【Character Introduction】
【Sign Painter】
It can be considered an old friend of first-generation players. As the only source of information in the game, these signs play a crucial role. Relying on this "guiding light," players can more easily understand the gameplay and what's happening in the world. However, who exactly creates these signs? And how does "he" have insight into everything occurring in this mysterious world of Goo?



【Goo Balls】
After fifteen years, the Goo Balls, once thought to be extinct, have reappeared through cracks caused by earthquakes! Like in the previous game, players will manipulate these sticky, wondrous creatures called "Goo" to build bridges, construct towers, alter terrain, and more, reaching the goal—the pipe—when meeting the level conditions. In this new episode, players will encounter brand new types of Goo Balls! Oh? Why are they gathering together? It feels like they might be planning something... 



【World of Goo Corporation】
The once bankrupt "World of Goo Corporation" has risen again, rebranding itself as the "World of Goo Organization" to reshape its corporate image. This entity, championing "revival, rejuvenation, revitalization, and rebirth," claims to be dedicated to providing more sustainable and eco-friendly products, and has once again begun collecting Goo Balls. Wait, what are they doing at the party? They're putting hooks into the water... Are they trying to catch some strange aquatic creatures? 



【Distant Observer】
A mysterious observer from a distant planet, using an astronomical telescope, intently gazes at the World of Goo. He seems to have a keen interest in this world full of Goo Balls. But who is he? Why is he observing this planet? Is he searching for something? Or does he have ulterior motives? How will his observations influence the development trajectory of the World of Goo... 



【Beauty Generator】
Originally a massive power plant called the "Beauty Generator" that used Goo Balls to produce beauty juice and supply electricity to most of the planet, it too has experienced fifteen years, finally unable to continue producing beauty juice, leading to its forced to shutdown her operations. The planet's inhabitants discovered they had lost their Wi-Fi connection. The remnants of the generator were lifted into the sky. Oh? Near the top of the Beauty Generator, it seems there's still a Jelly Goo moving about... 

【Atomic Express】
The "World of Goo Organization" has built a high-speed train. It continuously pumps energy generated by Goo Balls into the engine, accelerating the train on unfinished tracks. As the speed continues to increase, this unprecedented velocity causes the space-time around the train to start warping. Can the speed of laying tracks ahead keep up with this constantly accelerating train?

【Ye Olde Reckonator 】
Players can not only experience the new "World of Goo™ 2," but also get a sneak peek at the sequels to the "World of Goo™" series after 2024—"World of Goo™ 9," "World of Goo™ 11," and "World of Goo™ 17" here! Suddenly, a voice emanates from a large, brightly glowing television: "As long as this computer stays on, I will exist forever, and the memories of these games will always remain vivid..." This mysterious voice calls itself the "Curator." What exactly is the true identity of this "Curator"?



 

【《World of Goo™ 2》Story Overview】
Fifteen years flew by in a flash, and our lovable "Goo" balls popped up again through some earthquake cracks! The formerly bankrupt World of Goo Corporation has made a comeback, rebranding itself as the "World of Goo Organization." This self-proclaimed eco-friendly institution has resumed its Goo ball collecting activities. One day, they lowered a hook into the water, aiming at a giant creature. This creature grabbed the hook and surfaced, immediately shooting a burst of flame towards space.

100,000 years later, an observer from a distant planet was drawn to that flame. Silently, through a telescope, he watched everything unfolding on that faraway world...



【Introduction to the 《World of Goo™ 》 Series】
Welcome to The World of Goo™!

After a sixteen-year hiatus, the independent game "World of Goo™" by the small-scaled studio 2DBOY is back with its sequel "World of Goo™ 2," set to make a strong return to the Nintendo Switch™ platform on November 28, 2024. This once immensely popular game received high praise from numerous media and garnered multiple accolades, including a high score of 9.5 from IGN, as well as the Design Innovation Award and Technical Excellence Award at the 2008 Independent Games Festival (IGF) in the United States. 

This innovative puzzle adventure game cleverly combines principles of physics and fluid simulation, challenging players' spatial thinking and problem-solving abilities. Players need to manipulate the sticky and wondrous creatures called "Goo" to flexibly construct various complex structures, such as bridges and towers. The game continues the unique and distinctive art style of its predecessor, paired with touching original music, bringing players an ultimate gaming experience. The plot unfolds gradually through various cutscenes and signpost content within the game, allowing players to slowly uncover the mysteries of this gooey world. Players will experience four seasons, encountering different and new Goo balls in each season!

What appears on the surface to be an ordinary and simple building game actually contains profound meaning, continuing the clever satire of its predecessor on corporate greenwashing and commercialized environmentalism, skillfully integrating real social issues into the game.
