About this board game
GUBS: A Game of Wit and Luck is a 20-minute game for 2–6 players about building the largest, strongest Gub colony before three dreaded Letter Cards emerge and end the game.
Each player takes part in the secret struggle of the Gubs, guiding a fragile colony through a forest underbrush filled with danger. Victory depends on combining clever decisions with fortunate timing, because the Gubs can hardly stand on their own.
Threats may strike your growing colony from several directions. Giant Omen Beetles can consume delicate Gub Cities, while Flash Floods and deadly Wasps put your Gubs in further peril. Every challenge makes protecting and strengthening your colony essential.
- Spears to arm your Gubs
- Toad Riders to lead the charge
- Mushroom Barricades to help defend your colony
- Danger from Omen Beetles, Flash Floods, and Wasps
The game’s defining tension comes from the approaching end. You must develop your colony while watching for the three Letter Cards that signal the struggle’s conclusion, aiming to have the strongest position when they appear.
With its blend of wit and luck, GUBS: A Game of Wit and Luck challenges players to adapt as dangers threaten their Gubs and opportunities arise. Arm your colony, protect its cities, and lead your Gubs through the underbrush toward victory.
