Read the room. Order your shots. Survive. BLOBS is a physics puzzle-shooter with a twist: every blob on the board wants something different, and the balls you fire bounce, chain, and ricochet exactly the way you aim them. Line up the perfect angle, unleash your volley, and watch a single well-placed shot cascade into a massive combo. Aim by dragging, release to fire, and let physics do the rest. The catch? The blobs keep descending. Read what's coming, pick the right ball for the job, and hold the line as the waves get faster and stranger. HOW IT PLAYS - Drag to aim, release to fire a stream of bouncing balls - Position and angle are everything — every hit counts - Chain kills across the board for escalating combos and huge scores - Collect and bank special balls, then fire them for free MEET THE BLOBS - Motes, Shields, Sticky goo, Embers, Armored tanks, and Swarms - Splitters that pop in two, Bubbles that teleport, Volatiles that chain-explode - Void black holes that swallow your shots — shoot around them - Boss blobs: The Warden, The Wall, and The Mender NINE SPECIAL BALLS Fire, Bomb, Water, Lightning, Piercing, Heavy, Sniper, and Frost — each one counters something. Freeze a wave in place, burn a cluster over two turns, drill a line with a railgun, or drop a bomb on a pack. Learn every matchup in the in-game Codex. Endless waves. Real bounce-chain physics. Just one more run. No account, no timers — pick up and play.
