Now, go catch real-life bugs, build your collection, and level up your skills. Bug & Seek features a very simple and peaceful gameplay loop, no stress, and no wrong choices. So relax and enjoy all those bugs (and learn about them too)! * Discover 200+ adorable and real insects * Customize and Expand Your Insectarium * Explore The World * Meet the Locals * Solve the Mystery What to Expect: * Simple Game Mechanics — Explore, shake objects to reveal hiding bugs, and swing your net. Bug & Seek was meant to be easy, peaceful, and stress-free. A leveling system increases the rarity of bugs you can catch, and some special items boost your chances too. * A Bug-Based Economy — To earn money, you will have to sell bugs at the stores and for jobs and quests. But don't worry, you will be able to catch more! * Cozy, Humorous Vibes — The cute little town of Buggburg to explore, lots of goofy and bug-obsessed NPC's, bugs with personalities and jokes, and a fun mystery about someone stealing a bunch of bugs. * Light Customization — There are a handful of adorable new decoration sets, and even a few new clothing items you can acquire. * Real Facts and Information — Every bug in the game is a real bug, and you'll learn things like why bugs are so important to biodiversity and environmental health. What Bug & Seek DOES NOT have: * Challenging gameplay; the gameplay loop in Bug & Seek is very simple. * Mini games; if you swing your net at a bug, you will catch it. * Energy meters or sleep requirements; after all, you can only catch certain bugs at night. * Multiplayer options; * Combat; while bugs in real life do attack and eat other bugs, they don't in Bug & Seek, and you won't fight NPC's with your bugs. The bugs also do not carry swords or wear medieval armor, as fun as that might sound. * Romance; while you can talk to NPC's, and do jobs for them involving catching bugs, you cannot romance them, nor can you romance the bugs, regardless of the superpowers that might give to your offspring.
