Steam review snapshots
Bug catching, helping village folks with lil quests, a little town improvement, solving a mystery, and even donating bugs to the local…While the simplistic style, slightly repetitive gameplay loop, and somewhat buggy quests may turn away gamers looking for a more substantial game…I feel like it's a given that it would be a little grindy/repetitive.If you’re looking for a slow, comforting adventure with low stakes, heartfelt pixel art, and a surprisingly engaging catalog of insects, Bug…Why it fits
Check it if you want casual, simulation filtered by single-player.
