About the Game

You are an aphid officer, assigned command of a cutting-edge carrier turtle. Everything you need to operate in enemy territory has been grafted to its innards. Your mission? Turn the tide of the war by destroying the enemy’s infrastructure in a daring mission deep behind their lines.

Strategize

You will face layered defenses and relentless counterattack. Plan your operations to take advantage of terrain and synergies between your bugs. Victory will require quick thinking and coordination.

Jump Into the Action

Take control of individual bugs in high-octane dogfights and armored duels. Outflank your enemies using an innovative control scheme for air combat.

Manage Resources

You will be deep in enemy territory, away from friendly supply lines. Gather resources by foraging from the environment, plundering enemy installations, and recycling the bodies of the fallen. Produce the fuel, guns, ammunition, and bugs you need aboard your turtle, but make sure to plan ahead—its facilities are limited!

Expand Your Arsenal

Capture advanced resources from enemy installations to build new weapons. Push into more heavily defended territory to seize the most complex resources and field the fiercest weapons known to aphidkind.

Work Together

Coordinate with friends to run the most effective operations possible. Attack on multiple fronts and coordinate your bugs to form the ultimate insect combat force.
