Gluey is a colorful, blobby puzzler - Time Waster

Gluey is not your typical puzzle game. Sure, you have pieces you need to match, but the pieces shift, wobble and stick together. The objective is to match up brightly-colored blobs so you can clear them out. Bigger blobs equal more points, and you can't remove a small "single" blob. The trick is remove the right pieces so the others can fall into place and combine.

Gluey is an all-ages kind of game: there's not a lot of manual dexterity or speed required, although you occasionally have to tap a couple of blobs that have wobbled into one another temporarily. The challenge increases in later levels with new kinds of pieces (like locks, that block your blobs from falling properly) and weirdly-shaped playing fields. While there are plenty of things I like about Gluey, I recommend turning off the soundtrack. It's obviously a matter of taste, but I found the soundtrack a little annoying.
