The Dream Stone - The Invisible Blob (DVD)

Get blobbing

Advantages: bright colourful characters
Disadvantages: annoying theme tune

This series originally derived from a set of pre-school books - each of whom featured a different colourful character printed by DC Thomson who of course are more famous for their characters from the Beano and Dandy. Based in Dundee, just 17 miles down the road from me - it's interesting to see some more of this companies more unusually and not so well heard of creations. I know many of you will not have heard of the Blobs and there isn't really much background information available so I'll try to be as thorough as I can. The characters are all Blobs of paint from Paintbox Land where they live.

Review of Arthur And The Invisibles (DVD)

De blob

Advantages: fun
Disadvantages: none

De Blob I wanted this game when I first seen it advertise and I got a nice surprise when my friend bought me it. ~ About the Game ~ This wii game is great for all ages , The aim of the game is to paint the town due to the inkies turning everything into black and white , you have to put colour back into the world , you collect paint pots and start painting the buildings. There are also challenges you have to complete so you can move on to the next level but you have a time limit so watch out! There are 3 colours of paint pots , Yellow , Blue and Red - you have to use these to mix colours. The wii control is used in different ways to make the blob move and jump around' ~ Graphics ~ I think that the graphics are not bad for a wii game it at all. ~ Disadvantages ~ you can't always find the gate at the end of the level in time and you have ...
