Bug Out

A strategy game with a bug theme. The game is played on an 8x8 grid or chessboard. Twenty-eight Bug counters are placed on all of the squares around the edges of the board. There are four each of seven types of Bugs: Bee, Ant, Ladybug, Grass Hopper, Beetle, Spider, and Dragon Fly. Each type of Bug moves differently. The players take turns moving uncontrolled Bugs. When a player moves a Bug, one of the player’s Control Markers is placed on it. If you line up three Bugs under your control in a row (orthogonal, not diagonal), then you score one point and your control makers are removed from the Bugs. The winner is the first player to accumulate seven points.
