The BlobCats are after the DiceMice! In BlobCat it's your job to protect the DiceMice! Solve puzzles in single-player mode or play with your friends the action packed multiplayer mode!
- Unique and engaging puzzle gameplay inspired by classic ChuChu Rocket with strategic arrow placement to guide mice while avoiding cats.
- Charming and cute art style with well-designed characters, detailed environments, and an excellent, memorable soundtrack.
- Strong content value featuring over 100 levels, multiple themed worlds, and both local and online multiplayer modes for added replayability.
- Somewhat clunky interface and controls on PC due to its mobile/tablet port origins, making the gameplay feel less smooth.
- Multiplayer mode suffers from low player population online and limited maps, reducing access to competitive play for many users.
- Lack of Steam-specific features such as achievements and trading cards along with minor inconsistencies in menu design and level rating system.

The graphics are generally well-polished and feature a charming, "cutesy" art style that, while not groundbreaking, is visually appealing and distinct from common styles like Unity’s. The game performs well technically, including on tablet ports, with resolution options enhancing the experience. However, some areas, such as the "wild west" world, show a noticeable dip in graphic quality, and the overall visuals are functional but not particularly remarkable.
“The tablet port isn't badly done compared to most tablet ports, with some graphics and even resolution settings.”
“Graphics are well polished 'cutesy' blob graphics, which aren't great but they're not badly done.”
“It's a passion project of a studio of two developers achieving high quality gameplay combined with nice graphics and a fine-tuned soundtrack.”
“No 5 artstyles or this 'unity' artstyle which many games have.”
“Unfortunately, the graphics took quite a fall around the 'wild west' world.”
“A wide-eyed look shows an overall rough package, though — from functional-if-unremarkable visuals to a lack of CPU opponents in the multiplayer suite, all the way down to bizarre inconsistencies with how menus work.”
BlobCat
BlobCat strongly models itself after one of the best games to hit the Dreamcast and Game Boy Advance, and since there isn’t really anything else like it out there, anyone willing to squint their eyes might be able to scratch that ChuChu Rocket! itch a little here. A wide-eyed look shows an overall rough package, though — from functional-if-unremarkable visuals to a lack of CPU opponents in the multiplayer suite, all the way down to bizarre inconsistencies with how menus work. BlobCat is here for you if you need it, but doesn’t quite reach the level of the genuine article.
