Product Description

X-Bugs is a fast-moving combination of luck, skill, and strategy. You control an army of microscopic mutated monsters. Each bug is a plastic chip. Flip the chips to attack--grab resources, eat the enemy bugs, and capture your foe's bases to win! Each bug has a special power to attack or defend. Outmaneuver and devour your foe, and lead your swarm to victory!

The Chitinians
Once the slaves of the mechanized Flyborgs, the Chitinians are now free to conquer with their own fangs, claws, and biological weapons. Six types of microscopic menace include the deadly Exterminator, the Larva, that can hatch into replacement warriors, the Acid Spitter, and the web-shooting Spider!

The Sovietoptera
Fearless and stalwart, the "Red Ants" were the last secret project of the USSR, created to save Mother Russian from the alien bugs. Now they're everywhere... Six types of crawlie Commies, from the humble but persistent Worker to the nearly unkillable, flame-throwing Tank and the sneaky Saboteur!

These armies come in two versions. X-Bugs Set 3 has red Chitinians and green Sovietoptera chips. Set 4 has black Chitinians and light green Sovietoptera. With both sets, 3 or 4 can play. Or stage a showdown between two armies of the same type!
