Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
World of God is the final location in Little King's Story, a realm which exists beyond The World.
After Corobo has beaten three Kings, Skinny Ray proposes his idea to go to beyond the universe to discover the cause of the earthquakes. Although he is initially rejected and ridiculed, the other Alpokians eventually side with his idea after a particularly big earthquake affects The World. King Corobo then gathers the remaining pieces of the Flying Machine to accomplish this plan.
Geography
After Corobo and his wife have flown beyond space in the completed Flying Machine, they arrive at the World of God. Howser, Skinny Ray, Kampbell and Pancho all communicate via a floating communications device. This mysterious realm has a wooden ground, and various pieces of junk lying around, not unlike New Island.

At the edge of the realm is a Box Theater, identical to the one seen in the opening cutscene. Compasses, pencils and books stop Corobo and his wife from leaving the general landing site of the Flying Machine. A pile of yellow mass can be examined, which Skinny Ray suggests several names for, all of which are derived from his own name: Skinnilium, Skinnilom, Skinnidon, and Skinnimonia. Behind the Box is a crack in the wall, the same crack which the rats disappear through in the opening.
Corobo can also read God's sketchbook, which describes several alternate versions of people Corobo has met, such as Howser and Duvroc. After some time here, Corobo's wife will notice movement, and a pencil will roll out of the way, creating a new way forward. Corobo then stumbles across several disembodied Onii dolls, and a replica of Jumbo Champloon's head from the second phase of his fight. Corobo's wife becomes curious of the mysterious sounds of movements, while Howser and Skinny Ray are cautious of a loud breathing noise.
While exploring the area, Corobo's wife is suddenly taken away by a shadowy creature. Corobo follows after her as books behind him are knocked over by something, trapping him. Corobo continues onwards, which initiates the Final Boss battle.
The Sketchbook
These are the entries to the Sketchbook.
Doodles of Adults My uncle is a drunk. My teacher thinks he is a pig. The guy next door thinks too much. And guy up the street thinks he's great 'cause he's tall!
Memories of Grandpa Last year, my grandpa died. Grandpa is now in heaven, where he became a knight.
Castle of my Dreams This is my dream castle. Bran Castle. I wish my castle was like this!
Little King's Story A long time ago, there was a lonely boy king. His name was Corobo, and he set off on a journey to defeat the 7 kings of the world to prove he was the best king of all.
Music
The music is this area is an arrangement of "Aria" from Bach's Goldberg Variations, using an echoey music box-like instrument for its melody.
Trivia
- This is the only location where Corobo's shoes make a different sound. They echo against the wooden floor instead of squeaking.
- Disregarding the final battle, this is also the only area where citizens cannot take damage, not even from falling off a ledge.
- God appears to be quite the avid reader, as He not only has many books scattered across the floor, but also two separate bookshelves. It is possible that this inspired the creation of His Little King's Story.
- Some of the books have titles written in Alpokian, confirming it as God's native language and not of His own devising.
- The words "Punch" are printed in Alpokian on some of the books. Though unconfirmed, it may be in reference to Punch magazine.
- An unused opening cutscene shows a door opposite to the window. Upon this door is a plaque written in Alpokian (although for an unknown reason is displayed backwards) which reads "Corobo".
- This also further evidences that this language was not created by God.
- There are two characters who are seemingly aware of what lies in the World of God. The first is Shizuka, who has mysterious visions of the creatures there. The second is, oddly, the Craftian, as translating their dialogue reveals that they have an intimate knowledge of the World of God.
- "Roach suntan oil. Olympics. Airplane camel. Airplane snail. Grasshopper snail. Bulldozer snail." (Demon war. Hate. King genius. King room. Child room. God room.)
- "Machine gun roach. Bulldozer Olympics." (Big Demon. God Hate.)
- "Caterpillar airplane. Roach dead." (Small king. Demon death.)
- "Mojo Priest!!!" (Demon Invader!!!)
- If the player were to modify the camera to be able to see the walls of the World of God, then a completed blueprint of the Flying Machine can be seen hanging above God's bed. Although this makes sense within the story, this detail is impossible to see in normal gameplay.
- There are several unused communications from the characters in Alpoko over the communications device, likely removed due to how short of an area the World of God is, which would make it difficult to fit every interaction.
- The World of God and a replica used for the Final Boss Battle are stored far away from the map, in the middle of the sea. Curiously, a Giga Elevator is floating not far from here as well, which several unused events warp Corobo to, suggesting the World of God may have had a lot of changes over the course of development.
- Incidentally, if the player were to use cheats and walk out into the sea from the Over-there-Beach at a certain angle, they will find the World of God. This is ironic, given that the Kingdom of the Dead is said to be located beyond the Beach.
