Pure NintendoRachel PoliDec 20219/10Little Bug is a great game all around. It has an immersive world through vivid graphics, appropriate music, and fun gameplay mechanics.

Niche GamerFeb 20227/10While this game has a unique charm to it, it ultimately doesn’t feel completed and I hope that that’s the case. I did have fun piquing my brain for ways to solve some harder segments. The saddening part of the culmination with this game is that it somewhat feels empty without too much other than, gather treasures and move right.

GameGrinSamiee TeeDec 20217/10A storybook with half the pages missing, Little Bug rushes towards an ending whilst attempting to leave everything in the dust, including its fantastic gameplay. Take your time and you'll find a shining core of fun, challenge, and excitement, failing to be extinguished by its lacking narrative.
