Command toy soldiers as a general to defend a house from bug invasions in this action-strategy indie game. Switch instantly to first-person view on any unit for a damage boost during combat. The campaign alternates turn-based Home Mode for managing headquarters, recruiting troops, buying ammo, spying, and unlocking units with real-time Battle Mode fights.
Bugs gather food to spawn swarms and upgrade their nest, while you deploy infantry, vehicles, artillery, and aircraft, plus build defenses and traps to protect outposts and supplies. Progress through a technology tree with battlefield experience, and stockpile ammo types like high explosive, incendiary, cluster, and toxic bombs for varied shots. Players who enjoy switching between strategic planning and intense first-person battles will crush every creepy crawler room by room.
Do you hate bugs and arachnids? Seeing them creeps you out? Would you like them to disappear off the face of the Earth? GOOD! This the right game for you!

- the Battle Mode, playable in real time, where you’ll fight face to face with the enemy till the last soldier falls.
The Bugs will aim to collect as much food as possible, they will use it to create new lethal Swarms and to evolve their Nest. On the other side, you’ll have to prevent that and get the right resources to create an army able to fight off those creatures.
