Skip-a-Head is a The Amazing World of Gumball game for mobile devices.
Story
The city of Elmore is so excited for the newest smartphone that they formed a gigantic line in front of the store. Unfortunately for them, Gumball also wants it but does not have the patience to wait, so he decides to cut the line in the fastest way possible: skipping on people's heads.
Gameplay
The game is an endless runner, played by tapping to make the character skip on somebody's head to get extra air. Using the sprint bar, the character can run on multiple people's heads in a row to rack up points, but the player must watch out for how much the bar has left. Throughout the game, the player can gather coins to unlock new minigames, power-ups, costumes or even other playable characters. The game is lost if the character falls onto the ground or hits an obstacle.

Goofs/Errors
- During gameplay, Penny is seen in her current look, however, when the Principal Brown minigame starts, Penny is seen in the bus with her old look.
- Sometimes, when you use Alan, he will disappear and the character will tilt from side to side for a few moments.
- Sometimes a line of people can appear suddenly on the sidewalk.
- On the iOS version of the game, there is a bug where the characters do not appear at all, making the game unplayable.
