Free game of the week – Tower of Goo
Today’s game is not a flash game that you can play online (though it did look like a flash game). Tower of Goo is a freeware game that you download to your computer and play. No installation required.
Tower of Goo is a another type of gravity game where you build up your tower as high as you can. There seems to be no limit to how high you can build. The gameplay consist of little creepy goo balls massing at the tip of your tower, trying to get higher than the others. Here you come as a god, choosing one goo ball with your left mouse button, pull up to form a triangular frame. (see below pictures)
That’s basically it. You pull and pull until you go the highest you can go. The difficulty comes when you don’t build a wide enough base, which will cause your top to sway and finally topple. You can have unlimited topples without ending the game. The frames that topple will form a wider frame for your next ascent. The only goal you can aim for will be your personal best height.
This game is great for a minute or two short game to relax yourself between tasks. Just don’t let your boss see you.
