World of Goo Now Available For iPhone

By

When I first bought my iPad 2, I did so for one particularly sordid use. Coming home, I drew the blinds, closed the bedroom door and turned my iPad on with a moan of anticipation. When my girlfriend came home from work unexpectedly an hour later, she discovered me in the dark — startled but defiant — smearing goo all over my tablet.

I speak, of course, about 2D Boy’s multi-platform, physics puzzler sensation, World of Goo. It’s one of the best games on the iPad, selling over 125,000 copies in its first month on the App Store alone. And now? World of Goo HD has gotten a universal update, allowing owners of the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and last two generations of the iPod Touch to enjoy their own sordid goo-smearing session.

If you already own World of Goo HD on iPad, the universal update is free. If you only want to play the game on your iPhone, though, you can purchase the handheld version sans the HD for just $0.99. Trust me, that price makes World of Goo the best value on the App Store, bar none.
