Who it's for

This game is for casual players looking for a simple, addictive time-killer, especially those who enjoy runner games and don't mind frequent interruptions for ads R1R6R17. It is NOT for children due to inappropriate notifications and ads R21R25, or for users concerned about data privacy R42R88. It's also not for those who get easily frustrated by technical glitches and crashes R4R9.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew heavily negative, with a significant focus on technical issues and ads, which contradicts the developer's recent update notes claiming 'smoother gameplay'. While some positive reviews exist, they are often brief and less detailed than the negative feedback.

  5. [R41] 4/5 · GB Great game to reduce anxiety, but has a glitch regarding a certain advertisement: I love this game so much and it’s really relaxing, something good to do in your spare time to help/distract from anxiety. However, recently I’ve found that, at a random point in the middle of playing a level, an audio of an ad will start playing, and won’t stop (even after the level when you have to watch and ad, cro
  6. [R13] 5/5 · GB Blob the runner is sick!: I love blob the runner I got all the hats and skins I was wondering if u could add more other than that the game is 1000000% fantastic!
  7. [R39] 4/5 · GB All in all it’s just another game in the store..: My point is that this game is GREAT. You can get bigger, collect AWESOME skins and a bunch of other stuff. Problem is, some of the obstacles are IMPOSSIBLE TO GET PAST! I think you should add like maybe a sliding or jumping control maybe?? Look I get it blobs can’t jump but it’s a video game so who cares. Also why do you have to watch ads for the s
  8. [R52] 2/5 · GB Ok 😑😥: There is too many glitches and too many adds. Do NOT get this game. It is a waste of time😡😧. It is also very boring😴😵. But I like the hats and levels😀😎😉. But overall, you should not get this game/app.🤯🤬😤
  9. [R55] 5/5 · GB This game is fun but...: I love playing this game but the more I play, I have realised that levels become repetitive and that although I have collected all the hats, there is still one locked and I can’t seem to get it and it really s annoys me. But overall, it’s a fun app.
  10. [R2] 3/5 · GB PLEASE FIX: so when I press the app it just kicks me off so can you PLEASE try and see if it will let me on but I played this game on my friends mums phone and I LOVED it but for some reason it won’t work on my phone please try and fix this thank you.
  11. [R4] 1/5 · GB Horrid game: Loads of technical issues can’t get on game waste of time
  12. [R9] 1/5 · GB Doesn’t start: Gets as far as the balancing elephant screen, then crashes.
  13. [R18] 1/5 · GB Please help me: Hi I haven’t actually played it once yet because when I click on the so to play.It only loads up to the drawing of an elephant then takes me back to my home screen and I really want to play it so can someone help me please
  14. [R16] 1/5 · GB Good for watching adverts: Since you spend most of your time watching adverts rather than playing, the game play is somewhat irrelevant. Good for wasting 10 minutes.
  15. [R19] 1/5 · GB Ad-ictive: Sorry for the pun. This games is fun to play but every 4 seconds u get an ad
  16. [R24] 2/5 · GB Data farming and many adverts: Very addictive game but levels are super short and there is more advert time than actual game play and it’s multiple adverts after every level so unfortunately I got a bit fed up and no longer play it but if these issues were sorted out then I would most likely return to play - you have to give permissions for data collection and sharing including IP address etc so I
  17. [R34] 1/5 · GB This ruins the game!!!!: This game was fun at first but a bit laggy then it lathered the adverts on you and I need up watching 5 adverts in 3 minutes!!!
  18. [R21] 1/5 · GB Disappointed: This is suppose to be a kids game but the notifications don’t look kid friendly To be exact the notification say “how BIG can you get?🍆💦” This needs to be reported and age restricted to 18+
  19. [R25] 1/5 · GB Inappropriate notification: This popped up on my phone. How big can you get 😱 You need to make him bigger 🍆 💦 So inappropriate my child is playing this on my phone. So inappropriate. My child is 10 years old
  20. [R26] 3/5 · GB Good but not for kids: It’s good and all but if you press allow notifications and if you don’t play it for a not along time it says make him bigger come one the game and make him bigger with a egg plant and some drops and I think we all know what that means anyway do not recommend for 4+ but I recommend for 12+ over all it’s ok
  21. [R27] 4/5 · GB Good game but…: When I got a notification it said “can you make it even bigger?🍆💦” which is inappropriate. It’s a fun game but remember it is a kids game.
  22. [R33] 2/5 · GB Scam: Tries to download personal data and wouldn’t let me play until I pressed agree lots of bugs too. Good idea for a game but was made by selfish brats who just want to make money and don’t care about the actual quality of the game
  23. [R42] 2/5 · GB Just a data grab avoid: Game it’s self isn’t bad... But you can’t play unless you hand over all personal and non personal data. This company then feeds that over to google and Facebook as well as other 8-9 companies. Along side that it’s littered with continuous advertising. Stay away
  24. [R88] 1/5 · GB Forced personal information collection??: The game won't start unless I agree to allow collection and sharing of my personal data and information... unistalled immediately.
  25. [R8] 1/5 · GB AWFUL: Bruh like it lags all day and frisking is a damn clickbate DO NOT GET ⚠️
  26. [R15] 3/5 · GB Its ok but laggy: The game lags to much
  27. [R53] 3/5 · GB Lag and lag: It not that good because lag I cannot even do the first level 😭 💙💙💙 I just want it to be less lag 😍👎 and it looks fun to
  28. [R58] 3/5 · GB 4 Star review: It's a bit glitchy but that's probably my fault but apart from that it's quite good 😎 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ★
  29. [R74] 3/5 · GB Mediocre: It is a good game hut i have got all the skins and hats and there is jo longer a goal for me.
  30. [R96] 1/5 · GB Brain numbing: It’s an okay game, but packed with adverts, like most mobile games... the lack of any thing interesting in the game is surprising, if you like running in a straight line and sliding your thing left and right, then this is your game! But sadly I feel it lacks any good content, no power ups, the shop is extremely basic using a random loot system, to sum it all up don’t waste anytime o
  31. [R100] 5/5 · GB Addictive: I love this game it is so addictive, a little request please more obstacles and a mini problem it keeps on putting me on the same level but over all I love the game. I really recommend this game to you.
  32. [R35] 5/5 · GB Great game, a few bugs: Before today, this app worked perfectky, niw there has been a bug where you kbiw when it says: skin unlocked watch to claim, it says watch to claim, but doesnt show the picture of what I could gain, and after watching the ad, I gained nothing, please fix this, I am not running on an old version of the game its just buggy and I really love this app so please fix this, I woul
  33. [R57] 4/5 · GB Good game.: I’ll be honest: I kinda hate Zynga. They use really spammy and manipulative ad tactics, the stereotypical mobile game ad. However, I have to be fair: This game is great. While their advertising practices are questionable, I’ve never seen any bad advertising for this one. The game is fun for a time-passer, and the only issue is that the vacuum VFX is visible through the character someti
  34. [R75] 4/5 · GB One request: Thank you for your lovely game. I have collected all the slimes and it still comes up with the button saying claim to the slime I already have
  35. [R70] 3/5 · GB Not too bad: It’s fun and all but it’s very glitchy. I’ve had so many problems with going through the score multipliers at the end of the level. The unavoidable objects are really bad as well. (Demonstration, when you start a level, there’s usually an unavoidable object that practically cuts you in half, and sometimes half way through there’s an unavoidable object that cuts you in half. Most of t
  36. [R102] 4/5 · CA It’s a cool game: One problem though is that I was just finishing up one of the stages I nearly made it to the 10x multiplier but as I got to it I phased through it and ran out of blob and I know I didn’t miss it as I was in the middle of it!
  37. [R106] 1/5 · CA Ad: To many ads and what’s the point of making the blob bigger if there’s obstacles that are impossible to get past
  38. [R7] 5/5 · GB The best app ever: I’ve only just started and it’s 👍🏻
