Description
Gubbins is a friendly puzzle game where players place tiles to construct words, with the help and hindrance of wildcard modifiers called Gubbins.
Minimalist typography alongside kooky cartoons serve as a canvas for moreish wordplay. Dig through the draw pile and make words on the board with hilarious friends wreaking havoc.
What’s New
Version 1.1.1
Hello Gubheads! Today we have an important patch that includes critical fixes and small QoL features. Thank you kindly for your bug reports and postcards!
Fixed an issue with the Black Hole which would cause other Gubbins to break (UFO, Chili, Meteor)
Fixed an issue with the Meteor Gubbin, and its ability to track jumbled tiles
Meteors will now try to avoid landing near each other, as to not break the game (and our minds)
Fixed issue with Sock Gubbin trying to destroy itself
Sped up Mushroom Gubbin spotlight animation
Pencils will now prioritise creating 'common' words
Fixed missing 'Saved to Photos' popup in postcard menu
Added Streak sticker for postcard making
Added a new additional option for turning off streak tracker on main menu (nested in Accessibility & More in the Settings)
Bundles and purchased items should more accurately update in the Kiosk based on what you have purchased.
Fixed issues with using undo after some Gubbins (Black Hole, Meteor)
Added the pause button during Gubbin selection to allow exiting the game.
Known Issues
We are aware of a rare bug that causes Gubbin selection to break. We are investigating this issue.
Playing a UFO, Chili or Meteor on the same turn as a Black Hole expires can cause some tiles to appear in the wrong place temporarily. This is only a visual issue, and only while the tiles update to the Black Hole's rotation.
Ratings and Reviews
Delightful!!
If you like daily word games you’ll love this! Unique yet familiar mechanics, the art is full of life and character, everything about it is delightful. And best of all! No ads!! I can definitely see myself paying for the “full game” further down the line.
I love Gubbing and I will Gub on in future.
I wanted to love it
It’s a great concept but there a few main flaws. The first is that at no point does it tell you how it scores the game which makes it hard to be strategic or improve. The other is that the “turn” button is really hard to use while getting the tile in the right place. It says in the tutorial you can press down or something but I can’t figure that out either. It’s going to be a great game but it needs some TLC.
Completely broken
I’m on an ancient iPhone and I paid the $20 and the app is completely stuffed.
I’ve killed it twice and restarted the phone, there are no general iPhone updates available, but the ‘select gubbin’ button doesn’t do anything so that means I can’t get to the actual game, I’m stuck on the selection screen, and also every time I finish a game I have to kill the app to get to the next screen.
This app is popular and very expensive for a phone game. It should work on any device. Please please make it so that it does.
