Players can pick up the hit puzzler, World of Goo on the Epic Games Store for free until May 16.

Back in 2017, World of Goo made the jump to Nintendo Switch, giving players even more ways to enjoy the classic puzzler. If you’ve never played World of Goo, then you’re missing out. The gameplay is quirky, and the overall features of the title make it a joy to dive into and spend hours playing. It’s also astounding when you take a look back at the game’s development.

Developed by 2D Boy, World of Goo was created, designed, and completely engineered by just two people. It’s a huge deal considering the overall breadth of the title, as well as the way that it handles physics as a whole. Make sure you don’t miss out on this classic puzzler and download it from the Epic Games Store before its limited-time free run ends.

World of Goo is just the latest title to join the list of titles that have appeared for free on the Epic Games Store. While Epic Games has received quite a bit of criticism over the past few months concerning their deals and the way they handle their store, it’s always nice to see classics like World of Goo being made available to even more users with free promotions like this. If you absolutely refuse to use the Epic Games Store, then you can still purchase World of Goo off of Steam.
