About

A Boy and His Blob makes its triumphant return! A reimagining of the NES classic, as the boy, you feed your blob jelly beans and watch him transform into cool and useful objects to solve puzzles and escape danger. With its robust and emotionally driven story, challenging puzzles, and visually impressive art style, A Boy and His Blob is sure to become a classic once again. When Blobolonia is threatened by an evil Emperor, the blob comes to Earth looking for help. Instead, he finds a young boy. Help the blob dethrone the evil Emperor that's terrorizing Blobolonia and establish a friendship with the blob that will last a lifetime. Experience the heartwarming story through an all-new, hand-drawn and animated presentation! Transform the blob into 15 useful items by feeding him jelly beans such as the all-new Caramel Cannon and Bubble Gum Bouncer and classic beans like the Licorice Ladder, Apple Jack and Tangerine Trampoline. Traverse woods, swamps, caves, the Blobolonian Outskirts and even the Emperor's Citadel through 40 breathtaking levels filled with hidden treasures!  Collect treasure to unlock 40 additional challenge levels that will put your skills to the ultimate test! Throwback Thursday Recommendation We share the earnest reasons that make a classic game so dear to us! Recommended by Frank Cifaldi from The Video Game History Foundation This is a lovely little lazy afternoon game, a low-stress puzzle platformer with relaxing music. And did I mention the gorgeous 2D animation, by the masters at Wayforward? It's so chill that there's even a dedicated hug button for hugging your little blob friend. Does the hug button actually do anything to affect the gameplay? I don't think so, but I think that's the point. Click here to discover the Throwback Thursday collection of games.
