X-Bugs is a unique new game, combining luck, skill, and strategy. Your armies are microscopic mutated monsters. The battlefield is any tabletop.

Each bug is represented by a plastic chip. Flip the chips to attack . . . practice helps! Each type of bug has a special power to attack or defend . . . each army has a different winning strategy! It's quick to play . . . eat the enemy bugs, destroy his bases, and win!

Originating from Italy, this game has Steve Jackson's personal recommendation. "This is too much fun. It's a great design. The die-rolling gives randomness, the flipping requires skill, and there's a lot of room for strategy, especially in multiplayer games. I want to play again!"

Each set comes in two color versions. Any set is a complete two-player game (playing time is less than an hour), but with both versions you can play a 4-player game, or just a two-player game of Flyborgs vs. Flyborgs (or whatever). And all X-Bugs sets can be combined for bigger games!
