A classic game, needs fixes
An adventure that expands on its preceding game, with expansive additions of more maps, quests, enemies and gear. It is also difficult to play for the wrong reasons… It’s an evolution of the initial release that the sequel games don’t retain, especially through its seemingly slapdash, yet gritty tale of ragtags, a humble charm that Bug Heroes 2 fails to retain in spite of better controls and additional defense mechanics. That’s why I’m saddened to bring up the state of bugs - glitches - in this app, severely marred by crashes, usually preceded by music abruptly muting and some graphics unloading. If you don’t know certain quirks, you will find it difficult to complete the first several steps of your journey, no less hope for any 100% completion. I think Bug Heroes is an important IP because of its unique foot in the genre of base defense games, of course helped by its world’s imperfect charm, but also due to its seniority, experience, and edge as its own game in the App Store, and being one of the first releases from Foursaken Media. However important or not, it feels sad that a classic as lovable as this is left in an unfixed state.
