"Solid"
It all starts from a grey city, drained of its hues, that a playful ball wakes with great splashes of paint. Watching colour burst across the façades to a jazzy soundtrack delivers an infectious visual joy. This graphic manifesto, clever and euphoric, leaves a lasting mark on the eye.

De Blob - Color Revolution (Wii) price, value & rarity
De Blob, a THQ and Blue Tongue platform-and-painting game where you bring color back to a hue-stripped city, praised for its fresh concept and upbeat soundtrack. Become harder to find boxed across all its regions, its collector interest rests on this originality and its publisher's demise rather than a great-classic status. An endearing piece for fans of original platforming on the console.
Is De Blob - Color Revolution still worth playing in 2026?
This Japanese edition of de Blob offers a platformer of delightful freshness and visual generosity, exclusive to the Wii's spirit. Playing Blob, an amorphous ball that absorbs colours to bring life back to a grey city oppressed by the INKT corporation, rests on an idea as simple as it is jubilant, where each paint splash makes the world more vibrant. The rolling movement and the motion controls serve this colourful, good-natured premise well. The anti-totalitarian concept and the cartoon charm appeal. For anyone seeking an original, joyful and soothing platformer, this too-overlooked title remains a delightful discovery.
