A Boy and His Blob reviews and comments

What could be more beautiful than a game whose graphics, music and ambiance are worthy of one of the most beautiful watercolours? Both a small side of remembrance of childhood, sweetness and small challenges. I advise! Be careful however, some sequence of the game require some dexterity... ^^

The graphics are very pretty, it's really nice to the eye. This game can be directed to the public of all ages (even if the atmosphere is clearly childish). It is very simple to take control (even if the BLOB sometimes does not seem to follow correctly). The difficulty is not huge and the lifespan either, that is why it is preferable to take it in Promo:)

Actually quite good. Beautiful Graphics, great Idea. Rather slight Puzzles. It's fun, too. But it always takes a bit until the Blob is at the Dragee And has fed it. In The Beginning still nice to look at, but a little later patience is required. And it sounds somewhat inharmonious when the Boy calls the Blob. Since I only couldn't disable the Voice, I'm playing it now without Sound.

A magnificent discovery that this platform/reflection game, with a well-dosed difficulty, very simple at the beginning, becomes more complicated later without ever becoming too difficult but still enough to discourage children or players Casual. I do not see any defect, no technical problems, the pad 360 responds perfectly, the graphics are superb, the music very pretty and the lifespan very good for this kind of I, comptze at the bottom word about fifteen hours to finish it at 100%.

This lightweight, puzzle-prone platform game has a great and eye-catching environment. The character quickly becomes endearing and able to make hugs to his BLOB is really great. However, the game sometimes lacks clarity by its lack of tutorial that made me Rager several times, because I did not know all the features, especially those I needed in some cases. And despite some bugs, sui remain very rare, the game remains really fun and very easily accessible to all types of player

Game clearly intended for a young audience. But will he find him rider? Certainly. But beyond that, I think it will be necessary to be next to guide them. Because there is still a fairly good coordination to have, it will also be integrated that the landing does not give the same result according to the height of fall... And then if as I read, the bosses are very hard, it is to understand nothing... Few things will motivate adult players, with very rigid controls, a BLOB that one must constantly call to not that it crashes, the progression is laborious.
