A boy meets Blob, an alien from Blobolonia who has come to Earth seeking help. Together, they set out to aid Blob’s threatened home world and challenge the Emperor who rules it.
The boy feeds Blob flavored jelly beans to make it transform into useful objects, such as ladders, bridges, and trampolines. Use these forms to solve environmental puzzles, cross obstacles, avoid hazards, and explore without relying on direct combat.
The adventure spans 40 main levels across varied settings, with hidden treasures to find. Collecting treasure unlocks 40 additional challenge levels, and Blob can take 15 different forms.
Players who enjoy the game often highlight the unusual jelly-bean transformation mechanic, the puzzles built around Blob’s different forms, and the cute visual style. Some also value the boy and Blob’s affectionate interactions and the music. Other reviewers find the controls clunky or the puzzles unclear, and describe parts of the game as slow or frustrating.
