Description: In Bug Invaders you need to protect the survivors from bugs using your giant hands until help arrives! Take advantage of your surroundings to squish those nasty critters and get your people to safety.
Nobody knows for certain what happened or how it all started. The few survivors that remain, stay hidden in safe houses hoping for someone or something to get them out of the desolated city. Each day that passes, those nasty bugs take the life of more and more survivors. No one dares to fight them, people can only run and hope to find a place to call home. Maybe you can help, seeing that you have the power to find the survivors and protect them while they escape since you know… you have pair of giant hands. Destroy those human-sized bugs that threatens the survivors. Pick those nasty creatures up, throw them, squash them, do anything in your hands to stop them, at least for a couple of minutes while the survivors escape.
Review: Bug Invaders is a game in which you play a giant entity and you need to stop wave after wave of bugs. If you don’t like bugs I suppose this game can be a little scary as they crawl towards you, but they are more alien-looking than real-life looking. You can squash the bugs with your hands, throw them throw things at them and generally stop them from eating all your static little green men. Its simple, boring and there is no skill or challenge here at all. But for £0.79 I think this is still worth a look if only to mess around with it. It’s not terrible I suppose, but there is nothing to get excited about neither.
