Love the art style

That’s what first caught my attention. Little did I know it was the same studio behind Dogpile. Love your work. Great game, addicting but still very chill. Definitely recommend!

I love Gubbins *but*

When it stopped working across iOS platforms today, it gave me pause. There’s no clear way to contact app support, and during my search I realized that there haven’t been any app updates in about a year, which is no bueno given how many security vulnerabilities that can open your users up to.

Here’s to hoping there’s a fix and a major update soon (and that you don’t reset everyone’s streak since we’re all locked out today).

Wordplay staple!

Love this game- great design, funny and no ads! Did the free version for a while and then bought it, it’s a one time purchase and no subscription- I wanted to support the people that made this!

Freezing issue

I’ve played the game before but just redownloaded on a new phone, it’s a great game but my new phone is frozen on the Studio Folly screen. I hope there is some way I can play cause I was really wanting to do it again

A bit hard to grasp

There’s a lot going on in this game, and you’re only allowed to play once a day without spending money. I can feel that the developers have put a lot of time and care into developing something fresh and fun here but I can’t help but find the paywall frustrating. $8 is a pretty fair price for unlimited play, but it’s a fairly complicated game as you unlock more ‘gubbins’ and if you’re only playing one quick game in the morning you could easily get overwhelmed the next day trying to remember how things work or what your strategies are. I think it would benefit a lot from a free trial period for new players even if it’s just two or three days. I want to play more, and I would totally pay to play more if I understood the mechanics better, but as it stands right now I don’t even know if it’s something I would want to play more of since there’s so much thrown at you and not a lot of space to process anything.

LOVE IT

SUGGESTION THO: can we have a real infinite play where we get a row of letters every time they run out so we can keep going. and the game ends when we run out of room

or maybe a timed version? idk i dont like that one as much but truly i want a longer version of this game pretty please

is that too much to ask, hank

This is cool and exactly

You are the best

No tutorial

Couldn’t even learn how to play it during the free trial then it became paid and I never even successfully played it

Keeps crashing my phone

Love this game but it keeps crashing my phone! Especially when I’m listening to a podcast etc. really sucks!

Amazing!! Only flaw is the paywall.

Love love love this game! As an avid word-game player, I was thrilled to find a new one! However, you can only play once a day for free, and that simply is not enough to curb my linguistic cravings.

Bit disappointing

Very fun game and very cute as well, really great concept but you can only play once a day or else you have to pay. Honestly a bit disappointing.

Got it and ❤️🫂

Thanks yall

Pay

Another game you have to pay for to play, disappointing

Eh

It’s good I guess
Nice style
Wish it wasn’t only one game a day tho

Crash

Game keeps crashing when I try to play the classic. Paid for full version too

Great Design and Gameplay

This Game is so much fun to Play and has a beautiful Design with cool Animations. Definitely deserves the 5 stars 👍

Great design!

Obsessed with the art style, the fun vibes, the mechanics of gubbins🌷

Really fun game!

Probably one of the best mobile games I’ve ever played. It doesn’t shove any ads in your face, the style is cute, the concept is unique and it’s so enjoyable. My only thing is I wish there wasn’t any timers and that you could play as many games as you’d like in a day

So much fun!

My only qualm is a couple times now, I’ve had a game paused and when I go back to play it, I accidentally hit “end game” instead of the X in the top right to close the pause menu. So, I wish it took a few more steps or was more difficult to unintentionally end the game from the pause menu, maybe an “are you sure?” prompt or something before ending it. Other than that, it’s a lot of fun!

awesome concept mid execution

love this game and it would def be 5/5 stars if the postcarding UI was better. the postcard making part is so fun but truly so horrible to work with. at the very least it needs an undo button. would also appreciate a way to lock layers and a better way to select colors for words bc refreshing until u get back to the right color is so annoying especially when ur finger keeps missing the refresh icon bc u have to press such a specific place for it to actually work. all those icons/buttons (refresh, font choices, etc) need their activation radiuses or whatever to be bigger bc they are all so hard to use. and in a similar vein sometimes when you are trying to select a layer even if u press exactly where that thing/word is, it’ll latch on to some other object that is nowhere near and u just have to delete everything and start again to fix the layering. i love this game but the best part (postcards) becomes way too consuming and frustrating.
i also wouldn’t mind more free unlockable things/images. the amt of in app purchases is lowkey unhinged like i understand paying for the unlimited plays version but the rest of it is absurd. it would be more acceptable if there was also some sort of in-game point system where some things can be bought w points instead of only real money
