this is a block pushing puzzle game but also is like a cross between these \u201cSokoban\u201d style games and Puyo Puyo, the puzzle game where blobs stick to each other.\u00a0 In the game you play as a blob, and your job is to collect all the jewels in each stage.\u00a0 If you pass by another sleeping blob, it\u2019ll stick to you either vertically or horizontally, depending on how you passed it.\u00a0 Then you\u2019ll control two of them together, and so on.\u00a0 This can be handy, as you can then push two blocks at once or pass over pits you\u2019d normally fall into.\u00a0 But it also restricts your movement and you can\u2019t fit into narrow passages.\u00a0 So you must think about that as you play.\u00a0 Anyway, the game is available on all current consoles and PC, but reviewed on PS4 here.<\/p>\n<p>Controls are easy to learn as you can only move up, down, left, and right.\u00a0 When you are against certain blocks, you can push them, too.\u00a0 And that\u2019s pretty much it.\u00a0 Again, you must watch out for other blobs that can stick to you that can hinder your progress, and also watch out for enemies like other blobs that can eat one of yours!\u00a0 You can try to get a \u201cPerfect\u201d score on each level where you use a minimum number of moves, and there are also hidden secret bonus stages, too.\u00a0 My only big problem with this game is that it\u2019s REALLY HARD!\u00a0 But I do like the unique take on the Sokoban style of gameplay, and it looks like a game I would\u2019ve rented back in the NES days.<\/p>\n<p><a
