Blobs is our own rendition of Peg Solitaire and HiQ - popular thinking games similar to Chinese Checkers. The object is simple ... as you jump Blobs over each other, the Blob that you jumped disappears. To complete a level and advance, just end up with only 1 Blob left on the board. Sounds simple enough, but there`s a catch. You can only jump a Blob directly over another that is within an adjacent position. Still sound easy? Give it a go!
