Super Rub 'a' Dub is a downloadable game on the PlayStation Store for the PlayStation 3 video game console. It was announced on February 8, 2007 at the D.I.C.E. Summit and was released in North America April 19, 2007. A demo is also available. In 2013, the game received an unexpected boost in popularity when YouTube user VideoGameDunkey created a parodic fake trailer for the game titled "Bubberducky" that would later amass more than 1,800,000 views.[1]
Gameplay
Super Rub 'a' Dub stars the yellow duck from technical demos known as Ducks demo for the PlayStation 3 originally used at E3 2005 and 2006. Using the motion-sensing functions of a SIXAXIS or DualShock 3 controller, the player tilts a bathtub filled with water to move a rubber duck around the tub. There are many pitfalls to avoid, such as jumping out of the tub and toy sharks which will try to eat the smaller ducks. Online leaderboards track users fastest times, and allow users to see the replays of those fastest times. The game has three levels: fun, tricky, and tough. Each of these levels has 20 tubs that one needs to beat to proceed to the next level.
In August 2008 the game received an update named 3.00. In the update, there are now 9 different ducks to unlock, monthly leaderboards and an online store.
