![]() ![]() The blob seemed to be the most powerful creature in the game… it handily defeated god, lion, tiger, devil, giant squid, leviathan, colossus, soldier, zombie, robot zombie, puma, bear, and everything.Įxcept vampire. I summoned a ‘blob’, basically a stereotypical green-gooey sentient blob. You can summon pirates, ninjas, god, lions, giant squids… just about everything, and usually they’ll attack each other.
