Description:
Prepare to defy gravity in the most brilliantly bizarre way possible. Sticky Goo drops you into a series of masterfully designed test chambers as an adorable, amorphous blob with one incredible power: the ability to stick to almost anything. This is a physics-based puzzle platformer at its absolute finest, where every wall is a potential floor and every ceiling is a new pathway. You'll need to stretch, fling, and splat your way through treacherous levels filled with deadly hazards and ingenious contraptions. Every puzzle solved and every near-miss with a laser beam delivers a jolt of pure satisfaction. This is a true test of your brain, your reflexes, and your willingness to get a little messy.
The 'Voltaic Vats' Lab Expansion!
The lab has just expanded with a shocking new wing! The "Voltaic Vats" update is live, introducing a series of electrifying new levels that will put your sticky skills to the ultimate test. These new chambers are filled with dynamic new hazards, including walls that pulse with electricity, forcing you to time your movements perfectly. You'll also need to navigate sections with reverse polarity, where your goo is repelled from surfaces instead of sticking to them.
To help you survive this new challenge, a new 'Insulation' power-up can be found. Grab it to gain temporary immunity to electrical shocks, allowing you to pass through deadly barriers. The difficulty has been amped up—do you have the conductivity to succeed?

How to Get Sticky
Mastering your gooey form is intuitive, but the challenges ahead will demand true precision and creativity.
- Movement (PC): Use the W, A, S, D or Arrow Keys to move your goo blob.
- Jumping/Sticking (PC): Press the Spacebar or Up Arrow to jump. Hold the key while touching a surface to stick to it.
- Aiming a Leap (from a surface): While stuck, use the A/D or Left/Right keys to aim, then release the jump key to fling yourself.
- Objective: Navigate your blob of goo from the start of the level to the exit pipe, avoiding all the deadly traps along the way.
Your Gooey Questions, Answered
What kind of game is Sticky Goo?
Sticky Goo is a physics-based puzzle-platformer. The core gameplay is about using your character's unique movement abilities—in this case, sticking to surfaces—to solve environmental puzzles and navigate challenging levels. It's a genre that demands both quick reflexes and smart problem-solving. If you enjoy this style of challenge, you'll find many incredible adventure games that test your skills in similar ways.
What makes the puzzles so challenging?
The genius of the level design is that it forces you to think non-linearly. You have to constantly re-evaluate the level, seeing walls and ceilings not as barriers, but as opportunities. The puzzles often involve intricate timing, like flinging yourself between moving platforms or dropping past a laser grid at the perfect moment. It's a true test of your spatial reasoning.
Are there power-ups or different abilities?
Yes! While your primary ability is sticking, certain levels introduce special types of goo vats that grant you temporary new powers. You might absorb a 'Bouncy' goo that lets you ricochet off walls, or an 'Acidic' goo that lets you dissolve certain barriers. These abilities are always introduced in clever ways that add a fresh new layer to the puzzle-solving.
Is this a game for all ages?
Absolutely. The charming visuals and cute main character make it perfectly suitable for a younger audience. However, the puzzles are genuinely challenging and will provide a substantial mental workout for adult players and puzzle enthusiasts. Its clever design makes it one of the most uniquely fun games for any age group.
Do I need to download anything to play?
Not at all! Sticky Goo is built with HTML5, which means it runs directly in your modern web browser on your PC or mobile device. No downloads, no installations—just pure, instant, sticky fun.
I've escaped every test chamber. What's my next experiment?
