Grabbit
Guide your frog to eat as many bugs as you can before the time runs out — a fast paced action game of skill, accuracy and endurance.
Guide your frog to eat as many bugs as he can before the time runs out! Be warned though, the bugs will fight back!
Grabbit is a fast paced action game of skill, accuracy and endurance where you use your frog’s tongue to swat as many bugs as you can. With arcade style power-ups, hazards and 3 different styles of play you are sure to be wearing your fingers out.
Due to some store requirement changes that are not supported by the programming language used to make Grabbit, the game is no longer available for Android and iOS. We are hoping to release an updated version in the future with support for more devices.
Instructions
Use your tongue to catch as many bugs as you can - that’s pretty much it!

1. Press down on your Frog

2. Swipe to where you want to aim.

3. Your frog’s tongue will go to that position
Game Modes

Classic Mode
Catch as many bugs as you can before the timer runs out. Target the highlighted bugs in order to achieve a time extension and move on to the next level.

Frenzy
Control two frogs at once in a mad one minute dash to see how many bugs you can catch. There are no time extensions here so go as hard and as fast as you can

Head to Head
Grab a friend and go head to head in a classic two player split screen battle. Fight over the same bugs and use power-ups to slow down your opponent.
Meet the bugs
Here are some of the bugs you will encounter in your travels
Green Bug The most basic of bugs – easy to catch 10pts
Blue Bug A little bit faster but still easy to catch 15pts
Purple Bug A little bit faster and more random 20pts
Red Bug The fastest and most random of the basic bugs 25pts
Mosquito Small, fast and very random 50pts
Bee A little bit slow, but will sometime fight back 100pts
Firefly Slow moving but gives you a shock if you try to eat it when it is lit up 150pts
Yellow Bug Smaller than the normal bugs, they fly in single file across the screen 10pts each, or 1000pts if you catch them all. In Classic you also get a 10sec time bonus if you catch them all
Power-Ups
Here are the different power-ups you may see in the game:
Good Power-ups
These power-ups will give you a bit of an advantage
Invincible Protects you from most hazards and speeds up the speed of your tongue
Wide Tongue Makes your tongue twice as wide so it is easier to catch bugs
Twins Gives you a secondary frog to control
Slow Motion Slows down the the world so it is easier to catch the bugs
Bug Grow Makes all the bugs on your screen grow so that they are easier to catch
Random Gives you a random power-up from this list
Head to Head Good Power-ups
These power-ups will slow down your opponent (only available in head to head)
Splat
Covers up your opponent’s screen with an ink splat so that they cannot see properly
Lightning
Causes your opponent to get struck by lightning
Bug Shrink
Makes all the bugs on your opponent’s screen shrink so they are harder to catch
Tongue Tied
Ties a knot in your opponent’s frog so it is harder for them to catch bugs
Crate
Drops a crate on your opponent’s head
Anvil
Causes an Anvil to fall on your opponent’s head
Bad Power-ups
Avoid these if you can - they will slow you down.
Splat

Hazards
Anvil
Sometime a Bee will carry in an Anvil with the intention of dropping it on your head. If you are quick enough you can get the bug before he is over you and he will safely drop the anvil next to you.
Crate
Just like an Anvil, a Bee will sometimes carry in a crate. The only difference is that a crate will sometimes contain a power-up that is released when it breaks open.
Tips and Tricks
Here’s some tips for getting good scores
- Don’t stop - Try and keep a steady pace and don’t take too long to think about it
- Accuracy over speed - you can’t shoot again until your mouth is closed so don’t waste energy constantly swiping
- Go for Combos - the score you get for catching bugs in multiplied by the combo. Great Combos give you 10x the usual score, and Mega Combos give you 20x the normal score
- Keep a both hands free - the twin combo can be really powerful, but its hard to use with just one hand
- Go nuts with the Invincible power-up - especially when going up against Fire Flies.
- Grab the bugs carrying the Bad Power-ups - they are worth 100pts. Just avoid the power-up once it starts to fall
- Tap to recover - if you get stunned, start tapping on your frog to make him recover faster
- Have fun - its just a game after all
