Bug Out
Read full descriptionHide full description
Eight players. One house. Three minutes. Four bugs, four catchers, one buzzer. The bugs have one job: stay free until time runs out. The catchers have one job: find every last one of them. Miss a single bug and the whole round is lost. HIDE LIKE IT MATTERS Squeeze into a cabinet. Drop into a barrel. Hold still in a bathtub. Twenty-eight rooms and every one of them has somewhere to disappear - but sit in the same spot too long and it starts to give you away. ONE BUTTON, ELEVEN POWERS Every bug gets one, and it is always the same tap. Burrow under the floor and come up across the room. Vanish mid-sprint. Flood a room with ink. Anchor a catcher in place and drag him off his feet. Swap places with a decoy and walk away. TEN CATCHERS, TEN WAYS TO GET CAUGHT Flamethrowers. Lasers. Poison gas. A club that cracks the floor open. A tongue. A net. One of them simply swallows you whole. Sweep a room with SCAN and watch the hiding spots light up one by one. TAKE THE HOUSE Rooms are worth BUZZ. Walk into one and it flips to your colour - unless a catcher is standing in it, and then you get nothing. Catching wins the round. BUZZ is what you take home. PLAY IT YOUR WAY - Solo against bots, one to four a side - Private lobbies with a code, for your friends only - Public 4v4 matchmaking - 20 bugs and catchers to unlock and 20 skins to wear - Daily missions, a weekly leaderboard, and four ranks to climb No blood, no gore - just eight of you in a house and a three-minute clock.
