If all else fails, you may also have the option to skip the level completely (but the number of skips is limited). There are “Time Bugs” that can be clicked to undo moves if you mess up (which can happen quite often thanks to the wobbly nature of the goo). Signs located on every level will often contain some sort of hint or tip to help guide you. Fortunately, even less experienced puzzle players will have some help.

World of Goo is quite easy to pickup and play, but very difficult to master. These give a great reason to replay the game and levels several times over. Use the goo to build a tower as tall as possible and compare to others across the world. Goo collected during levels can be used in free-building in the World of Goo Corporation mode. Additionally, you can replay levels over and over to try and better the number of goo you collect, the number of moves you took, or the time the level took to complete. The wide variety of levels and goo type means that even though you're doing basically the same thing for every level (building toward a pipe), it will feel new and different every time. There are a surprising large number of goo types slowly introduced whose unique properties are required to complete the levels. Some goo can only be placed once, while other goo can be placed and replaced. There is goo that will act as balloons and lift your structures, or matches and spread fire. The goo balls you need to collect come in various colors and looks with their own unique properties.

The levels aren't the only thing that is diverse.
