Space Quest V: The Next Mutation [PC] – Blob / Roger

Media: video game: “Space Quest V: The Next Mutation”
Developer: Sierra On-Line
Platform: Computer

Description: 

In the very last point of the game, Roger and company suck up the sentient primordial soup into their garbage scow, which by then had grown so large that it causes containment issues in the refuse compartment. Initiating a self-destruct sequence in order to destroy it, Roger attempts to teleport away, but needs to replace a fuse before doing so. On return, he finds the blob has broken out of the refuse compartment, into the ship proper. Though the blob attempts to grab Roger, he seems to be able to avoid being grabbed indefinitely, and escapes into the engineering department upon input by the player. If the player makes Roger walk back toward the bridge, he will then be absorbed by the blob.

Alternatively, if Roger voluntarily opens the refuse compartment himself, the blob will immediately absorb him.

Platform: Commodore Amiga, Computer

Description: 

In the first part of the game, in the Space Quest XII section, Roger will need to navigate a sewer section. Walking past certain grates will trigger a green slime to emerge.

Devil May Cry [NS, PC, PS2, PS3, PS4, XB360, XBO] – Nightmare / Dante

Media: video game: “Devil May Cry”
Developer: Capcom Production Studio 4
Platform: Computer, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One

Description: 

Nightmare is a slime boss first fought in Mission 16, Nightmare of Darkness. While in liquid form, it will try to trap Dante between two ‘jaws’ made of slime that form from under his feet, and should they catch him, they will drag him under the ground into Nightmare’s body. This acts as a mini level where Dante must fight several enemies and an easier version of an earlier boss fight. Once completed, Dante will break free from Nightmare’s body, causing it heavy damage.

Though Nightmare may try to use the same ability to attack Dante from under his feet, Dante cannot be absorbed a second time into the mini level, and this attack will just deal contact damage.

Developer: Vanillaware

When encountered, it is capable of grabbing a nearby player character and pulling them directly into their body to deal continuous damage, after which they forcefully eject them out again. When distant, they have a tendency to sink into the ground, and ambush player characters by reaching up from underneath them to do the same grapple attack.

He will occasionally jump in the air and come down on the player character (one of either two male or one female characters) and engulf them, trapping them inside his body in a ball-like structure. Mashing buttons will allow the player character to struggle and escape faster. Losing all health in this manner will still result in the player character being ejected.
