About

Nubb is an inventive 1993 puzzle game for the Classic Macintosh by Benn Blincoe, published by Laughing Fish and Pointware. Macintosh Garden describes it as a title that superficially resembles Pipe Dream but owes more to Tetris in its actual play, and Info-Mac's own blurb pitches it as an interesting and original strategy board game with color support, distributed as freeware.GameplayMacintosh Garden frames Nubb as a falling-piece puzzle whose closest cousin is Tetris, with surface visuals reminiscent of Pipe Dream. The author cheekily suggests playing first and reading the docs later to figure the rules out for yourself.Release and platformThe game targets 68k Macintoshes running System 6.x through Mac OS 8.1. Color support is built in. Macintosh Garden lists a community rating of 4.5 out of 5.DistributionThe Info-Mac copy ships as nubb.hqx, a roughly 27 KB StuffIt 3.0 archive wrapped in BinHex. It was originally part of the June 1993 Home and School Mac collection.See alsoMacintosh Garden recommends Troubled Souls as a stylistic companion piece for players who enjoy Nubb.
