    It can be easy to dismiss a game like De Blob 2, an average Wii exclusive that didn't really make waves in sales and branded as Syfy Kids. However, in doing so, you would be missing out on a game that is a joy to play.

    de Blob 2 is a great game that now has the chance to be experienced by a wider audience thanks to its multiplatform status. The casual platformer is much easier this time around, but it's still an enjoyable experience.

    If you like colors, you will like de Blob 2. Roll around and color your surroundings, so that all the gray fades away. If you're more the goth type of person, you will probably drown Blob in black ink.

    de Blob 2 is hardly going to set the world alight but it's a fun game that doesn't take itself at all seriously. It's simplistic, it's repetitive, it's primarily aimed at kids but, if you're looking for a silly, entertaining, easily digestible experience, you could a lot worse than spend a weekend with de Blob 2.

    A charismatic game with relaxing and enjoyable gameplay and a very likeable main character. It's however a bit too easy for expert gamers, which could lose gamers' interest in a couple of hours.

    An oddity with rare charm. [Issue#70, p.87]

    Gameplay concepts this imaginative deserve more thorough exploration than the handful of basic, regurgitated puzzles that populate de Blob 2. Instead, we're stuck with a mediocre platformer that's too easy for adults and too repetitive for most anyone, kids in particular.

    A pretty fun game considering how simple the premise is. To be honest I didn't expect anything above average for this game, but surprisingly IA pretty fun game considering how simple the premise is. To be honest I didn't expect anything above average for this game, but surprisingly I will say it's decent. It does get a little repetitive though and a little boring towards the end with some insane difficulty spikes that come out of nowhere. Overall: A fun little game that is worthy a go (at budget.)… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's just a charming and fairly straightforward platformer that wears its all-ages appeal on its kaleidoscopic sleeve. Everything is bubbly and bright and freewheeling and the gameplay is largely very good.… Expand

It's just everything else that sucks. So sad!! I was so hoping good for this game. The gameplay is just awful. The levels are repetitive, and there is really only one thing to do, which is paint, which gets really boring really quick. I kind of liked the first game, but I'm really disappointed that they don't do more with the game in number 2. None of the problems for number one go away. Why is the game on a timer? WHY? It doesn't make for me any sense? The saving system is also very bad. It made my kids upset, and they don't want to play anymore. They don't like the two players either. It's not fun for them. It is too hard for my kids, and too easy/boring for me. Such a shame! I can hope number three will fix this problems with the saving and such, but they don't make any effort in number two to fix it, I'm not waiting to find out.… Expand

    Un jeu qui a toute sa place sur les consoles Nintendaube passées et à venir (on verra sûrement un remaster trop frais sur la Switch) maisUn jeu qui a toute sa place sur les consoles Nintendaube passées et à venir (on verra sûrement un remaster trop frais sur la Switch) mais certainement pas sur les consoles adultes ! c'est en effet d'une rare stupidité et je crains qu'une telle stupidité ne ravage les **** cervelles en devenir de nos chères têtes blondes.

    A la stupidité se surajoutent la débilité et la répétitivité de ce petit étron coloré dont la gestion foireuse de la caméra donne le tournis (et la gerbe). Les graphismes en 256 couleurs sont particulièrement simplistes (pour ne pas dire demeurés), une raison de plus pour se cantonner aux consoles de chez Nintendaube. Voilà un "jeu" qui a sûrement été pondu le huitième jour.    … Expand
