A Boy and His Blob Gets an 11/4 Release Date for Nintendo Switch – Preorders Available Now
Blobolonia is in trouble, but it’s not too late to save it, as the beloved classic A Boy and His Blob is launching on Nintendo Switch on November 4, 2021, courtesy of Ziggurat Interactive. Experience the charm and challenge of the classic 2D puzzle-platformer on the go, and forge a friendship with a blob that will last a lifetime.
The game is now available for pre-order for $14.99 USD on the Nintendo eShop.
Originally developed by Wayforward Technologies in 2009 — and based on David Crane’s NES game of the same name — A Boy and His Blob takes place in Blobolonia, a far-off kingdom under siege by an evil tyrant. A brave “blob” has escaped to search for help, but has crash-landed on planet Earth. He finds what he’s looking for in the form of an adventurous young boy who’s ready to lend a hand and save Blobolonia. In the game, players will control both the boy and his blobby friend, as they explore beautiful hand-drawn 2D worlds, and face an array of puzzling challenges. Depending on the obstacle, players must feed a variety of jelly beans to the blob, turning them into useful shapes or objects to solve puzzles and defeat enemies.
Ziggurat Interactive has over 40 retro classic games in development, with new games releasing every month. Keep up to date on the latest news from Ziggurat on Facebook, Twitter, and the company’s official website.
