A shooting star crashes on Earth, and a hideous blob emerges.
It creeps and leaps, it glides and slides. It’s also unstoppable:
weapons, fire, extreme temperatures… no matter what you throw at it,
it just regrows and continues its rampage. Its expansion is breathtaking;
it doubles in size every hour. But there’s one opportunity:
after each hour, it goes to sleep, forming itself into a flat triangle
and resting for a few minutes before it begins eating and growing again.
Your only chance to save the planet involves a satellite-mounted nano-fission ray that can cut through the blob.
When the blog is active it heals itself within seconds.
However, when you break the sleeping blob into two triangles, you make a critical discovery.
