In Bugs! Bugs! Bugs!, players draw cards to collect insect puppets. Drawing an ant ends your turn, while the stinkbug forces you to take its puppet even from others.

Who Is This Game For?
This game is targeted at families and children aged 5 and up, with easy rules and a short playtime. It’s ideal for casual gamers and young players looking for a light set collection experience.
How It Works
