Interview notes[]

- Fled Snaxburg to keep his Snax safe from Wambus.
- Swears he sees Lizbert watching him late at night.
Personality[]
Gramble is interested in Bugsnax as companions rather than food, opting to raise them as pets and try and train them instead. He has successfully trained a Strabby, named Sprout, to follow a laser pointer. He is also interested in breeding Snax, but has not quite figured out how they reproduce.
He struggles with abandonment issues, telling the player that he joined the expedition in search of a new family, though he refuses to discuss specifics about what happened to his old one. Gramble gets worried easily and tends to jump to conclusions, and is often testy due to his insomnia. He also refuses to consciously eat Bugsnax, unable to understand how the other Grumpuses can do so. This causes serious tension between him and Wambus, who calls him a "weepy little rancher."
Gramble also appears to be romantically interested in Wiggle, although he struggles to understand her at times and isn't sure whether she actually likes him back, or just wants his Snax.

Design[]
Gramble is a short pink-furred Grumpus with a cyan, gumdrop-shaped nose and cyan eyes.
His mouth is in a neutral position with a pair of big round buck teeth on his upper jaw and two smaller round teeth on either side. On his bottom jaw he has three short, round teeth, with the center one sticking up slightly.
His most iconic feature is his hat, a red beanie modeled after a Strabby but this is not his defining accessory. His defining accessory[2] is his turquoise argyle sweater vest.
He has long arms, perfect for hugging, and when walking he holds them up to his body.

Trivia[]
- After interviewing Gramble he'll give the Journalist a Diary Key.
- He is a sleep walker and this makes way for an opportunity to feed him which he would otherwise not consent to. This comes with the achievement "Midnight Snak" trophy.
- He knits his own clothes, as well as the blanket on his bed.
- Once Gramble returns to Snaxburg, the player can donate Bugsnax to his barn instead of feeding them to other Grumpuses. Donating a certain amount of Snax will progressively expand the player's inventory space, and will reward the "In the Arms of the Gramble" trophy once it is maxed out.
- He named his Kweebles Charwee, Ashwee, and Joewee. Of the three, Charwee is his favorite, and is described as filling the void left when Gramble gave Sprout to the player.
- Other Bugsnax he owned were named Manny (presumably a Preying Picantis donated by the player, 'Manny' being short for 'Mantis'), Banatalie (presumably a Scoopy Banoopy donated by the player, since it's a banana split), and Steve (presumably an Orange Peelbug, as this is the only other Bugsnak present when he calls out these three names).
- Gramble's description of the Golden Kweeble may be a reference to shiny Pokémon, individual monsters with a different coloration than normal. Due to their extreme rarity shiny Pokémon are highly sought after.

References & Notes[]
- ↑ Eggabell claims that only therapists are supposed to diagnose mentally ill patients - this is not the case. Psychiatrists, the ones most likely to make such a diagnosis, are physicians. General practitioners (what Eggabell possibly falls under) are also technically qualified. In the US, psychotherapists are able to diagnose as part of their treatment plan, this does not count for other countries, such as France or the UK, where they would need the diagnosis of a physician. Therapists (so the general argument) are supposed to focus on the well-being and development of their patients individually, and a diagnosis is more important for prescribing medication.
