0:55 Doubling back to "Ivy Towers" now, which promise "a new species of goo ball!" Oboyoboyoboy.

0:59 Neat ... unlike the constantly moving black goo balls, these green ones can be unstuck and replaced in new locations. Using the Sign Painter's advice, I do a spider-like climb up the tower. That'll have to do for now.

Would I play this game for more than an hour? Yes.

Why? Good physics, good puzzle design and quickly-ramping difficulty combine with lively visuals and music to create a thoroughly enjoyable game. My only complaint is my laptop's touchpad.

This column is based on a retail copy of the game purchased by the reviewer.
