Tower of Goo - Chapter 1 - Level 9

Higher and higher! Those of you who played the predecessor (tower of goo) to world of goo will recognise the format of this level. Build your goo as high as you can, they're a lot more resilient than you think!

Collect 25 to complete.

Collect 68 or more to obtain OCD status.

  2. Try to maintain your balance throughout the level. When you start to get quite high and build a thinner structure speed is of the essence.

  3. That level is driving me mad. I'm trying to balance that tower until I reach that sign on the right -there it starts shaking- and speed up the rest. Without success: The tower crashes over and over again. Gnnn....

  6. I'm so glad you were generous enough to create this site, but for the life of me, I still can't get some of these solutions to work! Bah.

  8. I finally got OCD on this level! It took me a really long time to get it though. My tower kept tilting to the side and then falling over.

  9. I managed to get 77 after about 30 odd attempts XD

  10. I have finally made it!! It seems to help if you build a stronger foundation, even though it will be harder to get OCD with this tactic. It helped me get the level done at all anyway.

  11. aweful level... especially so near the start of the game... the game is driving me crazy now... waste of money

  12. The f-ing things climb too fast, making it top-heavy and collapsing the whole structure. Doesn't matter how fast I build. I just don't see them ascending that fast in the video.

  13. I done this level on my 4th try

  16. You can skip 3 times... Skip it and come back if it is making you crazy.

  17. You guys have to be terrible... 30 times? I got this on the fourth try, three to be honest. 1st try I just blew through the level to finish the game, 2nd I got 64, third try I only got 36 because it was an experimental, fourth try got 70. Its an easy OCD. Without the experimental tower, thats just 2 trys.

  18. I did this on my first try.
    but now I wanna get the OCD because I have the OCD on all other levels. it has been five months that I'm trying. It made me mad. I was going to suicide that I thought of a walkthrough. I hope it works.......

  20. idk how you did it. i copied your structure over 57 times and i cannot get it to stop moving. the only difference i noted about your goo balls is that there were not swarming the top of your structure. how did u do that? granted, my game is pretty laggy, but i shouldn't have 50+ goos rushing the very tip., so my question is..

    #1 how did u make your goos stay at the bottom?

    #2 how do u make a thinner structure when each goo i place down widens to a given length? strange for black goos

  21. IF YOU HAVE FOUND OTHER WAYS OF GETTING OCD ON THIS LEVEL, POST THEM. VIDEOS, DIAGRAMS, PICTURES, ANYTHING. THIS IS THE MOST RIDICULOUS LEVEL FOR OCD THUS FAR AND I MUST SAY THAT I HAVE SPENT OVER A DAY TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT. THE VIDEO POSTED WAS NICE BUT DIDN'T HELP AS I HAVE TRIED THAT SAME EXACT BUILD AND ALL IT GOT ME WAS A TOWER COLLAPSING ON ITSELF.

    PLEASE POST MORE IDEAS. IM KNOW IM NOT JUST SPEAKING FOR MYSELF WHEN I SAY THIS OCD BLOWS

    ReplyDelete
  22. what i did by accident was i allowed half the structure to break by crashing to the side but not complete by having strong foundation, those goo balls you'll get again, now use them to make it better :) it worked hehehe

    ReplyDelete
  23. ok there's another way....
    whistle is your friend!! use it to gather goos in a way that they balance your tower....when its twindling move them down, when its going one side whistle them to the other side....
    it helped me get as close 66 :( but i know with combination of that it can be done...use whistle, don't just keep seeing when its dwindling, and yes being fast in combination of whistle does help...
    but use it properly, else whistle may have drastic results too.... :p

  24. WELL, DUNNO FOR YA ALL, BUT THE EXTRA GOO BALLS HE GOT THERE WERE 22....WHEN THE NEEDED TO COMPLETE WERE 25 AND HE GOT 74 O_o MATHS THEY CALL IT

  25. We have no clue how to do this flipping level we only got this game yesterday for the Wii and it is freaking impossible and hints we just dont seem to be able to do it fast enough

    ReplyDelete
  26. I've tried this level literally dozens of times and still cannot pass it. This is a bad game design decision to have the difficulty level spike so exponentially. I removed this from my system fearing equally frustrating difficulty spikes down the road in this game.

  27. I have completed this mission after many hours with 76 gooes

  28. I watched this video and got ocd my first try, maybe you ppl cant do a good base because i got half way to the pipe and it started to tilt and i stopped and counter balanced it to get it straight again and continued up and got it. it was easy for me after watching this vid.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I went back and replayed this and got 81 goos quickly. I am an architect of goo, if you know what that is.

  30. im on level 4 but i havent pass this mission. its hard. I want to think that is because i use the mouse of my laptop

    ReplyDelete
  31. LOL You can either let this one make you REALLY angry and want to break things, or you can laugh about it. I still haven't beat it but each time I get like 2 meters or w/e from the top... (w/e the measurement is in the game).. granted, when I try to place the things really fast, I usually go just out of range of placing them and they fly through the air which slows me down BIG TIME!!! I still love love love this game because some levels are easy, but then they throw a crazy hard one at you!!! It's def. a nice change of pace.

    P.S. For those of you saying you can't progress because of this level, you can skip it and continue with the other levels and go onto the next little world thing without ever having to complete this one. :)

  32. POS Game I hate this level no matter what I do it topples

    ReplyDelete
  33. AAAaaaahhhh!!! I can't take this anymore! The programmer must be a sadist!

    ReplyDelete
  34. I just got OCD with 80 goo balls. After building the foundation, working fast and precise is key to getting this level.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Here's my thing: I can't stack them accurately because my FINGER is in the way of not only the ball of goo, but the white lines that orient what the shape will take of the lines between the balls. Are the walk-throughs created with a stylus?

    ReplyDelete
  36. If you want to get whistle you have to play into the chapter 2 first. finish the leap hole level and go back to this level. use the whistle by clicking left mouse and goos will follow your whistle! :)

    ReplyDelete
  37. Try using the whistle to keep the goo's toard the bottom to keep it from being top heavy... remeber they love the whistle its irrestible to them

    ReplyDelete
  38. whistle??...what whistle????

  39. goodmorning anybody have its cheats or trainers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tell fast

  40. For all who are having difficulty with this level: remember, you have an enormous number of goo balls. You can build a very broad base on your tower - five or six or seven goo balls across - then gradually narrow the tower as you get higher, and it should work fine. You can narrow the tower as you get closer to the top and it will still be relatively stable, and you should still have enough goo balls to complete.

    I gave up trying to use the approach in this video, and instead built a tower that was much wider at the bottom and toward the middle, and was easily able to beat it with plenty of goo balls to spare.

    As for beating it with OCD . . . well, that's what OCD is there for, to be a headache-inducing challenge. But it should be relatively easy to beat this without getting OCD if you build a wide enough tower.

  41. I was really liking this game up to this level... like some others have posted, my fingers are in the way of actually positioning the stupid globs in the right places... have spent hours trying to solve this level, and am so frustrated that I now HATE this game. HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE.
