Episode 12 – Blob Hard: Dungeon Crawling Like It’s 1985In this episode of The Proving Grounds, we go tile-by-tile into the world of blobbers — those classic grid-based dungeon crawlers where your whole party moves as one. We trace their rise from Wizardry and Might and Magic, their quiet decline in the 1990s, and their surprising revival with Japanese titles like Mary Skelter and Labyrinth of Galleria.We also take a detour into traditional roguelikes to spotlight Lost in Prayer — a fascinating new title where every enemy that kills you becomes playable in your next run. Blending Heaven-and-Hell themes, unique skill trees, and creative death mechanics, it’s one to watch if you enjoy high-stakes, tile-based exploration.
