Ratings and reviews

A great idle game. It's not filled with ads. It also has some really nice bug designs. I love that the paid "boosts" are cheap and only 3. Loses a star because UI is very cramped and tiny, and making the UI larger cause a lot of bugs, pump intended. Finally, I feel I've "beat" the game already. I got all base upgrades and now it's just buying eggs, hatching them. Needs some more activities to do.

So refreshing to play a monster tamer/ breeder/battler on the phone, that's actually made with care and no pay wall. you are the absolute best! I made sure to buy your two packs just to support designers like you. thank you!

Update: this game rocks. Active dev, continually improving, the first game I think I've ever said needs *more* monetisation cause there's barely any.

What’s new

NEW: Mutations
Ascending can give an unmutated bug a mutation, strengthen an existing one, or rarely fuse a second into a new named variant.

NEW: Expeditions
Claim and Repeat on any expedition, plus Claim All, Repeat All and Auto-Send All.

Arena
Matchmaking fixes. 3v3 enforced both ways, and beating top ranks pays better.

Raids
Bosses stay hittable after cracking; boss HP scales weekly.

Misc.
Clearer grafting, safer exclusives, "Gen" is now "Lineage", plus UI fixes – full notes on Discord.
