Live out your fantasy as a xenomorph killing disgusting humans! The graphics are basic, the music is forgettable, it's made using basic Unity, but it's a fun game. Build out your gooey base full of pulsating nutrient sacks and send out the hordes when the humans get too close. Evolve to counter the humans' technology! I got a solid 10 hours out of this. There's challenges and a survival mode, too.
An absolute hidden gem. Its simple with some hidden depth if you go looking for it, enough to keep a long time RTS guy like me hooked. If your a fan of zerg, xenos, and other hive like races/ play styles this game really scratches that Hive overmind itch in a way that other games haven't.
100% Completion Review 8/10. Simplistic Yet Satisfying Alien "base builder" game. To my surprise this indie strategy game has been a charming title to playthrough (as the villain). The strategy (puzzle) aspects, thematic soundtrack, sound design, and the progression systems felt well thought out. The alien tech tree was enjoyable to theorycraft with just to see what builds I could get away with and what didn't work. High Recommend.
I don't want to get into too many details here as I intend to write a more in-depth review for Buggos 2. If you enjoyed Buggos 2 then you will enjoy Buggos and vice versa. Some sequels change everything about the game until it's barely recognisable from the original, such as was the case with the Frostpunk series. Buggos 2 has some differences and even a few improvements over the base game, but it still feels true to the original. The Buggos series of games is one of those very rare 'play as the monster/villain' games where you play as the titular buggos, a very comedic version of the classic sci-fi hivemind bug swarm, as you try to conquer a human colony. There are a few different bugs to choose from, and numerous upgrades to choose from, some that improve all buggos, others that improve only certain buggos. With every victory you always feel like you're progressing forward, until you hit the next major challenge such as a new enemy unit or building being introduced. The best gameplay is in the final missions when you feel like an absolute boss taking on the full might of humanity, which on the hardest difficulty is extremely challenging and unforgiving. I've just played Buggos 2, and I'm now going back to replay the original again, it's truly a great series and the Developer is an absolute pleasure to deal with. They're always keeping on top of any bugs 😏 or complaints, and remaining open to community feedback regarding improvements or new features, which is something that is always good to see.
