When I first played this game I said to myself, "How much harder can this get?" But after a while, I figured out it wasn't hard, you just needed to play the game and get used to it. Bit challenging, yesery, but it's worth your time. Here is a description of each level:
Level 1: Plain, Simple, Easy Bugs. How to beat it: Get into a shell opening, (big)
Level 2: Simple, like level 1, takes a bit long. How to beat it: Get into a shell opening, (big)
Level 3: Water level, If you get eaten by a fish, you're dead! Watch out for those mosquitoes! How to beat it: Get into a shell opening
Level 4: Yikes, the feet! When you fly on the dragonfly don't get to high or else the bat will get you! And you know what will happen, (you die).
Level 5: This is S-I-M-P-L-E! Jump onto the dragonfly, (and again, don't go too high or else the bat will get you!) Look at the bottom of your screen, see the meter in red? How to beat the level: Using the Dragonfly, click with your mouse to shoot out stuff aiming at the bee-hive on a tree! When your whole meter is gone and the hive explodes, you've beaten it!
Level 6: Larva seem harmless, but if they get you, they're not! How to beat the level: Get into a shell opening at the end of the level! Oh yeah, on your way there, when you see a lot of shells, two tother in a row and a long line of shells and a few Larva before it, don't get those shells! Those are the red and brown bugs!
Level 7: How to beat the game: Roll into the queen so your meter at the bottom of your screen reduces some of the red!
Level 8: Don't get caught under the fireflies' spotligh or else they bring you back close to the beginning of the level! It's VERY frusterating! You'll die if you fall into the acid. There's dynamite. Key: Get into a shell opening.
Level 9: Watch out when jumping on slim ropes! If you get into the lava, you're dead! ANTS TURN INTO GHOSTS ONCE DEFEATED! How to beat the level: Get into a shell opening
Level 10: All I've gotta say: Defeat the King Ant!
Next step: You've beaten the game!

Dear peoples, All of the people out there who hate bugdom are wired. Don' listen to them (at all!!) Bugdom is awsome, the whole 5th grade has it on every comp. and like EVERYONE plays it! Why do people play it and make such a big fuss over it? The answer is simple! People love the game! (EASY!) Rollie is soooooo cute and so is buddy. The mad Taxi Driver is cool, but hard to control, so it's a challenge! I can't belive people don' like this game. I love it! People ove it, bugs love it, and ants hate it. There are cheat codes as well as the regular jump,kick, and roll buttons, there are buttons that give you green keys so you can go in any door. Buttons that allow you get coin,life and more rolling power.You skip levels with some and even beat the game! with others. Nearly all of the buttons are combined of the F1,f2,f3 buttons on your keyboard. The 1 and 2 buttons makes the screendifferent sizes. 1 magnifies the screen and 2 makes it smaller. I love Bugdom! I hope you do to after reading my review. SINCERERLY, A BUGDOM LOVER- Christina Mills
AWESOME GAME . . .

The first time I played Bugdom was on my school's computer in the library. I was immediately taken with the game's plot line and graphics and music. Since then, I've become obessessed with it! It's one of my favorite games, and often times, I stay after school just to play it, since at lunch there isn't much time. This is one of my favorite games, ever. I would recommend it to anyone! The graphics are breathtaking with a look to them that is so real, the first time I saw the tarantulas, I was freaked out a little, as I am when I see a real one. The levels are quite hard, especially when you don't know the cheat codes--I couldn't beat it without them! I give this game five stars for everything it contains!
THE GREATEST 3-D GAME EVER!

I started playing bugdom on a demo I found on an imac at school.
I loved the game.It's graphics are incredible!The one problem is
that you can't go to the previous level. But,I know a cheat code
that allows you to go to any level-even ones you havn't been to
yet. This is the code: when on the main menu hold down the ~ key
and double click START, then a list of all the levels will appear
on the screen cick on the level you want to play and your ready
to go!

I'm 11 years old and at my school every chance my class gets in computer class we play bugdom. The highest anybody has ever gotten in the levels in my class is level 3 (not very far) but we only have 40 minutes and we can't save our games. I love this game because its so fun to try to find the keys for all the different doors and trying to get to other levels and asking other people how far they are in it and how to get things. My favorite thing that you can do in bugdom is when the bug can curl up and and move around really fast hitting all the ants just by striking the space bar. I think you should consider playing bugdom because its so axilurating (I probably spelt that wrong) and when your bored you'll have something to do and then you won't be bored any more. Please I'm beggin yah! try it!

I purchased the PC version of Bugdom after thoroughly enjoying the Mac version. Unfortunately, I was sorely disappointed. The graphics are distorted and sometimes backwards. Worse yet the game crashes when you complete Level One :(
Even more disappointing than the game itself is the lack of customer service or technical support for the product. I emailed the address in the CD over ten times and received no response.
Caveat emptor.

... Whenever my class gets free time to do whatever they want, we go play Bugdom in our computer lab. I gave this game 5 stars because the levels are long and there are 8 levels counting the two bosses. I like finding all the keys to the doors and all the obstacles you have to go through to beat the levels. It's so fun to curl up and go around really fast hitting ants. The highest level I have ever gotten to is 4. People should play this game because it is really fun and it will keep you busy having fun and you won't get bored playing it.

I have played Bugdom at school & I love it! I was able to complete levels 1- 7 and 10, but I never could complete levels 8 and 9. The 3-dimensional picture and smooth, quick, and realistic movements make it appear as if you're really there. The critters are all so cute, even King Thorax. This game is like totally cool. They should make a movie of it! Now I'm telling you- you're gonna just LOVE this game. Bugdom ROCKS!
Having trouble!

I have tried to install the game I bought, but it will not install on my computer. So I tried it on another computer and I did not get it to install on that computer either. If you could give me some help on this problem I would sure appreciate it. The game I purchased is BUGDOM.
