About this game
Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack is a 2D puzzle platformer about an alien, mutant blob who manages to escape from a store where they are sold to humans.
Through six large worlds (College, Town, Moon, Badlands, Army Base and Metropolis), with multiple levels each, the blob needs to complete levels and optionally free captured blobs along the way.

The game has a bright visual style inspired by 50's art and corresponding music, and uses a lot of B-movie-inspired humor with many references to other indie games in the background environment.
The blob can move left and right and jump.
While in the air a dash can be performed to quickly move down, also to destroy objects below.
Levels are usually split up in smaller sections with multiple checkpoints, locked through a cork.
In order to pass, the blob needs to absorbs various objects along the way to grow to the required size.
Similar to the Katamari games certain items can only be absorbed when a certain size has been reached.
As a blob it is also able to squeeze through narrow passages.
Various gameplay elements are introduced gradually.
Through telekinesis certain objects such as platforms can be moved.
In sections with magnetism it is possible to stick to magnetic surfaces or repel from them by changing polarity, gaining boost.
There are also sections where the blob can be moved freely around the environment, boosting around in any direction with a more powerful boost to gain speed.
Next to the main levels various mini-game levels can be unlocked where courses need to be completed.
Depending on the objects sometimes multiple hits can be taken and health is recharged at the next checkpoint.
Various small blue orbs can be eaten to reach a high score, tracked on global leaderboards.
Blob friends are hidden in each level where they can be freed.
On PlayStation there is no Cross Buy, but owners of the Vita version can claim the PS3 version for free through Tales From Space: Mutant Blobs Attack - Delicious Vita Upgrade .
About Nintendo Switch
Released in 2017, the Nintendo Switch became one of the best-selling consoles of all time thanks to its hybrid handheld/docked design. Its cartridge-based physical format (as opposed to discs) has made complete-in-box collecting popular again, with certain limited print runs and Nintendo-published exclusives already commanding a premium on the secondhand market just a few years after release.
Gamevaro tracks Tales From Space: Mutant Blobs Attack for Nintendo Switch with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Tales From Space: Mutant Blobs Attack to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NSW release dates back to 2012.
