Bloobles Game Review by Josh Komon
Game Rating =3/5
Many moons ago, fans of puzzle games were treated to a game called, “Lemmings.” Now, players can enjoy a similar experience with a new title, “Bloobles.” It is not the same exact game, but the similarities are unmistakable.

GAME PLAY
In the main form of play, gamers take on stage after stage, guiding little blue creatures known only as, “Bloobles,” over obstacles, away from certain death, and towards various goals. These little guys walk until something stops them or kills them. In the case of the former, they will turn around and start walking the other way. It is up to the player to give them further commands, such as, “jump,” “turn around,” and “stop,” so that they will not fall to their death, overcome obstacles, and reach any destination they need to reach.
The basic idea has been done before, and in games beyond the grand-daddy of the genre, “Lemmings.” However, it is still a fun and challenging game, with plenty of content to keep players occupied for hours on end. Some of the stages can be frustrating, as players need to play it perfectly in order to be successful.

GRAPHICS
All the pieces of the game are small, and therefore lack detail. All in all, when the pieces are put together, “Bloobles” looks decent.
AUDIO
The music of the game is boring and cliche, but, when different game speeds are applied, the music speeds up and slows down accordingly, which is a neat effect. The few sound effects involved are annoying at best, though the, “woohoo” the Bloobles give when they reach the goal can be rather cute.

CREATIVITY AND INNOVATION
The makers of Bloobles ultimately did nothing new. This is nothing more than a name change, and a few tweaks to an already successful formula.
OVERALL
Despite all its downsides, Bloobles is actually a fun game to play. For $4.95 players certainly get their money’s worth. A solid effort.
