I have to recommend World of Goo! Wow. This game is really great.
The gameplay is unique and fun. The art is spectacular. The music and sound are fantastic.
I read about it a while back and finally found a free demo at Bean Stalk Games.
I bought the game before my free trial was up! They say there will be a WIN/MAC boxed product out very soon.
Viva la Goo!
