    Gomo isn't a great example of the genre by any means, but it's nice to look at and a fun little diversion. I found it rather endearing.

    At its core, Gomo is best suited for young adventurers who lack the experience to take on badder aliens and higher ransoms.

    While presenting several interesting ideas in terms of style, Gomo is not convincing because of an evanescent gameplay and definitely not brilliant selection of puzzles.

    Overall the challenge level is geared towards younger gamers; if you rush through the game you can complete Gomo in maybe just over an hour. The story is simple and the characters you meet have a simple charm to them and the pace of the game means you'll be able to whiz through it to see the next kooky scene.

    It’s short and easy without much variation, but there’s just enough charm and humour in Gomo to make it a worthwhile experience for fans of Machinarium clones.

    A point and click game with a quiet and a fun atmosphere, that lacks in depth of gameplay and puzzles. The game's longevity is way too short, offering less than 90 minutes of gameplay.

    Gomo is so easy and short that doesn't allow you to enjoy the adventure. Puzzle's design is simple and the storyline superficial. It's an adventure game that could have been better.

    If you get two hours of spare time, you can either spend it by playing Gomo from start to finish or go get your root canals done. I actually have to ponder which one to choose. Gomo is totally forgettable adventure game. [Feb 2014]

    There’s no place on the market for mediocre games that distinguish themselves only with visuals. Gomo will be quickly forgotten, even by indie enthusiasts. [03/2014, p.75]

    Sweet animation and charming character aside, Gomo is a lukewarm experience with an almost nonexistent duration and an irrelevant plot.

    It's a likeable adventure, albeit a very short and easy one that's sparse in animation. Parents might want to try it out with their kid(s), but then again, there's so many more involving, clever and not least prettier games like this, Machinarium for example.

    Gomo does have some real charm in its simple yet appealing visuals and its strange sense of humour, but it is seriously lacking in the gameplay department.

    Gomo is a short, stylistic adventure that has some interesting features, but ultimately its brevity and lack of challenge keep its charms from being lasting ones.

    Most of its pieces fit tight together, but lasting just one hour and being quite easy, it's not the best option for graphic adventures fans.

    Gomo can be a nice adventure game for kids, as it is really short and easy, but also quite funny.

    “Slovakian Machinarium” is an exemplary case of what makes the authors of Machinarium great – their creative flair and their subtle humor – and what Gomo lacks. [Issue#238]

    Gomo didn't turn out to be a very great game. It's really short, the puzzles are very easy, and the controls are a pain in the ass. It's definitely not the best option If you were looking for a point-and-click adventure.

    It’s cute, but it’s useless. Let’s just call it what it is.

    If given the choice between Gomo and another adventure game, choose the other one.

    Amateur lazy hour

    Gomo offers unimaginative minimalistic pictures, grating repetitive music, lame humour, unidentifiable objects, and above all a tedious interface that forces you to click ten times all around the screen to move the protagonist before you can interact with something. Looks like the classic “one click to move to and interact with” approach was too hard to code.

    Being cheap doesn't make Gomo worth the buy : Plenty of free, better Flash casual games on the Web.

    A short but cute, funny and enjoyable point and click adventure which is definitely fun to play for at least once.
    It's not hard as far as puzzles goes except a few ones that they need a little more attention. Artwork is simple but very pretty and kind of well detailed. I like things that happens in the background. Music and sound effects are also good and completely matched with the atmosphere of the game. All and all, it's a fun game and it worth the price tag specially if you buy in on sales!
