How to play Free the Blobs on Mac
Game summary
Free The Blobs is an arcade puzzle game with a novel control mechanic.
You take control of the blobs, a new life form created within the evil lair of the robot overlords. You must help them escape by guiding them to the exit of each level. The main feature of the game is that all the blobs move together – their movement is synchronised. This simple concept presents some interesting problems for the player. Throw in a range of tile types, hazardous puzzles and robotic entities intent on your destruction and you have the ingredients for a challenging and novel puzzle game.

Play Free the Blobs on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Free the Blobs on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
