    Game 336: Hob Hob is a neat game. You explore and find your way through a relatively open-ended map, while solving a bunch of environmental puzzles and engaging in a little bit of combat. It's a simple game, but also a very fun, chill and charming experience.

    You could genuinely make an immersive sim style game out of HoB, this movie operates just as much on video game logic as it does slapstick

    Buddy just getting under Okada's skin by using his own game against him. Perfection. I was a huge fan of HoB, but Hounds of Hell is already clearing it. #AEW 🤼

    So I kinda finished Hob, the sixth game of the year, and it is time to play my favorite PS1 game. I hope my whims are in the mood for this. They ought to be. 🤞

    “Death is a mug’s game!” In the fourteenth century Hob Gadling boasted he had too much to live for and wasn’t going to die. It’s the twenty-first century and even though there have been some changes, she still has too much to live for.

    The design on the left is Hob, a wizard-hobo-conman, one of the characters in my new #dnd home game that is based on the Oregon Trail emigration. He was last seen filling skeins of clean drinking water to sell as “holy water” to unsuspecting rubes along the trail.

    I'm happy to say that I am addicted to both Hob and Drova - Forsaken Kin. 🤓 Here's a Short of Hob—please excuse the lack of definition. It's an easy game (even in Very Hard Difficulty) and focuses more on exploration than on combat but it has a very relaxing vibe to it. youtube.com/shorts/BADw2...

    🕹️ This was the game from last night and since today has downloaded the last patch for Drova - Forsaken Kin, then I will play Hob soon after I finish Drova or after I finish Final Fantasy IX. But this game just felt so right for me. I need to play it soon. 😁 If you do try it, I hope you enjoy it. 🎮

    Almost done with Hob (two collectibles and the final bossfight left). At its best it's a decent adventure game that visually plays to Runic Games' biggest strengths, but I can also see why it didn't rock the world.

    I knew UHH was made for me as I read the words “The Boondoggle Hob” in the original partly-redacted Patreon draft and the game has only gotten richer and wilder with age. All the magic of fairy and performance in one lyrical, poetic, welcoming package. So good I made a 22-ep actual play about it!

    It's #ThrowbackThursday and we've got an updated version of an old monster: The Hob. The old version was made when the game was in its infancy and in a different style. The new one is next to Adanna & Ruby's sprites for comparison. What do you think? #game #pixelart #RPG 発 #ドット絵

    I have a huge soft spot for Torchlight 1, and some of its magic definitely carried over to Hob - Runic loved environmental details and knew how to create a convincing illusion of scale. Shame the game is kinda janky on gameplay/technical level and feels like it abruptly ends a few hours too early.

    Yes, this! Eternal strands is *huge* fun, and draws on a lot of good action/adventure game touchstones (darksiders, god of war, the sadly neglected Hob) without being totally derivative. *70% off* at the moment; do give it a try if the trailer at all strikes your fancy.

    Morrisons Oat Nobblies were a game changer for me. It's their superior alternative to a Hob-Nob. So superior, in fact, that I can't really have them in the house any more.

    Some of it is definitely due to Runic closing within a month of releasing Hob - aside from several key devs departing, something was definitely not ticking financially, and the game is missing some polish that could've been patched in post-release. Shame.

  • SYX @syx98.bsky.socialBluesky · Apr 5, 2026

    Hob (2017) feels like a video game that was aiming to win at the Oscars with how engrossing and artistically potent it is. It reads like a bespoke indie game but its made by salted veteran game devs. I cant even say if its good or bad because I get stuck being enraptured by the atmosphere/animations

    This game severely lacks villains in the roster. You have a plethora of villains to pick from. Sentinel, Magneto, Hob Goblin, Rhino, Juggernaut, Carnage, Venom, Red Skull, etc etc Where are they?

    I'm loving the Briscoe vs HoB stuff but I do have to wonder what the end game for this is since it's 3v1, and while Mark is holding his own using surprise tactics, the numbers game would catch up to him quickly in a match #AEW

    I just realized what this reminded me of to some extent. The game Home Safety Hotline. But not the normal gameplay. It reminds me of when one of the YouTubers I watched ended up deep diving it off screen to complete the game and he was like, "Oh, that, yep, Hob. Do this." Without looking up info.
