Grow as fast as you can! Multiplayer online game where you play as a blob that consumes literally everything in its way! Start the game being a tiny blob and eat the smaller ones to grow rapidly. It takes a lot to survive as you should avoid attacks of bigger blobs as they are eager to eat you as well. When your blob is big enough to pose a danger for other players, start hunting them! The game is quite immersive: you should constantly grow but don't forget to escape from your rivals, as all of them are real people. Every player can become significantly bigger or lose all the progress in a moment, be careful :). After every game session, you get experience points depending on the finite size of your blob and session time. With these points, you can get the level up and unlock some additional features (e.g. bigger initial mass or exclusive skins). The more actions you make during a game session, the more experience you get, so don't lapse into despondency, you will be rewarded for all your efforts! If you die at the very start, be patient, improve your skills and try again :) Game modes: - FFA - Teams - Experimental - InstantMerge - Crazy - Macro - SelfFeed - 2vs2 - Ultra - Battle Royale - Minions - Dual - Unofficial modes - Private/Custom Unique features: - video replays - customizations - separation by the regions - friends invitation system - animated and custom skins Our community: Discord: http://disc.blobgame.io/ Instagram: @blob.io_official Linktree: https://linktr.ee/blob_io Terms and conditions: https://blob-terms-and-conditions.blogspot.com/2018/12/blob-io-terms-and-conditions.html Privacy Policy: http://blob-devour.blogspot.com/2017/08/privacy-policy-this-policy-will-explain.html

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dot Eater at none against Blob io's 6. Dot Eater also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). Blob io's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 12 months) and ratings volume (15K vs 15). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Blob io holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blob io has 15K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Dot Eater's written reviews are positive against 71% of Blob io's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dot Eater ships an update every 12 months, Blob io every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on August 14, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
