Pros
Pro Great variety in puzzles
A lot of attention has been put into creating interesting levels with great pacing and variety throughout the game.
Pro Beautiful visual style
World of Goo is pleasing to look at. Most of the time it's very colorful and joyful, but it changes from time to time to reflect different parts of the world. Nevertheless, it is stylistically well presented throughout the game.
Pro A twisted tale
As you start playing there doesn't seem to be much of a story. A few philosophical messages left behind by the Sign Painter and a cut-scene here or there. But as you progress through the game you unearth different details about a slightly disturbing world.
Pro Good, funny music
Each level has good and very funny music.
Pro Excellent physics engine
Physics in-game take into account gravity, wind, weight of different goo-balls, structural integrity of your architectural solutions to create an addictive, "let me try this one more time"-type of gameplay.
Pro Puts your spatial reasoning to a trial
Step by step, you will come to a task that will make you fail. Will you be able to overcome it, depends on your persistence and mental rotation skills.
Pro Many hours of gameplay
Due to randomness of each level it is possible to use this game as a spatial awareness workout tool on a regular basis.
Pro Original cyberpunk story
The story is happening in the chat between levels. It seems original, and you will see it if you reach at least chapter 5. Story twists are on par with level difficulty: the further you go, the fancier the story is.
Pro Nice adaptive music that reflects the tension in realtime
Cons
Con No co-op mode
The PC version does not include the co-op mode that was included in the Wii Ware version.
Con Steep difficulty curve
The difficulty drops down a bit in the beginning of each chapter, but overall it constantly increases, and only a few players will reach the end of the story.
