From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

As if further proof was needed that a game doesn’t require fast-paced action or hi-tech graphics, A Boy and His Blob shows that simpler fare can be as satisfying as big blockbusters. This platform/puzzle game sees you, the boy, using his alien companion, the blob, to traverse the 2D levels. It’s done by feeding the blob, making it transform into objects such as ladders or parachutes, producing thoughtful gameplay that, together with the hand-drawn graphics, results in a charming title.
