In an era when hormonally-charged militaristic action titles remains the style du jour, that such an unassuming, charming and quietly beautiful game like this can still find publisher backing is heartwarming.
It's a shame then, that given the highly unpredictable and fickle nature of the Wii userbase, gems like A Boy and His Blob will most likely go un-noticed, unsold, and unloved. Wii owners looking for a more cerebral alternative to that 'other' big platformer of the season need not hesitate: adopt a blob this Christmas. You won't regret it.
