  Bizarre concept, and fiendish gameplay will probably leave you frustrated

  I got given this by a friend, so I can't say that there was anything about this that motivated me to buy it. However, I can remember long hours sitting watching my dad play this when I was about 4, mostly because the lac... Read Full Review

  This game is a game of it's own. This was a creative game. Who would ever to think that a blob can be useful.

  Gameplay: This was indeed a strange, weird game. But I like it. It's like playing with clay the first time. It feels weird, cold, and wet. It takes time to get use to the stopping motion in this game. You want to stop bu... Read Full Review

  Action packed blob!

  By fenix1022 | Review Date: Apr 04, 2006 | NES

  Is it me, or is the title just a little too over adventurey? Maybe it is just me. This is one strange game. ABHB stars an unknown kid who has control over a strange white blob creature that morphs when you throw it ... Read Full Review

  What could be more touching than a boy and his blob? A girl and her geranium?...

  By Metron4 | Review Date: Sep 17, 2004 | NES

  A cute concept, the main problem with ‘A Boy and His Blob’ is the frustrating preciseness required. This game reveled in the game theory of ‘trial and error’. You could literally walk onto a new screen and die. Thankfull... Read Full Review
