In the world of mobile gaming, simplicity can be a breath of fresh air, and that's exactly what you get with Blob Attack: Tower Defense. Crafted by the solo developer Stanislav Buchkov, this game is now available on the iOS App Store. It's a straightforward tower defense game where you face off against waves of slimes, performing all the classic actions of the genre: building towers, gathering energy, and unlocking more powerful weapons to fend off your enemies.
The game's adversaries are the increasingly popular globs of slime, familiar to fans of the Dragon Quest series and a staple in fantasy gaming. While Blob Attack: Tower Defense offers a simple and engaging gameplay experience, there's a notable aspect that might affect your decision to dive in.
A bit of an art issue
What stands out—and not in a good way—about Blob Attack is the use of AI-generated art. This choice is evident on the store page and likely within the game itself. While the simplicity of the game shouldn't equate to poor quality, the presence of AI art can be off-putting and might deter players from giving it the chance it otherwise deserves.
Looking at other works by the developer on the App Store, such as the pixelated RPG Dungeon Craft, a similar use of AI-generated art is noticeable. It's unfortunate because these games could have been well-received if not for this particular artistic choice.
