Indie studio Czarcade launches its self-published Clobbr on iOS

Indie game studio Czarcade is releasing a cute puzzle game called Clobbr on the iOS App Store today. It may not sound like a big deal, but we’ve followed its progress since the adorable title earned an award at game conference Casual Connect’s indie showcase last year.

In Clobbr, the player’s goal is to help a blue monster save his mouse friends from an annoying cat. It is actually quite clever and deceptively simple in appearance. Rows of blocks are arranged to guide a chain reaction from the top of the screen to the bottom. The objective is to bonk the cat on the head and let the mice escape. Clobbr is available on iTunes and Google Play.
