Play Boy and His Blob in the Rescue of Princess Blobette, A Online
Toss jellybeans at your blob buddy to make it transform—sometimes into something useful, sometimes into a puddle. Figure out the right combo to climb, swing, and bounce through each weird little level.
I picked up A Boy and His Blob in the Rescue of Princess Blobette on the Game Boy back in 1991. It was developed by Imagineering, and it stood out among the platformers and puzzle games of the time because it wasn't about fighting enemies directly. Instead, it was this quiet, thoughtful adventure built around a strange friendship and a lot of jellybeans.
You control the boy, and your main goal is to rescue the blob's princess by navigating through a series of single-screen caverns on an alien world. The core mechanic involves feeding your blob companion different flavored jellybeans, which cause it to transform into useful tools, like a ladder or a trampoline, or sometimes just a useless puddle if you guess wrong. You explore each screen methodically, figuring out which transformation lets you progress, often needing to combine them in sequence. The pacing is slow and deliberate, more about solving environmental puzzles than quick reflexes, and some solutions can be pretty obscure. It feels like patiently working through a strange, cooperative logic problem with a friend who can't talk back.
