Anyone who enjoys unusual puzzle apps with beautiful graphics, nice music and a generous dash of humor thrown in will want to get World of Goo (4.5/5 stars, all ages, normally sells for $4.99 but is FREE today only, and currently comes bundled with a $1 Amazon MP3 Store credit).
This app has been an award-winning sensation on the iPad, and now it’s available for your Kindle Fire and other Android devices.

One of the most highly celebrated independent video games ever created!
Drag and drop living, squirming, talking, globs of goo to build structures, bridges, cannonballs, zeppelins, and giant tongues!
– “Game of the Year” -MetaCritic, IGN, TouchArcade, Rock Paper Shotgun, GameTunnel
– Best Games for Android lists – NYTimes, techcrunch, pocketgamer, androidpolice, mashable, and many more
Beautiful and surprising, the millions of Goo Balls who live in the World of Goo are curious to explore – but they don’t know that they are in a game, or that they are extremely delicious.
This is the FULL award winning game, now on Amazon Apps! Drag and drop living, squirming, talking, globs of goo to build structures, bridges, cannonballs, zeppelins, and giant tongues.
Mysterious Levels – Each level is strange and dangerously beautiful, introducing new puzzles, areas, and the creatures that live in them.
World of Goo Balls – Along the way, undiscovered new species of Goo Ball, each with unique abilities, come together to ooze through reluctant tales of discovery, love, conspiracy, beauty, electric power, and the third dimension.

If World of Goo appeals to you, you might also want to consider Contre Jour (4.5/5 stars, all ages, currently priced at $1.99), a game with a similar look but different, even more varied gameplay.
Blurring the lines between games and interactive art, Contre Jour welcomes you to a hauntingly beautiful world shaped by the interplay of light and darkness.
Use your finger to morph the landscape, propelling the mysterious creature Petit to safety. Pull, swipe, and tap gadgets such as tendrils, air geysers, and pulleys to complete clever puzzles. Set to a poignant orchestrated soundtrack from composer David Ari Leon, Contre Jour both delights and bedevils from start to finish.
Another one for fans of the unusual is LAD (4/5 stars, all ages, currently priced at 99 cents and currently comes bundled with a $1 Amazon MP3 Store credit).
This game is very much like the iPad app Limbo. You must guide a lost boy through various levels and puzzles in a mysterious, black and white atmosphere.
Stunning Graphics.
Atmospheric.
Puzzles.
Cryptic Story throughout.
Platform Adventure.
Thoughtful puzzles and striking aesthetics make LAD an atmospheric adventure you must experience.
Immerse yourself and unravel the cryptic story throughout LAD as you uncover the mystery within.
