :)

Wonderful game but won’t let you into your saved files

I played this game on a computer first when it was out as a CD, found it here years later and had to get it.
The game itself is fantastic, it’s challenging and highly addictive.
However, there have been issues with the game crashing suddenly, but recently it’s started denying me access to any save files.
Says that it’s an invalid profile selection and that it belongs to (my profile). When opening the app is shows I’m logged in and will even show it in the Home Screen. I haven’t been able to fix it, and if you start another file it will only do the same thing again.

It would be great to have this fixed because it really is a great game, hope it’s taken care of soon.

Game Center issues

The game is wonderful… but there are some issues. The game will not recognize my account after I exit game and play later. It says you cannot access it because it belongs to (my account name) when as the game loads it says “signed in as (my account name)”
This makes it so I have to finish the game in one go. This is a major issue in my opinion. ( I play on an iPad Air)

No return

I love it but it won’t let me go back to the world if I closed the app or if I wanted to go in another world.

Needs update/optimization for new hardware

I love World of Goo. It’s always had a special place in my heart. I originally played and beat it on the Wii, but I’ve had the iOS app on my phone and iPad for a long time. I recently opened it up on my 13 Pro, and noticed how it’s not optimized for any of the newer hardware. It immediately crashed a few times. The game does not fill the screen at all. I really hope this game gets some attention and is given an update to run more smoothly on newer devices.

Love world of goo, note about Game Center crash

I played this game on PC back when it first came out and loved it. Of course it feels right at home on iOS.

I downloaded it to our daughters iPad and she is liking it a lot, however, she did run into a problem where the game started crashing and not letting her open her game save.

If you get crashes or an “invalid profile” error try signing out of Game Center. That is what fixed it for us.

Awesome game

However I’ve tried to get a response from the developers to fix the issue of the game crashing for no reason or not opening on world 2. It’s a little aggravating because I love this game but can’t play it. Please respond or fix the issue.

Great game but one horrific bug

I had played this game for years on a separate device so I decided to buy it on this current device too. Everything was fine until chapter 2 when the game suddenly crashed and closed itself. I successfully reopened the app but to find myself at the save file screen instead of the normal chapter selection screen. When I tried to select my save file it said that I wasn’t the player that owned the save file despite it saying at the top of the screen when I reopened the app that I was indeed the same player. I then closed the app again and reopened it again to find that it crashed again instantly, it did this a few more times before allowing me to access my save file again. This again happened in chapter 3 and as of writing this I have not been able to get back to my save file. Many would argue that it would be easy to get back to where I was but I had gotten OCD on all levels before chapter 3 and I had even done some OCDs in chapter 3 which was hours of work and annoyance. Please fix this if possible 2D, thanks for reading and have a good day.

This is awesome!

My brother and I loved this game as a kid. We were so excited playing it, it’s amazing and well thought out. My only problem is every time I try to get back into my profile it won’t work. It just says that account belongs to someone else. So every time I have to start over. Please fix it so I can play

Impossible

Why did you make it almost impossible to get all the OCD’s
