What's a Blob?
|
Blobs are soft rubber like
disks about 2 inches (50mm) in diameter and 3/8 inch (10mm)
thick.
You can train them to
- stop dead when you throw them
- roll long distances - straight or around
corners
- bounce off walls, doors, and windows
to get to the target quicker.
|
What's the Target?
|
The target is a thin circular
disc which gets moved around during the game. It's thin
and flexible, with a non slip backing.
Players take turns in placing the target
in different places during the game. It could end up on
the floor, under a table, on top of a wardrobe, in the
shower, or up a tree.
|
Is LOBABLOB easy to play?
|
Yes. Kids pick up the idea
instantly - adults take a bit longer.
LOBABLOB can be played on several "levels".
Young children can just throw the blobs around together
with older people who are playing a strategic, competitive
game that is filled with excitement.
|
How long does a game take?
|
About half an hour with 4 players.
If a team of 8 are playing, it will take longer.
You can start and stop the game whenever
you like. This makes it great to play when travelling.
Take a rest stop every couple of hours, and play a stage
or two of LOBABLOB.
|
Is it Safe?
|
Yes. Blobs are made from a
rubberlike material which will not mark or damage walls,
paint, windows, or other surfaces.
We have been playing inside for a couple of years and nothing
has ever been damaged.
The game meets Australian Standard 1647
for toys. Blobs are made from materials that are approved
for food contact by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
|
Is LOBABLOB portable?
|
Very. The tough nylon case
is a similar size to a CD case, but a bit thicker.
Keep it in the glove box of the car so
it is always ready for use when you travel - or just put
it into your pocket for instant fun anywhere.
