What The Dub?! is a multiplayer party game where each player overdubs missing dialogue from hilariously awful B-movies, outdated PSAs, and bizarre industrial films, with their own witty (or just plain stupid) dubs!

Reviews
- Highly entertaining and hilarious party game, especially fun with a creative group of friends who enjoy improvisational humor.
- Supports easy multiplayer via browser devices and only requires one copy of the game, making it accessible for groups; also features Steam Workshop support for adding custom and community-created clip packs.
- Text-to-speech and customizable sound effects add unique comedic value; the use of vintage and quirky video clips provides ample opportunities for funny dubs.
- The text-to-speech can feel robotic and unnatural, and some players miss being able to record their own voices over the clips.
- Limited to six active players (additional players are audience members), which some feel is restrictive for a party game; clip repetition and pacing issues can reduce replay value over time.
- Some technical issues reported including connection problems for remote players, occasional crashes, and occasional bugs with the web interface used for submitting responses.
humor
104 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe game's humor is widely praised for its hilarious, unpredictable, and user-generated nature, amplified by awkward clips, text-to-speech delivery, and sound effects. Success depends heavily on the players' wit and improvisation, making it especially funny with creative, absurd, or close-knit groups. While not automatically funny, it offers unique, memorable laughs that rival other party games like Jackbox.
“Since the humor itself is created by participants rather than being completely scripted by the developers, different groups can produce radically different experiences from identical footage.”
“Reading a funny response on a screen would work, but actually hearing a submitted line delivered alongside the original footage creates a much stronger punchline.”
“Awkward acting, overly dramatic expressions, dated clothing, unusual editing, and unintentionally funny situations give players plenty of material to exploit.”
“And the sequel seems to add an unfunny prewritten response to every prompt which adds nothing to the game and stands out like a sore thumb.”
“Like many others, I'd love a function that enables you to easily add your own clips, but also a function that lets you save the filled-in clips to your device because we often get hilarious results and would love to watch them back without having to set up an external recording.”
