Don't be deceived by this name; Blobbo is a very close relative of Pac-Man. In the extremely limited area of mazegames available for the Memotech it stands up as an enjoyable, if not an outstanding, program.

Blobbo is a blue creature with a much sharper nose than his name suggests. His job is to rush around the maze eating the succulent fruit which appears. Bananas, cherries, apples - Blobbo loves them all.

But it's not so easy to satisfy his appetite. The maze is also inhabited by the Blobbo-eaters, monsters whose only desire is to consume our hero. They come in a variety of sickly colours, have twinkling eyes and are topped with far-out frizzy hair-dos.

As in Pac-Man, there are power-pills in the corners of the maze which enable Blobbo to eat the monsters for a few seconds. There are also deadly skulls and cross-bones.

The graphics in this game are pleasant without being amazing, but the sound is very good. The background tune alternates between fairground-style jauntiness and the rousing strains of what I think is Grieg.
