Featured Game: The Bug Game!

While we continue our world tour of featured games, why don't we revisit a game from the darkest corner of Shadowglen, The Bug Game. Simply named and deceptively simple to play, can you swat your way to another 10 EPICon points? The owner of the game (as much as you can own a bit of rock and a jar of bugs, I suppose) says that if you can get in 400 hits before 5 bugs manage to slip away, there are bonus EPICon points in it for you! And if these bugs are too close for comfort, you may enjoy the mobile version of this game! I'm having a lot of fun playing on my Tangerine Touchphone.

Don't forget, you can earn extra points every day by playing our previously featured games. Seashell Spotter, Subeku, Stealth Bomber, Ziara Raceway, and Divine Discs will each award an additional 10 points to your total!

Today is the final day to get your submissions for the Cosplay Contest! For those wanting to enter, make sure you get it done by the end of the day, because once registration closes, it closes for good!

Ugh 400. My hand gets tired at 200. But did get past 400 twice, it only counted it once though

I attempted on my computer and I got to 200. It's just.. really stressful. I tried to go on it with my iPod touch but it says "You've already played recently! You can continue to play for fun, but you won't win or lose anything". It also won't load the black part where the bugs are supposed to be crawling. >_< Just ???

The game didn't go through for me and it says "You've already played recently! You can continue to play for fun, but you won't win or lose anything." across the bottom, are we supposed to wait between games or something?

It almost works on my Droid Razr, but the swatter goes off the page, and doesn't hit where my finger touches :(

lol I was so proud of myself for smashing 553 bugs without letting one escape before quitting and then I see the requirement is actually 400. I need to read better.

Thumbs up though for being able to squash more than one bug at a time when they're close together. I've played other similar games that did allow that.

Is there some way to mute this that I'm missing? I've got a movie open in another tab, and all I can hear is the music from this game. x.x

I'm loving all of these new titles and achievement prize items though. ^-^

So if the required score is 125 and I have completed it twice how can my cumulative score be less than 200?

My mouse is kind of unresponsive and hard to control, so 400 is going to be really hard for me to reach.
