A Boy and His Blob Critic Reviews

It may be a little out of left field, but if you have love for puzzles, platformers, or excellent blob-based fantasy realms, you’ll almost certainly enjoy it. The Wii needs more games like this one.

With this update of A Boy and His Blob, WayForward have somehow been able to accurately capture the unique gameplay elements of the original title and wrap them up inside one of the most beautiful and polished Wii releases to date.

WayForward and Majesco have produced a top notch title that carries the spirit of the original game and brings in plenty of new material.

If you are a platform fan, retro nut, or if you want something that won't insult your child's intelligence, then you will be hard-pushed to find a title that exudes the same level of charm and finesse.

A Boy and His Blob looks and plays great, and at forty stages it doesn't wear out its welcome. The main game is just long enough to be satisfying, but there's enough bonus content that you'll be coming back to unlock extra stages and concept art. It's truly meant for all ages and is a must-own title for the Wii.

A Boy and His Blob is in the upper echelon of Wii titles in terms of quality and is a must buy for anyone looking for a fantastic gaming experience. An unforgettable experience.

Don’t pass this one by. Sitting at less than half the standard price of a 360 or PS3 game, A Boy and His Blob offers more entertainment and replay value than most Wii titles can attest to.

It's a magical adventure full of mesmerizing sights and compelling gameplay, held together by whimsical characters and a simple but surprisingly powerful story.

A Boy and His Blob is a slow burn that requires patience, so those looking for a bit more action should stay mindful of this. However, if you're hankering for a great 2D platformer with clever, inventive puzzles, you'll find plenty to love here.

Delightful, skillfully made, and full of wonder, is far and away the best puzzle action game in years. What it lacks in technical prowess it more than makes up for with fluid animation, ingenious gameplay, and outstanding level design.

It may be a little too simple for most gamers, especially those old enough to remember the original, but it never stops being fun.

An excellent and highly original puzzle-infused joyride of near-epic proportions.

Like a diamond-centered jelly bean it looks sweet but it's hardcore underneath.

Charming, clever and gorgeous, A Boy and His Blob is a great puzzle platformer. If only the Blob's AI was a little smarter and the boss battles a little less aggravating.

It's a first-rate puzzle platformer. And it's so charming that you won't be able to help but make frequent use of that hug button.

After careful analysis we can confirm the undisputed quality of the title product from Majesco. The combination of genres and the incredible ability to create artistic backgrounds recreate an atmosphere of familiarity that is now rare in recent titles.

An old classic comes back to life for nest-gen consoles and players. A Boy and His Blob offers great 2D graphics and an original gameplay – even for the present standards – but most of all it is a work of art of rare sensibility.

Another classic series is reborn on Wii with impressive results.

Despite these problems, there is something undeniably magnetic about the game.

This lovable platform puzzle game will charm you with its visuals and draw you in with its clever puzzles.
