Q8IS Mobile In has announced the release of Blob Dash for the iPhone/iPod Touch. The evil lord Lord Gaggletron has used his mind control crystals to control the innocent race of blobs called the Obo.

Players have to lead the blob through a series of obstacles and the blobs are not known for their intelligence. Players have to place blocks, bombs, traps and other gadgets in the blob’s path to get them to go in the correct direction. If the players can manage to get the blobs safely to the end of the level, they will be rewarded with a mind crystal. Players have to collect all of the mind crystals to free the blobs.

“This game is for all casual gamers – those who love cute things will love Blob Dash.  And even those that hate cute things will have lots of fun destroying the blobs by blowing them up or squishing them,” said Bob Quenneville, Vice President of Q8IS Mobile Inc. “We designed the game to be an entertaining mix of action and strategy, and it’s perfect for mobile gaming because you can play it in short spurts whenever you want.  It is also unique because it is one of the few 3D puzzle games available on the iPhone and iPod touch.”

Blob Dash sounds like an interesting puzzle game. It sounds like it may be along the lines of Lemmings, but it is hard to tell exactly from the description. Either way, if you like puzzle games, you should head over to the Apple App Store and check out Blob Dash.
