Walking Bugs
Read full descriptionHide full description
There's a bug in the maze. It's hungry. And it's going wherever it wants. Two players take turns rotating the sticks that make up the maze walls. Each side has an exit with food waiting. Whoever's exit the bug finds first — wins. The tricky part: the bug decides where to go on its own. You can't tell it which way to walk. All you can do is open the right paths and hope it notices. Each turn changes the maze a little. One rotation can open a clear road to your side — or accidentally give your opponent the win. Choose your bug Each bug has its own personality. Some charge through the maze without thinking twice. Some stop, look around, change their mind. Some take forever to get going, then suddenly run. Pick the one that feels right — or the one that drives your opponent crazy. Three maze sizes Start small or go big. Larger mazes mean more paths, more options, more chances for things to go sideways. Play vs a friend, vs AI, or just watch Two players on one phone or tablet. Or play against the computer. Or set both sides to AI and just watch the bug figure it out. Works offline. No accounts. No wifi needed. Works anywhere.
